Arnold van Gennep (23 April 1873 – 7 May 1957) was a noted French ethnographer and folklorist. His most famous work is Les rites de passage [The Rites of Passage] (1909) which includes his vision of rites of passage rituals as being divided into three phases: preliminary, liminaire (liminality) (a stage much studied by anthropologist Victor Turner), and postliminaire (post-liminality).
