Ritual, Festival, Celebration, and Public Display. The papers themselves are not necessarily the
same as their original presentations, and represent only a few of the authors who have presented
at this annual conference over the years. This annual conference began in 1997 and the 15th was
held in 2011 at the Sorbonne. This book reflects on the field of Ritual Studies, and the role and
influence of the conference--Paraphrase from the introduction.
