2004cm. 17 x 24, xviii-282 pp. con 12 tavv. f.t. Biblioteca di ?Lares? Il volume nasce da un?esperienza etnografica e storiografica che ha consentito di ricostruire in chiave antropologica le componenti culturali, sociali ed economiche di un paese di confinario valdostano di idioma francoprovenzale. La comunit? ? stata studiata nella sua complessit? in prospettiva diacronica. Gli aspetti normativi e assiologici in rapporto alla vita quotidiana e alla attivit? prevalenti connesse ai vari momenti della sua storia hanno permesso di stabilire il senso e l?intensit? delle mutazioni che hanno segnato il passaggio dalla tradizionale economia agro-pastorale alle fasi successive caratterizzate dall?instaurarsi dell?industria estrattiva e, pi? recentemente, dallo sviluppo turistico e del terziario avanzato. Born from an unusual ethnographical and historiographical experience, this book reconstructs the cultural, social and economic components of a French Provencal border community in Val d?Aosta, from an anthropological point of view. The cultural themes of ordinary life linked to the different stages of this community?s history, enable the reader to grasp the meaning of the alterations that marked the changeover from an agro pastoral economy to the ensuing periods characterised by the mining exploitation on to the more recent development of the tourist industry. 580 gr. xviii-282 p.
