The editor and the publisher assume no responsibility for statements of fact or opinion by the authors. Oral Tradition seeks to provide a comparative and interdisciplinary focus for studies in oral literature and related fields by publishing research and scholarship on the creation, transmission, and interpretation of all forms of oral traditional expression. As well as essays treating certifiably oral traditions, OT presents investigations of the relationships between oral and written traditions, as well as brief accounts of important fieldwork, a Symposium section (in which scholars may reply at some length to prior essays), review articles, occasional transcriptions and translations of oral texts, a digest of work in progress, and a regular column for notices of conferences and other matters of interest. In addition, occasional issues will include an ongoing annotated bibliography of relevant research and the annual Albert Lord and Milman Parry Lectures on Oral Tradition. OT welcomes contributions on all oral literatures, on all literatures directly influenced by oral traditions, and on non-literary oral traditions. Submissions must follow the list-of reference format (style sheet available on request) and must be accompanied by a stamped, self-addressed envelope for return or for mailing of proofs; all quotations of primary materials must be made in the original language(s) with following English translations.

The first three essays exemplify OT’s commitment to diversity in the field, with Betsy Bowden’s reading of Chaucer’s Tale of Melibee as a proverb collection, Vladimir Guerrero’s investigation of medieval Spanish oral-derived works as what he calls “auralture,” and Margaret Beissinger’s comparison of Romanian epic and the New Testament in terms of oral storytelling techniques. Then, following on his first group of articles sketching linkages between studies in oral tradition and contemporary criticism in OT 17.1, special editor Mark Amodio presents five quite disparate entries on the same theme. Proverb use and Chaucer is again represented in Nancy Mason Bradbury’s theoretically oriented contribution, while Jonathan Watson analyzes the interaction of scribal practice and oral tradition in the medieval alliterative tradition. John Hill’s description of oral recitation and composition in the Anglo-Saxon Beowulf leads to a challenging and nuanced discussion of secondary orality and hypertextuality by Michael Joyce, and finally to Samantha Zacher’s study of Cynewulf as an Old English poet operating at the orality-literacy interface. In characteristic fashion, this issue tackles both theory and real-world complexity, from the ancient and medieval worlds to the present day. Uniquely, we also have the honor to announce the inauguration of The Aeolian Prize, which has been created in order to inspire research and scholarship on the oral traditions of the Aeolian Islands north of Sicily. The Aeolian Prize of $1000 and publication in Oral Tradition will be awarded to the best manuscript received by September 30, 2004 (see the guidelines at the back of this issue). Professional and non-professional scholars and writers from all disciplines are welcome to participate. Finally, with the next number of OT (18.1) we will begin a year-long special issue on the state of the art in our heterogeneous and interdisciplinary field. For these two issues approximately 80 authors from a broad spectrum of individual specialties have contributed thumbnail responses to the following two questions: (1) What does oral tradition mean in your particular discipline? and (2) What are the most exciting developments in your area? Authors were allowed only 500 words and 5-10 citations to answer questions that could have elicited volumes, but the idea is rather to “take the pulse” of the collective field in 2003, the eighteenth year of OT’s history, and thereby to offer to nonspecialists some perspectives that may prove useful at the level of analogy.

  • Disciplina Della Parola, Educazione Del Cittadino Analisi Del Liber De Doctrina Dicendi Et Tacendi Di Albertano Da Brescia*
    Disciplina della parola, educazione del cittadino Analisi del Liber de doctrina dicendi et tacendi di Albertano da Brescia* Fabiana Fraulini (Università di Bologna) Between the 12th and the 13th century the institutional evolution that took place in the Italian Communes determines a change into the communicative practices. This phenomen was accompanied by a new consideration of speech. This paper examines the Liber de doctrina dicendi et tacendi, written by Albertanus of Brescia in 1245. According to this author, in order to guarantee common good and civil harmony, the power of language to affect both society and individuals requires rules and regulations that lead people to an ethical use of the speech. Keywords: Albertanus of Brescia, Italian Communes, Medieval Rethoric, Political Thought I. Una nuova disciplina della parola: retorica e politica nei comuni italiani La riflessione sulla lingua, la cui disciplina e custodia risultano fondamentali per il raggiungimento della salvezza eterna – «La morte e la vita sono nelle mani della lingua» [Prov. 18.21] –, ha accompagnato tutto il pensiero medievale. Le parole degli uomini, segnate dal peccato, devono cercare di assomigliare il più possibile alla parola divina, di cui restano comunque un’immagine imperfetta. Prerogativa della Chiesa, unica depositaria della parola di Dio, il dispositivo di valori e di norme che disciplina la parola viene, tra il XII e il XIII secolo, messo a dura prova dai cambiamenti avvenuti nell’articolazione sociale e nei bisogni culturali e religiosi delle collettività.

