Arnold Kurr Van Gennep (23 April 1873 – 7 May 1957) was a noted French ethnographer and folklorist. His best known work is Les rites de passage [The Rites of Passage] (1909) in which he divides rites of passage rituals into three phases: preliminal, liminal, and postliminal. The liminal stage was further studied by anthropologist Victor Turner.
