This comparative investigation is focused on the comparison of contents, themes, topics, motives, but also symbolism, stereotype situations, patterns of behavior etc. of sung and narrated oral text in South-east Europe. Great importance was given to bibliography, usually difficult to compile in a time-consuming process; a separate part at the end of the volume is dedicated to a bibliographie résonée, arranged according to countries and genres; this will facilitate further and more specific research in special fields of interest. This book offers for the first time a comparative survey of nearly all genres of the traditional oral folklore of Southeast Europe, independent from language, ethnic grouping, national boarders, religion and confessions; in this way the high degree of homogenity of the highly developed traditional oral culture in the historical Balkans is documented as well as the high numbers of variants and versions and the superb literary quality of these orally transmitted lingual manifestations, in some cases equal to the written literature of the region.
Die komparative Untersuchung beschäftigt sich mit dem Vergleich von Inhalten, Thematiken und Motiven, von gesungenen und gesprochenen Oraltexten in Südosteuropa, aber auch symbolischen Konstellationen, stereotype Situationen, Verhaltensweisen, die alle zusammen charakteristische Teile der traditionellen Kulturtopologie des Balkanraums bilden. Besondere Sorgfalt wird auf die schwierig und zeitraubend zu erfassenden Bibliographie gelegt; ein eigener Abschnitt am Bandende bringt eine ausführlich kommentierte kritische Bibliographie, nach Ländern und Gattungen geordnet, die weiterführende spezifischere Forschungsvorhaben erleichtern soll. Mit dieser Monographie wird erstmals eine vergleichende Gesamtübersicht über die südosteuropäische Folklore geboten, unabhängig von Sprachzugehörigkeiten, Ethnien, Staatsgrenzen, Religionen und Glaubensgemeinschaften, und damit der hohe Grad an Homogenität der traditionellen Oralkultur dieses historischen Kommunikationsraums nachgewiesen, ebenso wie die hohe Variantenanzahl und literarische Qualität dieser mündlichen Sprachmanifestationen, die der schriftlichen Literatur durchaus ebenbürtig sind.
