abstract:
[FR] Depuis le Galate Ortiagon, mentionné par Polybe, jusqu’aux traditions insulaires médiévales des Mabinogion et de la Razzia des Boeufs de Cooley, toute une série de héros celtiques atteignent la royauté à partir du moment où ils manifestent leur excellence dans trois activités, ou trois états, organisés selon l’idéologie indo-européenne des trois fonctions. De plus, la conquête de la royauté est continuellement associée à un mariage avec des femmes représentant la souveraineté. En incluant dans cette série deux héros qui ne sont pas celtes, le Romain Sertorius, chef d’une armée de ressortissants hispaniques, et le Lusitanien Viriathe, dont l’appartenance linguistique est discutée, nous essayons de remettre en cause l’approche ethnographique dans l’Antiquité : les notices ethnographiques étaient nécessairement contrastées, mais une analyse comparative pourrait nous permettre d’évaluer leur fiabilité concernant les peuples barbares de l’Antiquité.
[EN] The access program to sovereignty in the Celtic world : for a Celtic political anthropology.
From the Galatian Ortiagon, mentioned by Polybius, till the insular mediaeval traditions in the Mabinogi and in the Cattle Raid of Cooley, a whole series of Celtic heroes reach kingship as soon as they manifest their excellence in three activities or positions organized according to the Indo-european ideology of the three functions. Moreover, the conquest of kingship is continuously linked to a marriage with women representing sovereignty. By including in the series two heroes which are not Celts, the Roman Sertorius, leader of an army of Hispanic citizens, and the Lusitanian Viriatos, whose linguistic appartenance is debated, we try to question the ethnographic approach in ancient times : ethnographic notices were necessarily contrasted, but a comparative analysis could permit us to evaluate their fiability concerning barbarian peoples of Antiquity.
