Ah, I see.
Then I had a wrong impression about (and hitherto experience with
other works on) gallica. Sorry.
Best,
Agnes
Dear Agnes (if I may),
Yes, several people have contacted me to say the same. Perhaps it is different where you are, but from where I am (in the UK) the gallica site is not in fact entirely open access. Accessibility to the book in question via "browsing" is limited to 32 pages, so that from p. 33 on, if one starts at the beginning, the pages are blank.
Philippe Bornet very kindly sent me pdfs, downloaded from another site (cairn.info).
Many thanks to all,
Robert

Dear all,
I don't quite understand the problem -- the gallica site is entirely open access.
Why is it necessary to download a file? The entire text is there for browsing.
Best,
Agnes

Dear Philippe,
Again, thank you! I'm very grateful for your help, and reluctant to keep pestering you... Unfortunately, however, for me at least, the same applies on the cairn.info website - I can only download chapters for a fee, even when I log into my University of Zurich account to make the attempt.
Not to worry, I can survive without it!
Many thanks and best wishes,Robert

My bad, you are right! It is actually available in its entirety on this other repository (both in html + pdf / it can be downloaded, but chapter by chapter): https://www.cairn.info/le-probleme-des-centaures--9782402522281.htm . Hopefully it works this time.
All the best,
Philippe

Dear Philippe (if I may),
Thank you very much indeed for this pointer, but I was rather hoping not to have to pay as I don't want to read the whole book, merely to check something, and I don't see a way of accessing this pdf here (for example, through my library) other than by paying. But perhaps I am missing something?
My best wishes,
Robert

Hi there,
The text is available here, on a great French repository of digital works:https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k3340292b.texteImage
With kind regards,

Dear colleagues,
I don't suppose anyone has a pdf of G. Dumézil's 1929 book
Le Problème des Centaures. Étude de mythologie comparée Indo-Européene
that they're willing to share?
Many of his books are available on archive.org, but not this one it seems. I'd be very grateful if anyone can help.
Many thanks!
Robert
