from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roger Bastide (born April 1, 1898 in Nîmes , † April 10, 1974 in Maisons-Laffitte ) was a French sociologist and anthropologist specializing in the sociology and literature of Brazil .

In 1938 he took the chair of sociology at the new University of São Paulo . As a professor of sociology from 1938 to 1957, he published numerous articles and studies in Portuguese with a focus on African religions in Brazil and Africa.

In 1950 he became professor of ethnology and sociology of religion at the Sorbonne and published on the subjects of sociology and psychoanalysis. He directed the journal L'Année sociologique from 1962 to 1974, the Center for Social Psychiatry and the Laboratory for Sociology of Knowledge. His more recent work deals with mental illnesses among Africans and residents of the Antilles living in France, and with the adaptive behavior of the former deportees, about whom he collected a wealth of records.
