Dans la corrida classique, d'origine andalouse, le taureau est mis à mort. Dans la course camarguaise, les règles proscrivent son exécution ; il est traité comme un héros qui porte les valeurs de la collectivité. Frédéric Saumade, à partir d'études de terrain effectuées en Andalousie et en Camargue, met au jour toute la cohérence qui, au-delà de la différence des jeux d'arènes et des techniques d'élevage, relie ces pratiques. Dans les deux cas, le bovin « sauvage » apparaît comme une métaphore de la société. L'homme entre en contact avec la bête afin d'établir avec elle un dialogue traduit dans le rite et le langage tauromachiques. Cette relation est considérée selon une double temporalité : celle de l'histoire, constitutive de la mythologie taurine, et celle qui suit et répète le cycle des saisons. Ainsi se révèlent une éthique traditionaliste - replacer l'homme dans une nature idéalisée - et des aspirations modernes exprimées dans le spectacle urbain des arènes.

Published in 1932, Death in the Afternoon reveals its author at the height of his intellectual and stylistic powers. By that time, Hemingway had already won critical and popular acclaim for his short stories and novels of the late twenties. A mature and self-confident artist, he now risked his career by switching from fiction to nonfiction, from American characters to Spanish bullfighters, from exotic and romantic settings to the tough world of the Spanish bullring, a world that might seem frightening and even repellant to those who do not understand it. Hemingway's nonfiction has been denied the attention that his novels and short stories have enjoyed, a state of affairs this Companion seeks to remedy, breaking new ground by applying theoretical and critical approaches to a work of nonfiction. It does so in original essays that offer a thorough, balanced examination of a complex, boundary-breaking, and hitherto neglected text. The volume is broken into sections dealing with: the composition, reception, and sources of Death in the Afternoon; cultural translation, cultural criticism, semiotics, and paratextual matters; and the issues of art, authorship, audience, and the literary legacy of Death in the Afternoon. The contributors to the volume, four men and seven women, lay to rest the stereotype of Hemingway as a macho writer whom women do not read; and their nationalities (British, Spanish, American, and Israeli) indicate that Death in the Afternoon, even as it focuses on a particular national art, discusses matters of universal concern.Contributors: Miriam B.

The bullfight in its modern plebeian form (bullfighting on foot) took place in the city of Seville, linked to the municipal slaughterhouse, in the 18th century; Since then it has become a spectacle that attracts the masses. This work analyzes the legal deals that linked the various stakeholders in this show: the bullfighters (matadors, picadores, banderilleros), the ranchers, the Sevillian teachers (owners of the bullring), the businessmen who organized festivities and a wide catalog of artisans who lend their expertise to that end. In particular, the nature of the provision of services between bullfighters and businessmen is studied, in its various forms (individual or seasonal performances, the contract of a wrestler or a whole gang ...), as well as the attribution of the consequences harmful of the mishaps that occurred during the fight. A documentary appendix contains the references of the localized notarial deeds, with a complete transcription of several, particularly significant ones.
