description This contribution consists of two distinct parts. The first is devoted to a critical revision of the reductive image of the misnamed Paris School, still used today to define (and sometimes caricature) a certain scientific milieu, in which the historical anthropology of the ancient world has contributed to the emergence of polytheism as an object of study in its own right. The second part of the contribution consists of a public talk, dated to 2007, which illustrates the author's dialogue with that same scientific milieu, in which she was trained, and with a particularly representative study of Jean-Pierre Vernant on the Greek gods.
