Although it has existed in written form for barely 150 years, the Finnish Kalevala is one of the most widely translated national epics in the world. It has already undergone exhaustive exegesis, and the popular themes used and stylised by its compiler have been sufficiently enumerated and classified. However, the study of the authentic oral traditions that underlie it, many of which are still thriving in those Finnic and Baltic areas so little known to the rest of the Western world, remained a fascinating endeavor. Even more fascinating was to compare these traditions with the other gems of the oral heritage of mankind traditional rites, myths and music, from Occitania, Central Europe, Africa, Asia, Amerindia, Oceania. and, as a final aim, to bring about another audacious comparison, by bridging the gap between the ancient, anonymous oral tradition and the practice of everyday oral communication; between the collective tradition on the one hand, and dialogue-type enunciation on the other. This is the scope of this unique gathering of specialists from all over the world. representing different fields of ethnological studies : ethnolinguistics, ethno-literature, ethnomusicology and folklore.
