PART 1
1. Summarize takeaways from week 11 and the course as a whole: What is folklore, who are the folk, why study them? How?
McNeill, Lynne (2013). Chapter 1 "What is Folklore?" in Folklore Rules, pages 1-16.
Where does folklore come from? When you read any folklore text, you need to know its recent history.
Lynne McNeill (2013). Chapter 2 "Collecting Folklore" in Folklore Rules, pages 20-29. Henry Glassie (2013). pages 3-10 in All Silver and No Brass University of Illinois Press.
· First, the variants that existed "out there," in traditions before and around the interview ("natural context")
· How does Henry Glassie put the "folk" into his description of "folklore"?
· What do he and I descrbe, to show a reader both the interview context and the natural context?
· What do you, a reader, need to know, to re-experience a tradition that you cannot see and hear?
Today we continue the discussion about collecting folklore. We study folklore’s source, the people we see performing folklore in a broad, current context. How do various folklore traditions intersect? And is folklore possible in cities and a mass mediated world?
We’ll follow one of Henry Glassie’s students, William Wiggins, on his fieldwork expeditions to American cities. Is there a "folk" in the city? Does "folklore" exist in the world of technology and urban civilization? (I'll keep you in suspense! — You need to read this chapter and watch the lecture to learn answers given by our pathfinder, William Wiggins).
William Wiggins (1987). O Freedom: Afro-American Emancipation Celebrations, pages 1-24.
· How does the concept of "variant" support or revise McNeill's ideas about folklore?
· Glassie collected folklore in a remote rural community, and Wiggins did fieldwork in large cities. Do Lynn McNeill's chapters, "What is folklore," and "What do folklorists do?" describe both of these folklorists?
2. Connect Part #1 to the three folklore texts you’ve presented and analyzed in Assignments #1, #2, and #3: an oral poem; a legend; and a folktale.
3. Insert your revised, final versions of Assignments 1-3.
· The final versions replace your earlier drafts. For the final grade, you cannot get a lower score than the sum of your drafts, but you can improve that score to 100%. Remember to include links to your shared media recordings.
