  • COMMEMORATION MY MEMORIES of ALAN DUNDES a Belated
    Acta Ethnographica Hungarica, 53 (2), pp. 451–456 (2008) DOI: 10.1556/AEthn.53.2008.2.16 COMMEMORATION MY MEMORIES OF ALAN DUNDES A belated necrology On Wednesday, March 30, 2005, at 4.30 p.m., Alan Dundes, the greatest American folklorist of the last half century collapsed in mid-sentence while holding his graduate seminar. He died in the ambulance. As the first reports of his death all noted: it was a typical and worthy death for the outstanding professor who loved to teach. Dundes was born in New York on September 8, 1934. He received his BA and then his MA in English philology at Yale (1955 and 1958), and continued his doctoral studies in Bloomington as a folklorist. His PhD dissertation (1962) was a monograph on the morphology of North American Indian tales. By then Dundes was already publishing regularly and everyone knew the very knowledgeable, dynamic and innovative young man with the brilliant tongue. He went almost immediately (in 1963) to the anthropology department of the University of California, Berkeley. He was an excellent lecturer and hundreds attended his lessons or waited for years for the chance to do so. He received awards as an outstanding professor and teacher, as well as the most coveted American and European folklore prizes. Although he did not like to be involved in associations, to organise congresses and journals, his activity in these areas was also substantial. He trav- elled a lot in his earlier years but later he was a guest lecturer and keynote speaker at conferences only within the United States (although he was difficult to reach).

Winick ntroduction I During the 1990s, I observed several folklore forms at work among young medical professionals in New York City and Phila- delphia. Among them were the proverb “You can’t kill shit,” and its variants “Shit never dies” and “Scum never dies.” These prov- erbs proved fascinating not only in themselves but as a theoreti- cal window into the workings of occupational proverbs, both as a subset of the proverb genre and a subset of occupational folk cul- ture. On the one hand, the existence of such proverbs suggested that mainstream proverb theory needed some refi nement.

  • Oral Tradition, 8/1 (1993): 159-86
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Missouri: MOspace Oral Tradition, 8/1 (1993): 159-86 Strategies for the Presentation of Oral Traditions in Print Eric L. Montenyohl The study of literature entails several fundamental concerns. These usually include matters of creation, form, history, meaning, and significance. However, if “literature” is no longer restricted only to written works1 and encompasses all works of verbal art (oral and orally based, as well as written), then other matters must also be considered. Oral traditions occur in contexts (cultural, social, linguistic), and without consideration of these contexts one cannot begin to deal with questions of function, meaning, and significance. Learning to present and analyze performances of oral traditions—at all levels—as literature may teach scholars a great deal more about how and how not to view all literature. In the study of literature, certain forms have been privileged and have attracted most of the attention of scholars and critics. In written literature, drama, lyric and narrative poetry, and certain kinds of prose fiction (the novel and short story) dominate in Western culture. In the study of oral traditions, it has been the epic, with lesser interest in folktales and ballads. Yet the range of forms available for study is much broader. In oral tradition this may include forms as diverse as legend and proverb; folktale and belief; myth and personal narrative; riddle, joke, and anecdote. These may be found among nearly all familial, regional, occupational, social, and 1 I take literature to be verbal expression valued for its aesthetic qualities.

In the autograph works are included all paintings which on documentary or stylistic evidence appear to be by, or partly by, the hand of Caravaggio. The attributed works include all paintings that have been associated with Caravaggio’s name in critical writings but which, in the opinion of the present writer, cannot be fully accepted as his, and those of uncertain attribution which he has not been able to examine personally. Some works listed here as copies are regarded as autograph by other authorities. Lost works, whose catalogue numbers are preceded by “L,” are paintings whose current whereabouts are unknown which are ascribed to Caravaggio in seventeenth-century documents, inventories, and in other sources. The catalogue of lost works describes a wide variety of material, including paintings considered copies of lost originals. Entries for untraced paintings include the city where they were identified in either a seventeenth-century source or inventory (“Inv.”). Most of the inventories have been published in the Getty Provenance Index, Los Angeles. Provenance, documents and sources, inventories and selective bibliographies are provided for the paintings by, after, and attributed to Caravaggio.

  • Folklore Matters: the Folklore Scholarship of Alan Dundes and the New American
    Folklore Matters: The Folklore Scholarship of Alan Dundes and the New American Studies Perin Gürel For Alan Dundes (1934-2005), teacher, mentor, folklorist. In 1989, Professor Alan Dundes wrote, “Most of my adult life as a professional folklorist has been devoted to explaining to undergraduates, graduate students, and interested members of the general public what folklore is, how we study it, and why folklore matters” (Preface, Folklore Matters vii). That folklore matters, and specifically that the folklore scholarship of Alan Dundes matters for “New Americanists,” is also the theme of this short review in honor of Professor Dundes, whom we lost on March 30th, 2005. According to folklorist Rosemary Lévy Zumwalt, Dundes’s position in the field of folklore can be compared to that of Franz Boas in Anthropology (“Alan Dundes” 24). With his research, publications and mentoring, Dundes shaped the study of folkloristics in the United States, and remained one of the field’s most influential minds, “the charismatic heart and center of the discipline” ( Zumwalt, Tribute). Dundes was the first American ever to win the Pitré prize, an international lifetime achievement award in folklore, the first folklorist to be elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and 1 Sciences, and the author of more than 250 trailblazing articles, author, co-author or editor of nearly 40 books, and the teacher of many distinguished folklorists. He has also been recognized as a leader in bridging the gap between an exclusively literary and an exclusively anthropological approach to folklore, bringing folkloristics to a new phase as a discipline (American Folklore 144).
