Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Folk Poesy, Vol. 2: Annotated Translations, From the Whole Cycle of Romaic Folk-Verse and Folk-Prose; Edited With Essays on the Science of Folklore, Greek Folkspeech, and the Survival of Paganism; Folk-Prose Said the eldest, 'I want you to bring me a pair of diamond earrings.' Said the next, 'I want you to bring me a diamond necklace for my neck.' Said he to the youngest daughter, 'And thou, what dost thou wish me to bring thee?' 'Let me think, papatsi, and I will tell you later.' She goes to her chamber, and says to her grandmother, 'Lalá mine, my father is going away; what shall I charge him to bring me?' 'Tell him, my child, to bring you the Melodious Napkin, and say that, if he forgets it, may his ship move neither backwards nor forwards.' The Princess went to her father and said to him, 'Papa! bring me the Melodious Napkin - if you don't bring it, may your ship move neither backwards nor forwards!' The father arose, embraced them, and kissed them, and went away. He came to the place, and fought and conquered. He bought the earrings for the eldest, the necklace for the second, and for the youngest a spray to wear in her hair. He went on board the ship to return to his kingdom, but neither forward, nor backward, would it move. 'Bre aman!' They cast off, and set the sails, but the ship remained in the same spot. There was a merchant on board, and he said to the King, 'My longlived King, perhaps someone has given you a commission, and you have forgotten it.' 'I don't remember, how do I know? I don't remember being told anything.' Said he, 'But try and recollect, my King, if someone in your house did not happen to give you a charge, and you have not fulfilled it?'

Book The Folktale

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stith Thompson
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 1977
  • ISBN : 9780520033597
  • Pages : 524 pages

Download or read book The Folktale written by Stith Thompson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1977 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As interest in folklore increases, the folktale acquires greater significance for students and teachers of literature. The material is massive and scattered; thus, few students or teachers have accessibility to other than small segments or singular tales or material they find buried in archives. Stith Thompson has divided his book into four sections which permit both the novice and the teacher to examine oral tradition and its manifestation in folklore. The introductory section discusses the nature and forms of the folktale. A comprehensive second part traces the folktale geographically from Ireland to India, giving culturally diverse examples of the forms presented in the first part. The examples are followed by the analysis of several themes in such tales from North American Indian cultures. The concluding section treats theories of the folktale, the collection and classification of folk narrative, and then analyzes the living folklore process. This work will appeal to students of the sociology of literature, professors of comparative literature, and general readers interested in folklore.

Book Ours Once More

  • Release : 2020
  • ISBN : 1789207223
  • Pages : 220 pages

Download or read book Ours Once More written by Michael Herzfeld and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2020 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When this work - one that contributes to both the history and anthropology fields - first appeared in 1982, it was hailed as a landmark study of the role of folklore in nation-building. It has since been highly influential in reshaping the analysis of Greek and European cultural dynamics. In this expanded edition, a new introduction by the author and an epilogue by Sharon Macdonald document its importance for the emergence of serious anthropological interest in European culture and society and for current debates about Greece's often contested place in the complex politics of the European Union.

Book Forgotten Founders and Other Neglected Social Theorists

Download or read book Forgotten Founders and Other Neglected Social Theorists written by Christopher T. Conner and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume highlights the work of ten forgotten and neglected social theorists in the hope of reinvigorating interest in their work and their potential contributions to the analysis of contemporary social issues. Each chapter includes a brief biographical sketch, an overview of the selected theorist’s work and significance, and the relevance of their work to one or more contemporary social issues. While other similar texts tend to focus primarily on intellectual biography, our emphasis here is on the scholar’s theories and their application to contemporary social issues. We provide a contextualization of each scholar’s work, using present-day social issues or problems. Many of these individuals played a significant role in the development of sociology. Our hope is to provide a resource that will help re-integrate these marginalized social theorists, rescuing them from obscurity and elevating their status.

Book Reading the Vampire

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ken Gelder
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2002-08-27
  • ISBN : 1134895348
  • Pages : 174 pages

Download or read book Reading the Vampire written by Ken Gelder and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-08-27 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insatiable bloodlust, dangerous sexualities, the horror of the undead, uncharted Trannsylvanian wildernesses, and a morbid fascination with the `other': the legend of the vampire continues to haunt popular imagination. Reading the Vampire examines the vampire in all its various manifestations and cultural meanings. Ken Gelder investigates vampire narratives in literature and in film, from early vampire stories like Sheridan Le Fanu's `lesbian vampire' tale Carmilla and Bram Stoker's Dracula, the most famous vampire narrative of all, to contemporary American vampire blockbusters by Stephen King and others, the vampire chronicles of Anne Rice, `post-Ceausescu' vampire narratives, and films such as FW Murnau's Nosferatu and Bram Stoker's Dracula. Reading the Vampire embeds vampires in their cultural contexts, showing vampire narratives feeding off the anxieties and fascinations of their times: from the nineteenth century perils of tourism, issues of colonialism and national identity, and obsessions with sex and death, to the `queer' identity of the vampire or current vampiric metaphors for dangerous exchanges of bodily fluids and AIDS.
