Resumo: When Henri Breuil (1877-1961) begins his paleontological works, the context is relatively favourable to the contribution of Catholics to prehistorical studies. Having been introduced to palaeontology by Guibert, at the Catholic Institute of Paris, Breuil was passionate about prehistory; as a young priest, he obtained to dedicate himself completely to this science. This article suggests analysing Henri Breuil’s first works on the cave art and underlining the link with his personality and the revival that he brought at this moment in the professionalization, the way of envisaging and of exercising the palaeontology. Furthermore, Breuil is symbolic of the professionalization and the specialization of some Christian intellectuals. By 1860, the palaeontologist priests were interested in everything in palaeontology, physical anthropology and prehistory, even in archaeology; between 1900 and 1910, Breuil eventually specialized in the cave art even if he is also interested in prehistoric tools and bones.

Ayant suivi les cours de l’abbé Guibert, Breuil se passionne pour la préhistoire et, jeune prêtre, il obtient de se consacrer entièrement à cette science. Cet article se propose d’analyser les premiers travaux d’Henri Breuil sur l’art rupestre et de souligner le lien avec sa personnalité et le renouveau qu’il apporta à ce moment dans la professionnalisation, la manière d’envisager et d’exercer la paléontologie. De plus, l’abbé Breuil est emblématique de la professionnalisation et de la spécialisation des intellectuels chrétiens. Vers 1860, les abbés paléontologues s’intéressaient un peu à tout en paléontologie, anthropologie physique et préhistoire, voire en archéologie; entre 1900 et 1910, Breuil finit par se spécialiser dans l’art des cavernes même s’il s’intéresse aussi aux outils et ossements préhistoriques.Quando Henri Breuil (1877-1961) iniciou seu trabalho paleontológico, o contexto era relativamente favorável à contribuição dos católicos aos estudos pré-históricos. Tendo seguido os cursos do abade Guibert, Breuil é um apaixonado pela pré-história e, como jovem sacerdote, obtém o direito de se dedicar inteiramente a esta ciência. Este artigo se propõe a analisar as primeiras obras de Henri Breuil sobre arte rupestre e sublinhar o vínculo com sua personalidade e a renovação que trouxe nesta época na profissionalização, na forma de pensar e exercer a paleontologia. Além disso, o padre Breuil é emblemático da profissionalização e especialização dos intelectuais cristãos. Por volta de 1860, os paleontólogos dos abades se interessavam por tudo em paleontologia, antropologia física e pré-história, até mesmo em arqueologia; entre 1900 e 1910, Breuil acabou se especializando em arte rupestre, embora também se interessasse por ferramentas e ossos pré-históricos.Universidade LaSalle - Unilasalle Canoas2018-08-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Dialogo/article/view/434310.18316/dialogo.v0i38.4343Diálogo; n. 38 (2018); p. 09-222238-9024reponame:Revista Diálogoinstname:Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)instacron:UNILASALLEenghttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Dialogo/article/view/4343/pdfCopyright (c) 2018 Diálogoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPerru, Olivier2023-01-04T19:25:08Zoai:ojs.revistas.unilasalle.edu.br:article/4343Revistahttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/DialogoONGhttps://revistas.unilasalle.edu.br/index.php/Dialogo/oairevistas@unilasalle.edu.br||dialogo@unilasalle.edu.br2238-90241519-3640opendoar:2023-01-04T19:25:08Revista Diálogo - Universidade La Salle (UNILASALLE)false
