Book Synopsis The Paradox of Authenticity by : Joseph Grim Feinberg
Download or read book The Paradox of Authenticity written by Joseph Grim Feinberg and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Communist reign in Slovakia the state government staged a public performance of stage folklore that was both simplistic and artificial. Recently, as part of a larger movement to retrieve their culture, young Slovakian folklore enthusiasts have attempted to recover an authentic form of rural dance and music, and return their folklore traditions to the Slovakian public by researching, learning, and presenting original, authentic folklore performances. Joseph Feinberg sets out to analyze this contemporary movement with a special focus on its ideology, practices, and performances. But he also tackles a much larger issue. Interpreting the Slovakian movement against a wider background of post-Communist contemporary Central and Eastern Europe, he investigates the issue of authenticity itself, and how a self-identified form of authentic folklore is reconstructed and reenacted.
Book Synopsis Where There are No Spectators: Loving Authentic Folklore in Post-folkloric Slovakia by :
Download or read book Where There are No Spectators: Loving Authentic Folklore in Post-folkloric Slovakia written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dissertation's chapters follow a series of challenges that the authentic folklore movement has faced in its work of reformulating folklore. In the process, I outline and analyze the elaborate procedures that the movement has developed in order to address these challenges. I argue that these specific challenges derive from tensions inherent in the movement's notion of authentic folklore (and to a certain extent inherent in the notion of authentic folklore in general). Of chief importance is the idea that authentic folklore is engaged in "for one's own pleasure" rather than for the sake of an audience or a public; yet at the same time authentic folklore advocates believe that folklore should be made accessible to a "broad public" that is not able to engage in folklore "for its own pleasure" because it has lost contact with authentic folk traditions. Ideally, in authentic folklore "there are no performers or spectators," yet the authentic folklore movement must perform folklore to spectators in order to teach them about this ideal. My dissertation traces the movement's attempts to create--however tentatively--a public that ceases to be an audience, becoming an active participant in the enactment of folklore, yet never fully merging with the "folk." The public is encouraged to identify with the folk as a grounding figure of public identity, without becoming the folk and without "politicizing"--mobilizing or transforming--the meaning of the folk's shared cultural expression. The dissertation is accompanied by one supplementary recording of a performance by Folklore Ensemble Hornad, with whom the author spent most of his time during fieldwork.
