The Vth "prapāṭhaka" of the Vādhūlaśrautasūtra

Résumé/Summary : La thèse présentée ici et intitulée The Vth prapāṭhaka of the Vādhūlaśrautasūtra consiste en une édition critique suivie d'une traduction et d'un commentaire du Ve chapitre (prapāṭhaka) du Vādhūlaśrautasūtra consacré au sacrifice animal dit "indépendant" (nirūḍhapaśubandha) de la religion védique. La traduction et le commentaire font l'objet du premier tome de cette thèse et l'édition critique celui du second tome. Le commentaire qui suit la traduction dans le premier tome ne se limite pas aux particularités de la version Vādhūla du nirūḍhapaśubandha. Il s'agit plutôt d'une série de monographies consacrées à des aspects particuliers du sacrifice animal décrit par les Veda, voire à des questions plus générales d'exégèse des textes védiques. Dans ma conclusion à la fin du premier tome je discute aussi de l'antiquité de l'école Vādhūla et de sa place dans le corpus textuel de la branche Taittirīya du Yajurveda noir. THE PRESENT THESIS, ENTITLED THE VTH PRAPAṭHAKA OF THE VADHULASRAUTASUTRA, CONSISTS IN A CRITICAL EDITION, FOLLOWED BY A TRANSLATION AND A COMMENTARY, OF THE VTH CHAPTER (PRAPAṭHAKA) OF THE VADHULASRAUTASUTRA. THE VTH PRAPAṭHAKA IS DEDICATED TO THE DESCRIPTION OF THE SO-CALLED "INDEPENDENT" ANIMAL SACRIFICE (NIRUḍHAPASUBANDHA) IN VEDIC RELIGION. THE TRANSLATION AND THE COMMENTARY ARE PRESENTED IN THE FIRST VOLUME, WHILE THE CRITICAL EDITION MAKES UP THE SECOND VOLUME. The commentary that follows the translation in the first volume is not concerned only with the peculiarities of the Vādhūla version of the nirūḍhapaśubandha. It is more a series of short monographs related to particular aspects of the animal sacrifice described in the Veda and to problems of exegesis of Vedic texts. In my conclusion at the end of the first volume, I also discuss the ancientness of the Vādhūla school, as well as its place within the corpus of Taittirīya texts.
