English summary: Several Iranian studies took place alongside the proceedings of a symposium (Liege, April 2010), with which the University of Liege had just celebrated the centenary of Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin. The great Iranologist had just made one last statement, dying at the age of 102. The title of the conference, Le sort des Gathas, echoed the translation of Gathas that Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin had produced in his Zoroastre (1948), an important work in the studies of ancient Iran. The guiding principles of the meeting were to address a most precise and still-debated issue, (to which technical philological studies can provide a positive solution), and to do it with a limited number of participants (selected on the basis of their recent contributions on topic): the result of this initiative was a suitable tribute to one of the greatest figures of Iranology. The theme of the conference (the reusing and the role of Old-Avestan passages in recent Avestan, later Mazdean and Middle Iranian literature) was addressed in several ways. French description: Les circonstances ont dicte la matiere de cet hommage: quelques etudes iraniennes diverses ont pris place ... cote des actes d'un colloque (Liege, avril 2010) avec lequel l'Universite de Liege venait de celebrer le centenaire de Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin. Le grand iranologue venait meme d'y faire une derniere communication, mais allait nous quitter ... pres de 102 ans. L'intitule du colloque, Le sort des Gythys, faisait echo ... la traduction que Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin avait donnee des Gythys dans son Zoroastre (1948), important jalon des etudes de l'Iran ancien. Les principes directeurs de la rencontre etaient de traiter une question la plus precise possible et encore debattue, pour laquelle des etudes philologiques techniques puissent apporter une solution positive et de le faire avec un nombre restreint de participants choisis sur la seule base de leurs apports recents sur le sujet: le resultat de l'entreprise fut ... la hauteur de l'hommage qu'il convenait de rendre ... l'une des plus grandes figures de l'iranologie. Le theme du colloque, la reutilisation et le role des passages vieil-avestiques dans la litterature mazdeenne ulterieure, avestique recente, mais aussi moyen-iranienne, a ete aborde de plusieurs facons: Philippe Swennen (Liege), ... titre preambule, s'est penche sur les emplois vediques du mot gatha-; ensuite, Antonio Panaino (Ravenne) a examine la portee du compose asrauuaiiat.gatha- qui ne recite pas les Gythys; Helmut Humbach (Mayence) a recherche des traces dialectales vieil-avestiques subsistant dans l'Avesta recent; avec la collaboration de Klaus Faiss, Helmut Humbach examine aussi l'histoire de la comprehension d'une strophe gythique; Almut Hintze (Londres), Prods Oktor Skjaervo (Cambridge, MA) et Elizabeth Tucker (Oxford) ont examine les raisons des citations que l'Avesta recent faisait des textes vieil-avestiques; Jean Kellens (Paris) et Eric Pirart (Liege) ont montre comment les auteurs de l'Avesta recent avaient fabrique certains noms propres nouveaux ... partir du texte des Gythys; Alberto Cantera (Salamanque) et, dans une communication ulterieure, Eric Pirart ont traite de la diascevase des textes vieil-avestiques ou de la place que ceux-ci tenaient dans la liturgie longue. Les quelques autres etudes qui, reprises dans ce volume, ne concernent pas les textes vieil-avestiques sont au nombre de quatre: Miguel Angel Andres Toledo (Salamanque) s'interesse aux chiens de l'au-del... zoroastrien; Michiel de Vaan (Leyde), ... un fait de phonetique avestique; Norbert Oettinger (Ulm), ... l'emploi que l'Avesta recent fait de l'indicatif imparfait; Pierre Lecoq (Paris), ... la place du kurde parmi les dialectes iraniens. Le volume contient aussi la liste que Philippe Swennen dresse des dernieres publications de Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin ainsi que l'evocation que Jean Loicq offre de la personne du grand iranologue.
