Résumé anglais The Markets at Durtal (Maine-et-Loire). At Durtal, a little town on the borders of Anjou, a market which was established in the 18th century takes place every Tuesday. First, the article discusses the topography of the market; then summarizes the nature and certain aspects of the behaviour of different participants. The counting of participants shows that their role in the market differs according to time of day, age and sex. The market transactions are described in detail, their rather "dramatic" aspects being underlined, and the article ends with a more theoretical discussion of the nature and function of the market.
