Une ethnologie du dialogue et du partage : Camille Lacoste-Dujardin

Résumé Fr En

Ce numéro thématique des Cahiers de Littérature Orale vise à rendre hommage à Camille Lacoste-Dujardin (1921-2016), éminente figure de l’ethnologie française, qui a dédié les cinquante-huit années de sa carrière scientifique à l’étude des complexités de la société kabyle et, au-delà, à celles de toute société humaine.

The aim of this thematic issue is to pay tribute to Camille Lacoste-Dujardin (1921-2016), an eminent figure of French ethnology who dedicated her fifty-eight years scientific career to the study of the complexities of the Kabyle society and, beyond, to those of any human society. Indeed, even though her ethnological researches seem to have been “restricted to a people of mountain dwellers, its language and culture”, actually “they have never been limited neither in space, nor in time”, and “not even strictly confined to some single object of observation”; they have rather always involved “references to larger [sociocultural] wholes”.
