Abstract
When living statues give death: voices, movements, protests The myths of living statues are numerous, and studies devoted to them are frequent. The aspect that interests us most is nuisance or revenge, statues that cause death are indeed far from rare. All of this takes place in a fairly broad context and we have decided here to focus on the events of 2020, the year which saw a movement of demands for the removing of many statues around the world. But beyond the theme of the killing by a statue, we rather wanted to open up perspectives on the debates which go back and forth between myths, news, and questions about direct democracy. In this first part (this article is in two parts), we look more particularly at the statue of the Commander in Don Juan, Athena, Pandora, statues related to Bolshevism, and their avatar, the robot.
