Résumé
J. C. Gomes da Silva—Whom Do they Resemble? An attempt at delineating the logic inherent to the epical discourse through an examination of Pierre Smith's recent theses. Attention is focused upon the fact that such a study demands a new evaluation of the guiding concepts and principles of anthropology. While P. Smith deals chiefly with African examples, the present essay makes a privileged use of Ossete legends (Northern Caucasus) and Slavic epical traditions.
