Abstract
The distinction in the study of provers between sources (compilations of proverbs in anthologies, journals, dictionaries, archives, etc.) and studies does not fully correspond to the distinction between documents and scholars. Scholars often double as documenters, especially those who take a contextual approach and study the proverbs' contexts of use; their studies then double as sources. The distinction between the two categories is thus purely conceptual and methodological.
