Summary

In a classical manner, the rituals of the calendar provide information on the society that creates them. Order and disorder in tradition are analysed here in the monographic framework of the village of Itxassou (Lapurdi). This text defends a dynamic focus of the so-called "traditional" uses, of the conditions in which they appeared, of decadence and reinvention of this qualification.