  • An Exploration of Gender, Sexuality and Queerness in Cis- Female Drag Queen Performance
    School of Media, Culture & Creative Arts Faux Queens: an exploration of gender, sexuality and queerness in cis- female drag queen performance. Jamie Lee Coull This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University November 2015 DECLARATION To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgment has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Human Ethics The research presented and reported in this thesis was conducted in accordance with the National Health and Medical Research Council National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research (2007) – updated March 2014. The proposed research study received human research ethics approval from the Curtin University Human Research Ethics Committee (EC00262), Approval Number #MCCA-12-12. Signature: Date: 20/11/2015 i ABSTRACT This PhD thesis investigates the cultural implications of cis-women performing female drag, with particular focus on cis-female drag queens (aka faux queens) who are straight-identified. The research has been completed as creative production and exegesis, and both products address the central research question. In the introductory chapter I contextualise the theatrical history of male-to-female drag beginning with the Ancient Greek stage, and foreground faux queens as the subject of investigation. I also outline the methodology employed, including practice-led research, autoethnography, and in-depth interview, and provide a summary of each chapter and the creative production Agorafaux-pas! - A drag cabaret. The introduction presents the cultural implications of faux queens that are also explored in the chapters and creative production.

  • New Latin Grammar
    NEW LATIN GRAMMAR BY CHARLES E. BENNETT Goldwin Smith Professor of Latin in Cornell University Quicquid praecipies, esto brevis, ut cito dicta Percipiant animi dociles teneantque fideles: Omne supervacuum pleno de pectore manat. —HORACE, Ars Poetica. COPYRIGHT, 1895; 1908; 1918 BY CHARLES E. BENNETT PREFACE. The present work is a revision of that published in 1908. No radical alterations have been introduced, although a number of minor changes will be noted. I have added an Introduction on the origin and development of the Latin language, which it is hoped will prove interesting and instructive to the more ambitious pupil. At the end of the book will be found an Index to the Sources of the Illustrative Examples cited in the Syntax. C.E.B. ITHACA, NEW YORK, May 4, 1918 PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. The present book is a revision of my Latin Grammar originally published in 1895. Wherever greater accuracy or precision of statement seemed possible, I have endeavored to secure this. The rules for syllable division have been changed and made to conform to the prevailing practice of the Romans themselves. In the Perfect Subjunctive Active, the endings -īs, -īmus, -ītis are now marked long. The theory of vowel length before the suffixes -gnus, -gna, -gnum, and also before j, has been discarded. In the Syntax I have recognized a special category of Ablative of Association, and have abandoned the original doctrine as to the force of tenses in the Prohibitive. Apart from the foregoing, only minor and unessential modifications have been introduced. In its main lines the work remains unchanged.

In “Old English Ecologies,” I apply the relatively new critical perspectives of ecocriticism and place- based study to the Anglo-Saxon canon to reveal the depth and changeability in these literary landscapes.

  • Rites of Passage and Oral Storytelling in Romanian Epic and the New Testament
    Oral Tradition, 17/2 (2002): 236-258 Rites of Passage and Oral Storytelling in Romanian Epic and the New Testament Margaret H. Beissinger The exploration of traditional narratives that circulated in the pre- modern age through the comparative study of contemporary genres has a rich precedent in the groundbreaking work of Milman Parry and Albert Lord. Starting in the 1930s, Parry and Lord sought to gain insight into the compositional style of the Homeric epics by observing and analyzing Yugoslav oral epic poets and their poetry. Their findings and conclusions were seminal. In 1960, Lord posited that traditional singers compose long sung poetry in isometric verses in performance through their reliance on groups of words that are regularly used-—as parts of lines, entire lines, and groups of lines—to represent ideas in the poetry.1 This became known as the theory of oral-formulaic composition and has had profound implications in the study of epic and other traditional genres from ancient to modern times.2 Oral epic is no longer performed in today’s former Yugoslavia. But there are still traces of traditional narrative poetry elsewhere in the Balkans, namely in southern Romania, where I have done much fieldwork among epic singers and at epic performances. Though greatly inspired by the work of Parry and Lord, my goals in this article, of course, are far humbler. I examine narrative patterns in a Romanian epic song cycle in order to offer possible models for the further study of oral storytelling in the New Testament. My exploration centers on epics of initiation and the nature of the initiatory hero.

Petrovié Njegoš 1813— 1851 I Leben и n d p о 1 i t i s с h e s Wirken Njegoš stammte aus dem montenegrinischen Dorfe Njeguži unterhalb des Lovcen, aus der Familie Petrovié, in der sich seit dem Ende des 17. Jahr- hunderts die Bischofswürde forterbte. 1813 geboren, war der junge Rade — dies war sein Taufname — zunächst nicht zum Bischofsamte aus- ersehen, sondern wurde erst 1826 von seinem Onkel, Petar I., zum Nach- folger bestimmt. Damit fand die sorglose Kindheit ein jähes Ende. Im Kloster von Cetinje und anschließend in Topla bei Hercegnovi erhielt er die für sein künftiges Amt notwendige Ausbildung; wegen der Kürze der Zeit und des Fehlens sonstiger Voraussetzungen konnte sie weder sehr umfassend noch sehr gründlich sein. Vielfältige Anregungen wurden jedoch dem künftigen Dichter durch den serbischen Freiheitskämpfer und damals schon berühmten Poeten Sima Milutinovié vermittelt, der 1827 sein Amt als Sekretär des Bischofs und Lehrer des jungen Rade antrat.
