French linguist and mythologist. He was also a member of the Académie Française. Using his linguistic talents, he made comparative research that revealed that the myths of Indo-European languages, such as those of India, Iran, Germanic, Celtic, and Roman, were organized based on a common worldview system. This worldview, which he called the "Indo-European trifunctional system," is based on the idea that three principles corresponding to the social roles of (1) priests, (2) warriors, and (3) producers cooperate in all areas of the universe, including the natural and supernatural worlds. He has written over 50 books, including Myths and Epics in three volumes (1968-1973).

フランスの言語学者、神話学者。アカデミー・フランセーズの会員でもあった。語学の才を駆使した比較研究によって、インド、イラン、ゲルマン、ケルト、古代ローマなど、インド・ヨーロッパ語族の神話が、共通の世界観の体系に基づいて組織されていたことを明らかにした。それは〔1〕祭司、〔2〕戦士、〔3〕生産者のそれぞれの社会的任務に対応する3種の原理が、自然界や超自然界など宇宙のあらゆる分野でも協同しているとみなすもので、この世界観を彼は、「インド・ヨーロッパ的三機能体系」とよんだ。『神話と叙事詩』3巻(1968~1973)など、50冊を超える著書がある。 [吉田敦彦 2018年7月20日] 『デュメジル著、松村一夫訳『ゲルマン人の神々』(1980・日本ブリタニカ/1993・国文社)』▽『丸山静・前田耕作編『デュメジル・コレクション』全4冊(ちくま学芸文庫)』 [参照項目] |出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
