Les rites annuels de la maison et des communautés locales en transformation : intérieur et extérieur des lieux de vie communautaires

The outside around the house (ie 家) is the local community (section, kumi 組, and area, ku 凶), and the town of Sasaguri is composed of an aggregate of sections and areas. The present article studies the annual events of the town of Sasaguri, analyzing them according to three criteria that are places, actors and aims. Based on this analysis, the double dynamics between continuation and transformation in time, and inside and outside in space will be considered. There is also another outside in Sasaguri having impact on its inside, that is the pilgrims coming to visit its circuit of temples and oratories of the holy places of Shin-Shikoku (Shin-Shikoku reijō 新四国霊場). The events inside houses are framed by the setting of special apparatus which convert their spaces from the everyday life (ke ケ) to the festive (hare ノヽレ), and this setting tends to determine the events' actors and aims. Examining these particular moments of houses, it will be possible to shed light on the situation of contemporary families in this town. The participation of women has an important meaning in these annual events. On the other hand, events organized on the local community level have various relationships with regard to houses. Certain community events are held inside houses, imposing a big burden on women, so much so that the continuation of these events as well as that of the groups organizing them often depend on their availability. There are varying attempts being made in order to continue these events as far as possible. 家を取り巻くソトは、地域共同体 (区、組) であり、篠栗町はこれらで構成されている。この篠栗町の 事例をあげながら、場所、主催者、目的の 3 基準をもって年中行事を分析し、家と地域共同体の継続，変化とウチとソトという時空、二重の力学を考える。また、新四国霊場を有する篠栗町のソトからやっ てくる巡礼者の影響もある。家のウチで行う行事は「ケ」から「ハレ」に変換する装置の変化により、行 事主催者^行事目的の変化を促した。これらを考察することで現代家族の有りようが見えてくる。そこ には女性の関与が大きい。また、地域行事はイエごとに関わる集団の違いから、各イエの行事が多様 化し^ いる。中でも、家のウチに入って来る行事では、特に女性の負担が大きく、行事や集団の継承存 続の行方を女性が握っており、継承存続への工夫を様々に行って、る。
