Summary:
Under the Ancien Régime, fairs and the games they attracted were held throughout France, varying in duration and prestige according to the importance of the towns concerned. This book analyses the expression and deployment of this fairground activity, including the peregrinations of the fairgoers themselves over a span of almost two centuries. Sous l'Ancien régime, les foires, et les jeux qu'elles attirent, sont présentes dans toute la France, d'une durée et d'un prestige variables selon l'importance des villes. Le présent ouvrage analyse l'expression et le déploiement de cette activité foraine en incluant les pérégrinations des forains eux-mêmes sur un empan de près de deux siècles.
