Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Folk-Speech of South Cheshire The appearance of a new book dealing with the Cheshire dialect may possibly excite some surprise. To say nothing of the labours of Wilbraham, Leigh, and other writers, it might be thought that the copious work of Mr. Holland, lately published by the English Dialect Society, would leave little of importance to be said on this subject. A few preliminary words, therefore, seem to be necessary in explanation of the motives which have led me to undertake the present work. The nucleus of my Glossary of South Cheshire words was formed nearly ten years ago. Accustomed to hear the dialect of my native county from earliest childhood, I had become quite as familiar with its idioms as with those of literary English. I early became convinced, however, that in order to enter perfectly into the spirit of the dialect it was necessary not only to note the forms of speech used by others, but constantly to use them myself. I accordingly formed the habit of employing the dialect in my daily intercourse with dialect-speakers. This habit I have never relinquished, and it has proved of immense value to me in my work as a word-collector.

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of American Folklore and Folklife Studies by : Simon J. Bronner
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of American Folklore and Folklife Studies written by Simon J. Bronner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 856 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of American Folklore and Folklife Studies surveys the materials, approaches, concepts, and applications of the field to provide a sweeping guide to American folklore and folklife, culture, history, and society. Forty-three comprehensive and diverse chapters delve into significant themes and methods of folklore and folklife study; established expressions and activities; spheres and locations of folkloric action; and shared cultures and common identities. Beyond the longstanding arenas of academic focus developed throughout the 350-year legacy of folklore and folklife study, contributors at the forefront of the field also explore exciting new areas of attention that have emerged in the twenty-first century such as the Internet, bodylore, folklore of organizations and networks, sexual orientation, neurodiverse identities, and disability groups. Encompassing a wide range of cultural traditions in the United States, from bits of slang in private conversations to massive public demonstrations, ancient beliefs to contemporary viral memes, and a simple handshake greeting to group festivals, these chapters consider the meanings in oral, social, and material genres of dance, ritual, drama, play, speech, song, and story while drawing attention to tradition-centered communities such as the Amish and Hasidim, occupational groups and their workaday worlds, and children and other age groups. Weaving together such varied and manifest traditions, this handbook pays significant attention to the cultural diversity and changing national boundaries that have always been distinctive in the American experience, reflecting on the relative youth of the nation; global connections of customs brought by immigrants; mobility of residents and their relation to an indigenous, urbanized, and racialized population; and a varied landscape and settlement pattern. Edited by leading folklore scholar Simon J. Bronner, this handbook celebrates the extraordinary richness of the American social and cultural fabric, offering a valuable resource not only for scholars and students of American studies, but also for the global study of tradition, folk arts, and cultural practice.
