Echoing an approach that Jean-Guy Goulet has implemented over the years, both with the Wayùu of Colombia and with the Dene Tha of Canada, and in reaction to one of his papers on prayer and the media published in Recherches amérindiennes au Québec, I present the approach of the intergenerational knowledge transmission workshops (ATIS), developed with Jarich Oosten and the Nunavut Arctic College in the early 2000s, and on the use of the camera. Through the example of qilaniq, a divination ritual that the Inuit have practiced since the 16th century, I suggest that the format of the ATIS allows to respond to two great classic criticisms addressed to anthropologists. The first, formulated by J. Fabian, deals with a problem of temporality, the time shared during the meeting between the ethnologist and his participant being different than that of the anthropological narrative. The second concerns the manufacture of anthropological knowledge widely attacked by postmodernists. I argue that by making the context of enunciation more transparent and by favoring an experiential anthropology close to that advocated by Jean-Guy Goulet, the ATIS makes it possible to consider the anthropologist as a participant, and not just a facilitator. In the context of performances recorded on video, “acting as if” opens up new possibilities in terms of experimentation. At the same time it allows Inuit elders to highlight their traditions at a time marked by urgent needs in the field of education and in the transfer of knowledge.

Spiders and insects play an important role in Hopi Indian mythology and religion. They often appear in ancient rock art, on wall-paintings, and on ceremonial paraphernalia. They play a significant role in myths and tales for good and bad. Insects are conceptualized as beneficial, life-bearing creatures in the origin myths of rituals or as evil assistants in witchcraft and black magic. There is no general systematic study of spiders and insects in Hopi Indian mythology and religion. There are, however, a small number of studies that focus on particular insects, and there are, of course, references to insects throughout the literature. This preliminary study will explore various ways that spiders and insects figure in Hopi thought and behavior.

Who is d'Artagnan? The historical figure has long since faded behind Dumas' creation; but in a similar way, the character of The Three Musketeers no longer exists. Re-imagined a thousand times, adapted to every fictional medium, transformed with every reading and every new production, he is now linked to the original work that founded his success only by a few loose characteristics - a name, an ideal, some friends and enemies. While these traits still remain in each incarnation of the character, they no longer depend on Alexandre Dumas' work, but on the context of its rewriting. In this process of change, the series format has had a paradoxical effect: its proximity to the logic of the serial novel brings the serialized d'Artagnan curiously close to his origins, but also makes him all the more elastic. We will focus on this paradox by comparing two relatively recent rewritings of the character: the first in the Soviet series D'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers (1978-1994) which, while attempting to reproduce the novel down to the last line, succeeds in turning it into an ode to life in Eastern Europe before and after the fall of the Communist regime; the second in the series The Musketeers (2014-2016), which, while completely detached from the original novel in terms of plot, manages to translate the chivalric aspect of the Duma-esque musketeers to embody anxieties specific to the 21st century.
