Fondé sur une ethnographie pédestre, ambulatoire, comparative et de longue durée, ce papier d’humeur se propose de dénoncer ou de nuancer ces propos cent fois entendus qui donnent des peuples un peu en marge de la globalisation et de leurs ethnologues une image peu flatteuse.
If this were the case the anthropologist’s responsibility would boil down to two tasks, neither of which features in their training : attempting to "talk" to journalists and trying to respond to the most material requests of their hosts.

His parents sent him to Paris to study law; but as a result of lodging in the Hôtel Cluny, where Joseph Nicolas Delisle had his observatory, he was drawn to astronomy, and became the zealous and favoured pupil of both Delisle and Pierre Lemonnier.
Having completed his legal studies, he was about to return to Bourg to practise as an advocate, when Lemonnier obtained permission to send him to Berlin, to make observations on the lunar parallax in concert with those of NL Lacaille at the Cape of Good Hope.
His house became an astronomical seminary, and amongst his pupils were JBJ Delambre, Giuseppe Piazzi, Pierre Méchain, and his own nephew Michel Lalande.

Lalande was fascinated by astronomy and, although he continued to study law, he also attended Delisle's astronomy lectures at the Collège Royale as well as Pierre Lemonnier's lectures on mathematical physics.
As no suitable instrument was available in Berlin, Lemonnier lent him his own quadrant which was reported to be the best such instrument in France.
To do this it was, of course, necessary to know the precise amount by which the Earth differed from a perfect sphere and Lalande disagreed with Lemonnier on the issue.
