Extractions: [Editor's Note: See also the response by John Marincola As scholars who live among books, we find it difficult to imagine the cultural world and the intellectual activity of people to whom books represented a very small part of their way of knowing the world, and a relatively new way to communicate with others or to preserve one's knowledge. In studying the beginnings of literature in the Greek world, our focus has been on the development of the epic tradition and its fixation in written texts, and more recently on the culture that lies behind the creation and performance of lyric poetry and elegy. The oral pre-history of Greek prose has been relatively neglected, although the work of Aly early in the century and of others like Lang, Murray, Thomas, and Evans on oral tradition and Herodotus in the last decade have indicated more work to be done. However we are still far from placing Herodotus and his work securely in their cultural milieu. It is here where I believe some comparative study of the quite different narrative tradition of the North Carolina mountains can be helpful. Recent work on early Greek oral tradition has been especially influenced by the work of Vansina and Finnegan on African oral traditions.

Extractions: Volume 6 - Number 2 - 2000 KWESI YANKAH PROVERB SPEAKING AS A CREATIVE PROCESS: THE AKAN OF GHANA The subject of proverb creativity is seldom considered by scholars, part of the reason being the presumed absence of creative potential in proverb use. This latter view of the proverb stems from the feature of brevity often associated with the genre, but it is also due to the relative paucity of ethnographies on proverb speaking.* Until recently, scholars showed little interest in situated uses of the proverb. Proverb studies were essentially stylistic, structural, functional, comparative and lexicographic. Such decontextualized studies, by their very nature, do not portray the proverb as a living art form; they depict the proverb as frozen, fixed, and void of dynamics or creativity. Studies of situated uses of the proverb include Herzog and Blooah's study of Jabo proverbs in Liberia, John Messenger's study of proverb use in Anang-Ibibio traditional courts, Arewa and Dundes' ethnography of proverb speaking among the Yoruba, Peter Seitel's analysis of Haya proverb use

TEACHING FOLK DANCE: PURPOSES INFORMING METHOD This approach to promoting and preserving culture has had and dance of a region ofGreece in the an integrated presentation of a people's tradition and folklore http://www.filetron.com/grkmanual/iofa93.html
Extractions: Return to Home Page The following paper was first published in I didaskalia tou horou (Teaching Dance), Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Dance Research, Portaria, 7-11 July, 1993 , International Organization of Folk Arts, Athens, 1993 Charles Kyriacou Member, Board of Trustees Greek Orthodox Youth Folk Dance Festival(FDF) Diocese of San Francisco(USA) ABSTRACT: Let us first admit from the start that many people do not consider "folk dance" as a serious or even worthwhile endeavor. There are elements in modern society that consider folk dance "primitive" having been created by and for the "peasants" and not worthy of the allocation of scarce resources. Some of the reasons are that folk dance did not originate in the theatre and its purpose was not to entertain an audience but rather to serve a set of functions within a rural society of the past. Many modern urbanites seem to believe that the fact it served a rural society exempts folk dances from being able to serve them in any meaningful manner. In addition, and this is something folk dance teachers have some control over, the quality of a majority of folk dance performances compared to other theatrical dance presentations is considered by many today as substandard. In her article, "The Practice of and the Responsibility for Retention of Culture," Dr. Mary Coros observes:
What Is A Fable? may be absorbed into a culture and exchanged reading Aesop the Fabulist Aesop (greece,6th century Fable Definitions and examples of common forms of folklore. http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/faq/blfaq-fable.htm
Extractions: A fable is a short, pithy animal tale, most often told or written with a moral tagged on in the form of a proverb. Thus to convey a moral is the aim of most fables, and the tale is the vehicle by which this is done, providing both an illustration of and compelling argument for the moral. As a specific development in form and content of the animal tale, the fable is comparatively sophisticated and does not originate as a folktale, though it may make use of folk material, and once composed may be absorbed into a culture and exchanged as traditional oral folklore. A fable by Aesop A Hare one day ridiculed the short feet and slow pace of the Tortoise, who replied, laughing: "Though you be swift as the wind, I will beat you in a race." The Hare, believing her assertion to be simply impossible, assented to the proposal; and they agreed that the Fox should choose the course and fix the goal. On the day appointed for the race the two started together. The Tortoise never for a moment stopped, but went on with a slow but steady pace straight to the end of the course. The Hare, lying down by the wayside, fell fast asleep. At last waking up, and moving as fast as he could, he saw the Tortoise had reached the goal, and was comfortably dozing after her fatigue.

Extractions: Boston, MA 02215 Claudio Véliz, BSc, PhD, Director The teaching program of The University Professors has been designed to respond to the necessity for rigorous and well-founded cross-disciplinary studies apparent in our cultural tradition and reflected tellingly in the work of our major academic centers. This elusive but principal objective is achieved partly by emphasizing the fundamental humanistic values inherent in all academic inquiries. The blurring of the deceptively distinct boundaries between the conventional disciplines has not passed unnoticed by many stu-dents, who have shown an interest in courses that integrate several disciplines around a central theme, frequently with challenging and illuminating results. Courses taught by The University Professors can be taken by students from any department or School of Boston University either as electives or to meet degree requirements, always with the approval of the student's advisor. The responsibility of teaching in The University Professors is precisely associated with the mastery of several disciplines. Each member of the faculty is conversant with a number of disciplines normally linked by current research commitments, the better to serve students who are themselves interested in extending, modifying, or integrating established fields of study around a flexible academic program.
