Biography
Jean Haudry was born on 28 May 1934 in
Haudry was a member of the Institute of Formation of the
In 1980, he co-founded with
Haudry practiced a version of modern paganism that put heavy emphasis on ethnicity. He described this paganism: "each [pagan] religion belongs specifically to the corresponding ethnic and linguistic community, which, far from seeking to convert foreigners, jealously guards the benefits of its religion for its members".[11] In 1995, he participated in the founding of the nativist movement Terre et Peuple, along with Pierre Vial and Jean Mabire, and served as its vice president.[12][13]
Soon after Haudry's retirement, the French Ministry of Education appointed a commission to investigate whether Haudry's institute was too closely associated with the far-right. The work of the commission was mooted when Haudry's successor, Jean-Paul Allard, dissolved the institute and reconstituted it as an association free from state supervision.[14]
He was a director of the Association of French Friends of South African Communities.[15]
Haudry died on 23 May 2023, five days before his 89th birthday.[16]
Indo-European studies
Three-sky model
In his most important work on comparative mythology, La Religion cosmique des Indo-Européens (1987; "The Cosmic Religion of Indo-Europeans"), Haudry argued that Proto-Indo-European cosmogony featured three 'skies' (diurnal, nocturnal and liminal) each having its own set of deities and colours (white, red, and dark).[17] The proposition is often mentioned in handbooks,[17][18] although it has been criticized by some scholars as an "overinterpretation" of available data.[19][20]
Realm | Theme | Deities | Colour |
---|---|---|---|
Day | Celestial | "Daylight-sky god" ( *Dyēus )
|
white |
Dawn/twilight | Bridging | "Binder-god" (Kronos, Savitṛ, Saturnus) | red |
Night | Night Spirits | "Night-sky god" (Ouranos) | dark |
Thought, word, action
In Haudry's 2009 essay entitled The Triad: thought, word, action, in the Indo-European tradition, he stated that the formula "thought, word, action" had a wide distribution in all of the ancient literatures of Indo-European languages in antiquity.[21][22]
According to Haudry, there is a connection between the triad of "thought, word, action" and fire or light. He said that the presence of "divine fires" is in several
For Alberto De Antoni, this study, which is "very scholarly and elaborate from a linguistic point of view, with an extensive bibliography and a critical apparatus", allows Haudry, thanks to the multiplicity of sources within the Indo-European world and due to Haudry's "excellent linguistic expertise" to reconstitute the verbs and nouns of the triadic formula.[24]
