Specifications
What separates - and what unites - today's Folklore from Anthropology and Ethnology? What role does the personal perspective, psyche, emotion, and experience play in exploring and interpreting older, now historical, forms of life and social organization?
The distinguished university professor Walter Puchner analyzes and systematizes the most recent scientific data regarding the tools for studying popular culture, while critically addressing the colonial Western approaches and the Eurocentric biases of researchers.
The author focuses behind the facade and staging of folk tradition, seeking the social construction of reality and authenticity, and wonders where the true homeland lies.
