Soft Cover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. 1st Edition. For centuries, the eastern shores of the Baltic Sea have nourished poetic cultures developing oral epic traditions that mostly survived in lays of a few hundred lines but that eventually gave rise to much longer traditional epics. The Maiden's Death Song & The Great Wedding is a manifestation of a long epic format rare in Baltic-Finnish folk poetry and of two alternative storylines. It is also a masterpiece that serves as a reminder of the poetry of a gifted minority culture that tends to be forgotten. Composed by Seto/Setu singer and "song mother" Anne Vabarna (1877 -1964). 529 pp. In English. Small wear to the dust jacket.

Zustand: new. Pages: 487 Language: English. On the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the Kalevala thirty experts on comparative epic research from 12 countries met in Turku in August 1999 to debate the role of the Finnish national epic and its scientific significance. The classic bone of contention Is the Kalevala an oral or a literary epic? received the surprising answer, It is neither! The Kalevala belongs among the tradition-oriented epics, along with Homer, Beowulf, the Nibelungenlied and the Eddas. The collator-composers of these traditional epics remained faithful to tradition and faded into the background. 9789517464222.

Soft Cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. A near fine copy with minor whitening along the edges and no markings. "Thick corpus", "organic variation" and "textuality" are new keywords in folklore theory. They signal a shift of paradigm between the intercultural and intracultural study of variation. The message is that only the latter is capable of disclosing the real variation of folklore in a living culture and of penetrating the processing of meaning in performance. Where the earlier comparative method worked with a bird's eye view on the "variation" of individual folktales, ballads, proverbs, etc. trying to design the history of the origin and dissemination of an oral product, the modern scholar focuses on intensive fieldwork on living systems of tradition, trying to create thick corpora of material reflecting the organic variation of folklore in context.

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: New. 695 pages, map ; 24 cm. "How does an illiterate singer produce a long oral epic? What is the origin of his "text", available only for a fleeting moment at its performance? How can a multifaceted oral performance be transformed into a book? The primary oral textualisation and the secondary written codification of the Siri epic, 15,683 lines, are described in detail in the present volume on the basis of recent fieldwork among the speakers of Tulu, a Dravidian language, in southern Karnataka, India. The "oral author", Mr Gopala Naika, is one of the many talented singers of oral epics in Tulunaadu and a possession priest in rituals which use oral epics as their mythical charter and a source of mental therapy.".
