"À travers un libre jeu de l'imagination créatrice, la pensée et la parole s'associent synergiquement et délibérément en vue de la matérialisation de l'univers, de la nature humaine et de la quiddité même. La singularisation de cet acte tient de la détermination de l'homme à vouloir s'approprier et se représenter son univers à travers la parole, laquelle devient affermie et puissante. Au même titre que l'écrit, la parole se consolide, transmigre et s'incruste dans l'imaginaire pour asseoir le sceptre de l'oralité. De toute évidence, l'oralité n'a été mise à l'épreuve qu'avec l'avènement de l'écrit. Souvent arbitraire, la confrontation entre les deux a redynamisé l'intérêt pour l'essence de l'expression humaine. L'oralité est devenue un sillon transversal aux portées significatives et dont l'étendue est illimitée."--Page 4 of cover.

Sfakians on the island of Crete are known for their distinctive dress and appearance, fierce ruggedness, and devotion to traditional ways. Konstantinos Kalantzis explores how Sfakians live with the burdens and pleasures of maintaining these expectations of exoticism for themselves, for their fellow Greeks, and for tourists. Sfakian performance of masculine tradition has become even more meaningful for Greeks looking to reimagine their nation's global standing in the wake of stringent financial regulation, and for non-Greek tourists yearning for rootedness and escape from the post-industrial north. Through fine-grained ethnography that pays special attention to photography, Tradition in the Frame explores the ambivalence of a society expected to conform to outsiders' perception of the traditional even as it strives to enact its own vision of tradition. From the bodily reenactment of historical photographs to the unpredictable, emotionally-charged uses of postcards and commercial labels, the book unpacks the question of power and asymmetry but also uncovers other political possibilities that are nested in visual culture and experiences of tradition and the past. Kalantzis explores the crossroads of cultural performance and social imagination where the frame is both empowerment and subjection.

The aim of this book is to explore the characteristics of the medieval dragon and discuss the sometimes differing views found in the relevant medieval text types. Based on an intimate knowledge of the primary texts, the study presents new interpretations of well-known literary works, and also takes into consideration paintings and other depictions of these beasts. Dragons were designed not only to frighten but also to fire the imagination, and provide a suitably huge and evil creature for the hero to overcome - yet there is far more to them than reptilian adversaries. This book introduces the medieval dragon via brief, accurate and clear chapters on its natural history, religion, literature and folklore, and concludes with how the dragon - from Beowulf to Tolkien, Disney and Potter - is constantly revived.

"Paysages et utopies explore dans une approche pluridisciplinaire, les relations entre la conception des paysages et l'imaginaire social, l'utopie, dans différentes aires civilisationnelles et à différentes époques, des mondes anciens de la Mésopotamie archaïque aux univers imaginés de la Science-fiction. En effet, le paysage, cette portion d'espace "que l'oeil humain peut percevoir", est directement appréhendé par le prisme de constructions culturelles. Le paysage reflète une certaine conception de la nature voire du monde à différentes époques, et qu'il soit dit "naturel" ou anthropisé, les hommes y projettent une part de leur imaginaire et de leurs aspirations sociétales. Les différentes sources, iconographiques, littéraires, scientifiques, géographiques, etc., proposent ainsi à travers l'histoire du paysage, une conception du monde, voire de l'univers tout entier où les hommes imaginent trois types d'espaces utopiques, ceux dépassant leurs moyens sensoriels, le cosmos et les paysages dit "célestes"; les lieux paradisiaques et rêvés associés à un idéal perdu et à retrouver dans un monde à venir; ceux enfin, qui construits par l'homme, reflètent cet idéal primordial spiritualisé ou parfois, un idéal sociétal guidé par une idéologie sous-jacente. Enfin, en conclusion, on évoquera les paysages apocalyptiques ou de fin des temps. Le paysage est donc le cadre indispensable de l'utopie comme l'utopie s'inscrit dans des paysages choisis pour leur pouvoir évocateur où l'homme se plaît à inscrire son passé, son présent et son devenir."--Page 4 of cover.

The Oxford Handbook of American Folklore and Folklife Studies surveys the materials, approaches, concepts, and applications of the field to provide a sweeping guide to American folklore and folklife, culture, history, and society. Forty-three comprehensive and diverse chapters delve into significant themes and methods of folklore and folklife study; established expressions and activities; spheres and locations of folkloric action; and shared cultures and common identities. Beyond the longstanding arenas of academic focus developed throughout the 350-year legacy of folklore and folklife study, contributors at the forefront of the field also explore exciting new areas of attention that have emerged in the twenty-first century such as the Internet, bodylore, folklore of organizations and networks, sexual orientation, neurodiverse identities, and disability groups. Encompassing a wide range of cultural traditions in the United States, from bits of slang in private conversations to massive public demonstrations, ancient beliefs to contemporary viral memes, and a simple handshake greeting to group festivals, these chapters consider the meanings in oral, social, and material genres of dance, ritual, drama, play, speech, song, and story while drawing attention to tradition-centered communities such as the Amish and Hasidim, occupational groups and their workaday worlds, and children and other age groups. Weaving together such varied and manifest traditions, this handbook pays significant attention to the cultural diversity and changing national boundaries that have always been distinctive in the American experience, reflecting on the relative youth of the nation; global connections of customs brought by immigrants; mobility of residents and their relation to an indigenous, urbanized, and racialized population; and a varied landscape and settlement pattern. Edited by leading folklore scholar Simon J. Bronner, this handbook celebrates the extraordinary richness of the American social and cultural fabric, offering a valuable resource not only for scholars and students of American studies, but also for the global study of tradition, folk arts, and cultural practice.

A lively, stimulating and engaging retelling of purakau - Maori myths - by contemporary Maori writers. Ka mua, ka muri . . .

This ethnography explores the Ngoma healing tradition as practised in eastern Mpumalanga, South Africa. `Bungoma' is an active philosophical system and healing practice consisting of multiple strands that is basedon the notion that humans are intrinsically exposed to each other; while this is the cause of illness, it is also the condition for the possibility of healing. This healing seeks to protect the `exposed being' from harm through augmenting the self. Unlike Western medicine, it does not seek to cure physical ailments but aims to prevent suffering by allowing patients to transform their personal narratives of self. Like Western medicine, it is empirical and is presented as `local knowledge' that amounts to a practical anthropology of human conflict and the environment. The book examines this anthropology through political, economic, interpretive and environmental lenses and seeks to bring its therapeutic applications into relation with global academic anthropology.

This collection of articles provides rich and diverse insights into the historical dynamics of folkloristic thought with its shifting geographies, shared spaces, centres and borderlands. By focusing on intellectual collaboration and sharing, the volume also reveals the limitations, barriers and boundaries inherent in scholarship and scholarly communities. Folklore scholars from Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden, and the USA reflect upon a range of related questions, including: To what extent and in what sense can folklore studies be regarded as a shared field of knowledge? Which lines of authority have held it together and what forces have led to segmentation? How have the hierarchies of intellectual centres and peripheries shifted over time? Do national or regional styles of scholarly practice exist in folkloristics? The contributors here pay attention to individual personalities, the politics and economics of scholarship, and forms of communication as meaningful contexts for discussing the dynamics of folklore theory and methods.
