Nous allons tenter de mettre en lumière l’archéologie de la source d’une légende se déroulant au château du Guirbaden, intitulée Die Gerichtsnacht des Schloss Girbaden et d’interpréter ce récit en démêlant les faits archéologiques et historiques des faits imaginaires. Cet article a été rédigé dans le cadre d’une thèse de doctorat visant à analyser l’invention, les migrations et remaniements des légendes de fondation et des légendes étiologiques – c’est-à-dire des légendes explicatives – depuis leur première mise par écrit au Moyen Âge ou à l’époque moderne jusqu’aux opérations de collecte du XIXe siècle.

  • Lettre De La Tribune De Saint-Barnard
    LETTRE DE LA TRIBUNE DE SAINT-BARNARD Numéro 17 – février 2017 ISSN 2258-7640 - Dépôt légal à parution Les Amis de l’orgue de Saint-Barnard Romans - Drôme La petite cuisine qui prévaut à l’élaboration des Lettres de la tribune consiste à creuser les fonds documentaires les plus variés afin d’élire les sujets qui donneront de l’orgue et de son répertoire des visages sans cesse renouvelés. Alors que nous approchons doucement de la vingtaine de numéros, nous ne nous priverons pas de dresser un petit constat en forme de satisfecit : quelle variété d’approches ! Pour autant, nous n’en avons pas fini avec le sujet et il est loin le moment où on l’aura épuisé : pas moins d’une vingtaine de nouveaux numéros sont d’ores et déjà prêts –ou en chantier ! Dès lors, comment choisir ? Lequel faire paraître maintenant ?… Sans déflorer totalement nos projets, nous pouvons vous dire que, alors qu’une nouvelle monographie tenait la corde pour être publiée en ce début d’année, une rencontre singulière a décidé d’un revirement éditorial afin de préparer, pour décembre, un numéro 18, monographique lui aussi, et que l’on peut d’ores et déjà annoncer comme contenant une magnifique exclusivité ! Aussi, pour ne pas faire se suivre deux monographies, nous avons consacré ce n°17 à un sujet qui n’est pas en reste d’originalité : « Femmes et orgue ». Non que son propos sous-entende une quelconque approche spécifiquement féminine de l’orgue, ce dossier met essentiellement en lumière plusieurs figures peu connues de femmes organistes qui furent parmi les premières à briller, au même titre que leurs nombreux confrères, en tant que titulaires de tribunes prestigieuses, concertistes acclamées et professeurs recherchées.
