Daniel Fabre: from ‘John of the Bear’ to the Bird-Man of Lascaux

Abstract:
Daniel Fabre (1947-2016) was a leading anthropologist of Mediterranean Europe. He was also a folklorist, a historian, a literary scholar, and a cultural activist. Acclaimed, even cherished, in France, and especially in his native Midi, his work is largely unknown in the English-speaking world. This appreciation is designed to introduce some of his numerous research interests to Anglophone readers—especially his more folkloric scholarship on Occitan folktales, carnival customs, male youth groups, and peasantmemoirists. It draws in particular on the publications that have appeared since his untimely death.
