Abstract

Focusing on the figure of the storyteller, this study breaks new ground in the approach to reading contemporary literature by identifying a growing interest in storytelling. ... (It) closely examines this preoccupation with story and storytelling through a close reading of sixteen contemporary international novels written in English which are about actual 'storytellers', revealing how death of the author has given birth to the storyteller.

Abstract

"What distinguishes folklorists from representatives of related disciplines who do similar things - go to the field, collect intentional data and subject them to rigorous analysis and interpretation - for diverse disciplinary purposes? Folklorists are unique in their study of folklore for its own sake, as the folk creates, adapts, recreates stories, songs, dances and proverbs. The folklorist observes personal creativity as individuals shape traditional materials, assisted by a critical audience and sanctioned by a tradition-minded community." "The twenty essays in this book, divided into four sections, represent the author's ideas, theories and methodological approaches to folk narrative. The first makes the case for narrator-orientation as a field-ethnography-based humanistic approach; the second introduces the narrator's personality and Weltanschauung as key to his/her motivation and art; the third discusses the intricacies and dynamics of story-transmission and dissemination; and the fourth presents case studies that illustrate Linda Degh's method of analysis of narrative performance. She focuses on individual creators of variants that link up in processes of narrative development leading to dissemination, and the formation of types and subtypes. She shows how much more this method can reveal of the nature of folklore."--Jacket.

Abstract

Shaw provides both the Gaelic texts and English translations. When possible, he identifies both the original Gaelic storyteller and the local reciters. Reciters in the collection include Joe Neil MacNeil, a major Canadian storyteller, as well as others whose stories have never before been published. The Blue Mountains and Other Gaelic Stories from Cape Breton showcases a unique and neglected storytelling tradition.
