About This Book

Le texte propose un panorama des coutumes et légendes liées à la nuit de Noël en plusieurs régions, décrivant la veillée familiale, la bûche, la messe de minuit, le réveillon, les gâteaux et les cadeaux (arbre et soulier). Il rassemble récits populaires, usages locaux et variations provinciales — Normandie, Berry, Provence, Bretagne — en mêlant descriptions vivantes de scènes domestiques, explications rituelles et sources littéraires ou orales. Chaque chapitre expose traditions concrètes et légendes de veillée, tandis que l'auteur signale ses matériaux, ses correspondants et son projet de collectionner et diffuser ces pratiques pour mieux faire connaître les richesses folkloriques de Noël.
