Folklorists, students of comparative literature, and anthropologists can all find something of interest in these essays." -American Anthropologist "Superbly edited, impeccably researched, and discriminatingly tied together as a coherent gathering of insight, the volume is a welcome addition to a significant field of study that is only now beginning to appreciate the finer achievements of the South Pacific's unique contribution." -Rongorongo Studies " . . . the defining collection on contemporary verbal arts in Oceania. . . . of real value to scholars concerned with the relationships between verbal art, social change, gender, power, [and] social organization." -Don Brenneis ". . . it will be welcome to historians of the South Pacific and useful to others grappling with problems of oral tradition." -Journal of Interdisciplinary History "The volume abundantly illustrates the continuing vitality of oral traditions in the South Pacific, as well as the continuing wealth these traditions provide for researchers." -Pacific Affairs

内容説明

"...the defining collection on contemporary verbal arts in Oceania...of real value to scholars concerned with the relationships between verbal art, social change, gender, power, and social organization." - Don Brenneis. This volume demonstrates that oral media and native cultural forms are still vital throughout the South Pacific. Contributors from anthropology, ethnomusicology, folklore, literature, and history raise issues in comparative scholarship on oral tradition: what "tradition" means, extra-textual elements, and the relation between composition and performance. The contributors are Achsah Carrier, James Carrier, Christian Clerk, Stephen Feld, Ruth Finnegan, Raymond Firth, Judith Huntsman, Marivee McMath, Margaret Orbell, Teaea Parima, Wendy Pond, Allan Thomas, Ineleo Tuia, and John D. Waiko.
