Daniel Fabre was a remarkable anthropologist of writing. Although his œuvre started with a classic focus on orality, he questioned early the great division between oral and writing and directed his attention toward the most ordinary forms of scriptural practice. Three books are particularly interesting in this respect: Par écrit, écritures ordinaires and Une histoire à soi, centered on the notion of ordinary and everyday. Reading those books allows us to refine and reorient the issues relative to cultural domination, which makes them quite precious for sociologists.
