Avec Grégory Delaplace, anthropologue. Cet épisode a été tourné en public à la Gaîté Lyrique.Je ne crois pas aux fantômes, mais ils me font peur. Un bon mort doit être bien mort et enterré. On peut s’en souvenir avec tendresse mais on n’a pas forcément envie qu'il apparaisse.Grégory Delaplace est anthropologue à l'École pratique des hautes études. Il a notamment écrit “Les Intelligences particulières” (Vues de l’Esprit, 2021), un livre sur des maisons hantées en Angleterre ainsi que “La voix des Fantômes” (Seuil, 2024), où il examine divers rituels funéraires à travers le monde. Il travaille sur les différentes manières dont les sociétés organisent leurs relations avec les morts et sur comment les morts rechignent parfois à se laisser oublier et reviennent pour exiger des choses des vivants. À quoi servent nos rituels funéraires, à se souvenir ou à oublier ? Quand est-ce que les morts échappent à la place qu'on a voulu leur donner ? Que nous veulent les fantômes ? Un épisode des Idées Larges avec Grégory Delaplace, anthropologue.  Références : - Jean Bazin, “Des clous dans La Joconde.

The Lòlop’ò of Southwest China’s Yunnan Province have a folktale in which they, Han Chinese, and Tibetans were given the technology of writing. The Han man was wealthy, purchased paper, and wrote on paper. And so the Han continue to have writing today. The Tibetan man wrote on an animal hide, and so the Tibetans now have writing as well. The Lòlop’ò man, being poor, wrote on buckwheat pancakes. He ate the pancakes on the way home, and the Lòlop’ò now keep their texts orally among a group of ritual specialists. In Erik Mueggler’s Songs for Dead Parents: Corpse, Text, and World in Southwest China (University of Chicago Press, 2017), Lòlop’ò oral literature and Han Chinese writing feature prominently in local “work on the dead.” For the Lòlop’ò, one’s familial ancestors, and non-familial ancestors are present in the world, and people maintain complex intimate relations with them that are not constrained by death. These relations find expression in rituals in which souls are given material body and then dispersed again, in laments and chants, and in gravestones inscribed with Chinese. In examining these various factors, this book provides new pathways for studying the anthropology of death, and for understanding ethnic minority experience in Southwest China. Timothy Thurston is Lecturer in Chinese Studies at the University of Leeds. His research examines language at the nexus of tradition and modernity in China’s Tibet. Learn more about your ad choices.

First things first: this is an outstanding book. In the course of The Paper Road: Archive and Experience in the Botanical Exploration of West China and Tibet (University of California Press, 2011), Erik Mueggler weaves together the stories of two botanists traveling through western China and Tibet in a lyrically-written story that treats the nature of writing, bodies, beauty, images, violence, and history in creating experiences of the earth. The characters are compelling, the story is important, and the work speaks to readers well beyond the field of East Asian Studies. Listen to Mueggler's comments, and then read the book. You will learn much, as I certainly did. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
