Study Day: Archivists, Storytellers and Anthropologists

From October 13, 2026 to October 13, 2026, at Université paris Nanterre : Study Day: Archivists, Storytellers and Anthropologists (théâtre).

This Study Day presents findings from a collective investigation into folktales gathered by female ethnologists in various African countries between 1930 and 1970. Storytellers and anthropologists discuss their recent explorations of the ethnologists' archives, where these folktales are preserved (Bibliothèque Éric de Dampierre, Laboratoire d'Ethnologie et de Sociologie Comparative). They examine the stories they found and the context in which they were collected. These findings are discussed and contextualized with the help of archivists, librarians, and ethnologists familiar with the ethnologists' archives and the research paths of those who collected and analyzed these folktales.
