Description
Professor emeritus Jean-Gérard Lapacherie presents a lecture on the Republic of Escartons. Behind this name, often charged with images and local legends, he explores what is myth and what belongs to historical reality.
Author of numerous books on the Queyras published by Éditions Transhumances in Val-des-Prés, Jean-Gérard Lapacherie knows these valleys as much as a research field as a living territory. Here, archives meet handed-down accounts, and the history of the Escartons takes on a more concrete dimension.
