Soft Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: 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.

Hardcover. Condition: New. 338 pages ; 24 cm. Lauri Honko (1932-2002) developed in particular theories and concepts relating to folk belief, genre and epic. The present collection represents a selection of Honko's key articles. They relate to Honko's own research, to the debates and discussions he took part in. Honko's writings…combine a typically strong empiricism with clear theoretical thought. His own theoretical framework was above all one of functionalism, within which he united other currents within folkloristics, such as 'composition in performance', 'ecology of tradition' and 'textualisation'. He was occupied by the question of how the individual performer used folklore, be he a teller of proverbs or jokes, a singer of oral poetry or a producer of written epic. Contents: Five decades of theoretical contributions / Pekka Hakamies and Anneli Honko ; translated by Clive Tolley -- The folklore process -- Folkloristic theories of genre -- Folkloristic studies on meaning : an introduction -- Empty texts, full meanings : on transformal meaning in folklore -- Memorates and the study of folk beliefs -- Methods in folk-narrative research : their status and future -- Four forms of adaptation of tradition -- Thick corpus and organic variation : an introduction -- The Kalevala as performance -- Comparing traditional epics in the eastern Baltic Sea region -- A comparative approach to the Finno-Ugric folk poetries : three alternative dispositions -- Vertical heritage in horizontal adaptation : presentations of oral poetry and belief systems among the Finno-Ugrians -- The Ingrian lamenter as psychopomp -- Studies on tradition and cultural identity : an introduction -- Traditions in the construction of cultural identity.

Soft cover. Condition: New. P. 492-893. : ill. ; 24 cm. Mr Gopala Naika is one of the many talented singers of oral epics in Tulunaadu, the land of Tulu speakers in southern Karnataka, India. The Finnish-Indian team, Prof. Lauri Honko and Ms Anneli Honko, M.A., from the University of Turku and Prof. Viveka Rai and Dr Chinnappa G…owda from the University of Mangalore, documented his 15,683-line performance of the Siri epic on audio and video tape in December 1990. Only five lines shorter than the Iliad, this purely oral epic, published in Tulu and English, constitutes a point of comparison for researchers interested in the making of oral epics. At the same time it is a tribute to the rich oral poetry in Tulu, a Dravidian language, and the vigorous epic traditions still to be found in many parts of India.In the brief introduction the vicissitudes of the Oral Epics Project, supported by the Academy of Finland and the Alfred Kordelin Foundation, Helsinki, are outlined. The cultural background, fieldwork on oral composition and textual problems encountered in the transcription and translation of the Siri epic and the nature of "oral text" in general are brought into focus.The primary oral textualisation and the secondary written codification of the epic are described in detail in a separate introductory volume (FFC 264), which expands to account for the complex religious and profane contexts of epic performances in Tulunaadu. Eleven earlier cases of textualisation, from Lönnrot and Radloff to Johnson and Smith, are reassessed from the methodological point of view. Several core problems of tradition research are discussed, and new concepts, such as "mental text" and "multiform", are introduced for the analysis of oral composition. Folkloristics, comparative religion, ethnopoetics and comparative research on epics are pooled in this piece of "textual ethnography".
