These attractive works of folk art (and the religious culture of the Catholic South of Europe as well) are observed from the point of view of their functional aims as testimonies of a miracle that happened in human life. Votive paintings are interesting first of all as visualized stories, therefore it’s worthy of representing the perspective of the comparison between their narrative strategies and the narrative strategy of folklore legends. The author notes that the inclusion of a special inscription in the first person is optional for the picture. Moreover, Italian masters often use only formal inscriptions; they try to translate their customer’s stories into a drawing completely. However, the examination of some examples which show a parallel transmission of the event via words and images demonstrates remarkable differences in narrative strategies. It is significant that the visualization of a miracle as a divine intervention into the circumstances of a person’s life is mostly a result of the traditional iconography scheme followed by the painter; while the words of the person participating in the event are primarily focused on the reality and tiny details of what happened.","PeriodicalId":367091,"journal":{"name":"Folklore: structure, typology, semiotics","volume":"137 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132348201","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Military themes permeate most of the Cossacks historical songs. Along with the direct depiction of military actions and related phenomena and concepts, the songs contain allegorical, metaphorical descriptions of war – stable images associated with armed clashes. The author’s attention is focused on the last, as they show the deep interconnections of war with other basic concepts of the Cossack, and Russian in general, worldview. The representations of war, reflected in the songs, are closely related to the understanding of life and death, one’s own and others’ and the main occupations of the Cossacks. War is described allegorically through images of natural disasters, social relations, and labor activities, and appears as a phenomenon beyond human control, characterized as an alien, otherworldly space, and thereby partially intersects with the people’s understanding of death. Many of the described metaphors (army – cloud; battle – harvest, feast; enemies – guests) were characteristic of all-Russian folk art from the earliest period, which shows the continuity of the Cossack folklore tradition with the Russian one","PeriodicalId":367091,"journal":{"name":"Folklore: structure, typology, semiotics","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127490523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These can be animal-demons that can transform into humans and interact with humans. Unlike other animals, for example, foxes, hedgehogs were not very popular characters. Several stories about them can be found in ‘Taiping guang ji’, ‘Taiping yu lan’ (10th century), as well as in a collection of tales about the weird, “Kui che zhi” (12th century). In most cases, hedgehogs, in the form of elderly people retaining some zoomorphic features, encounter humans in the yard or in the house and do not harm them. Another type of were-hedgehogs are sacred animals, the cult of whom spread during the Qing era and remains popular to this day. Those spirits, having settled in the family, ensure its prosperity and acquire the ability to shapeshift into humans only upon achieving immortality. Stories about various hedgehog spirits are presented in the collection by Li Qingcheng, “Zuicha’s Tales of the Weird” (“Zuicha zhiguai”), published in 1892. Those stories take place in Tianjin, where the cult of the white hedgehog was very popular. In some of those, the character displays features of different types of spirits.","PeriodicalId":367091,"journal":{"name":"Folklore: structure, typology, semiotics","volume":"61 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114058578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The monograph considers the folklore ideas about the gift of storytelling, the stages in the future storyteller formation and training, as well as some modern aspects of the singing the epic tales. The book summarizes previous studies in that area and contains new ethnographic and biographical data. The second study is dedicated to the motifs of dreams and apparitions of characters in the epic of “Manas”, and was written by the folklorist and literary critic Nelya Bekmukhamedova. Based on a fairly representative set of records, the author of the monograph consistently analyses the means of the text expression and the symbolism of the motifs of dreams and apparitions of the epic characters, identifies their plot functions and proposes their classification.","PeriodicalId":367091,"journal":{"name":"Folklore: structure, typology, semiotics","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124356384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a review upon two dictionaries on Slavic folklore studies and ethnolinguistics published in Poland in recent years, which reflect the variety of trends and methodological approaches in contemporary Polish Slavic studies. The first book that is reviewed is Volume V of the “Axiological lexicon of the Slavs and their neighbours”, edited by the well-known Polish ethnolinguist Jerzy Bartmiński. The reviewed volume is dwelling upon the concept of “Honor” (Lublin, 2017; edited by Peter Sotirov and Deyan Aidachich) and is an example of parallel description of Slavic system of values based upon varied comparative data. The second book that is reviewed in this paper is the “Plants in folk beliefs and customs” dictionary (Wroclaw, 2016) by Adam Fischer, one of the most renown Polish ethnographers and folklorists of the first half of the 20 th century. Most of the data for the dictionary had been already collected and processed by Fischer in the 1930s, but the dictionary itself was edited and published by the research group in the University of Wroclaw only two years ago. The dictionary provides information on 250 plant species used in folk culture.","PeriodicalId":367091,"journal":{"name":"Folklore: structure, typology, semiotics","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116923028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
