Theoretical Framework on Regional Folkloric Research.

      Аннотация: Oral tradition is the literature of the people and with the increasing concern on national identity, it is now considerably associated with the consciousness of its collective creator. This book proposes a paradigm in collecting regional oral tradition. The collection, documentation, authentication, translation and analysis used the suggested holistic approach. In this book, the methods and approaches were discussed, the steps were outlined and the scholarly implications were identified. The main research question is a descriptive-analytic documentation of the tradition. The text’s provenance, singer, context of singing, audience reaction, historical, cultural, and geographical relevance – the "metadata" and field notes – were likewise recorded with the researcher interpreting data from the informants’ perspectives. The focus of investigation is proper documentation that ensures authenticity of materials that could then be subjected to translation, and literary analysis.
