    A. L. Lloyd and Reynardine: Authenticity and Authorship in The

    Folklore 115 (December 2004): 286–308 RESEARCH ARTICLE A. L. Lloyd and Reynardine: Authenticity and Authorship in the Afterlife of a British Broadside Ballad Stephen D. Winick Abstract This paper presents new evidence concerning the broadside ballad “Reynardine,” which became popular in the British folksong revival movement of the 1960s and 1970s. It argues that the revival versions of this ballad were not products of the folk tradition, but rather descendants of a text authored by A. L. Lloyd, who was both a singer and a folksong scholar. The paper goes on to suggest reasons why Lloyd might have authored the ballad, and reasons why he might have concealed that authorship, placing its evidence and observations in the context of folkloristic concerns about authenticity and authorship, folklore and fakelore. Downloaded By: [Ingenta Content Distribution - Routledge] At: 23:48 1 May 2008 Introduction In Regina Bendix’s foundational study of the concept of authenticity in folklore studies, she points out a remarkable semantic reversal. “Authentic derives from the Greek ‘Authentes,’” she tells us, “which carries the dual meaning of ‘one who acts with authority’ and ‘made by one’s own hand’” (Bendix 1997, 14). Yet, “authentic” in folklore has usually meant the opposite: that which is made by no discernable hand, imbued with no individual’s authority, because it has been re-made by the forces of impersonal tradition (Bendix 1997, 15). While “authentic” and “author” share an etymological root, authorial practices are usually taken to produce inauthentic folklore; Richard Dorson famously coined the word “fakelore” for materials created by authors and passed off as products of folk tradition (Dorson 1969).

    Topic Records 80th Anniversary Start time: 8pm Running time: 2 hours 40 minutes with interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change Martin Aston discusses the history behind the world’s oldest independent label ahead of this collaborative performance. When Topic Records made its debut in 1939 with Paddy Ryan’s ‘The Man That Waters The Workers’ Beer’, an accordion-backed diatribe against capitalist businessmen who underpay their employees, it’s unlikely that anyone involved was thinking of the future – certainly not to 2019, when the label celebrates its 80th birthday. In any case, the future would have seemed very precarious in 1939, given the outbreak of World War II, during which Topic ceased most activity (shellac was particularly hard to source). But post-1945, the label made good on its original brief: ‘To use popular music to educate and inform and improve the lot of the working man,’ explains David Suff, the current spearhead of the world’s oldest independent label – and the undisputed home of British folk music. Tonight at the Barbican (where Topic held their 60th birthday concerts), musical director Eliza Carthy – part of the Topic recording family since 1997, though her parents Norma Waterson and Martin Carthy have been members since the sixties and seventies respectively - has marshalled a line-up to reflect the passing decades, which hasn’t been without its problems. ‘We have far too much material, given it’s meant to be a two-hour show!’ she says. ‘It’s impossible to represent 80 years – you’re talking about the left-wing leg, the archival leg, the many different facets of society - not just communists but farmers and factory workers - and the folk scene in the Fifties, the Sixties, the Seventies..

  • 'Across the Evening Sky': the Late Voices of Sandy Denny, Judy Collins

    'Across the Evening Sky': the Late Voices of Sandy Denny, Judy Collins

    © Copyrighted Material Chapter 9 ‘Across the Evening Sky’: The Late Voices of Sandy Denny, Judy Collins and Nina Simone Richard Elliott In 2006, shortly before her 67th birthday, the American singer-songwriter Judy Collins undertook a tour of Australia and New Zealand, her first visit to the region in forty years. A number of press features and interviews accompanied Collins’s visit, several of which were still featured at the top of the ‘Press’ section of the artist’s website at the time of writing this chapter. One of the features, entitled ‘Who Knows Where the Time Goes?’ after one of Collins’s 1960s hits, presented a reflection on the artist’s career alongside observations on age and assertions of continued vitality.1 Another, entitled ‘Gem of a Voice Shines On’, described some of Collins’s most successful performances, including her recording of Joni Mitchell’s ‘Both Sides Now’. ‘Its harpsichord tinkling has dated’, wrote the journalist, ‘but Collins’ voice, warm and wise beyond its years, renders the song timeless.’2 I use these examples because they provide a foretaste of the themes of age, time and experience with which I wish to engage in this chapter, as well as a reference to the song upon which I will base my observations. The first aspect to note is the way in which an artist of Collins’s longevity can afford to leave her website out of date in terms of publicity; the fact that the featured stories are seven years old at the time of access matters little when considering an artist whose performing career spans more than five decades.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 ABSTRACT Certain recent studies of South Asian entrepreneurial acti­ vity have suggested that customary social and cultural const­ raints have prevented positive response to economic develop­ ment programmes. Constraints including the conservative mentality of the traditional merchant castes, over-attention to custom, ritual and status and the prevalence of the joint family in management structures have been regarded as the main inhibitors of rational economic behaviour, leading to the conclusion that externally-directed development pro­ grammes cannot be successful without changes in ideology and behaviour. A focus upon the indigenous concepts of the traditional merchant castes of a market town in Rajasthan and their role in organising business behaviour, suggests that the social and cultural factors inhibiting positivejto a presen­ ted economic opportunity, stimulated in part by external, public sector agencies, are conversely responsible for the dynamism of private enterprise which attracted the attention of the concerned authorities.

    (In)Stability in Hindu Kush Indo-Aryan Languages Henrik Liljegren Stockholm University

    Chapter 10 Gender typology and gender (in)stability in Hindu Kush Indo-Aryan languages Henrik Liljegren Stockholm University This paper investigates the phenomenon of gender as it appears in 25 Indo-Aryan languages (sometimes referred to as “Dardic”) spoken in the Hindu Kush-Karako- rum region – the mountainous areas of northeastern Afghanistan, northern Pak- istan and the disputed territory of Kashmir. Looking at each language in terms of the number of genders present, to what extent these are sex-based or non-sex- based, how gender relates to declensional differences, and what systems of assign- ment are applied, we arrive at a micro-typology of gender in Hindu Kush Indo- Aryan, including a characterization of these systems in terms of their general com- plexity. Considering the relatively close genealogical ties, the languages display a number of unexpected and significant differences. While the inherited sex-based gender system is clearly preserved in most of the languages, and perhaps even strengthened in some, it is curiously missing altogether in others (such as in Kalasha and Khowar) or seems to be subject to considerable erosion (e.g. in Dameli). That the languages of the latter kind are all found at the northwestern outskirts ofthe Indo-Aryan world suggests non-trivial interaction with neighbouring languages without gender or with markedly different assignment systems. In terms of com- plexity, the southwestern-most corner of the region stands out; here we find a few languages (primarily belonging to the Pashai group) that combine inherited sex- based gender differentiation with animacy-related distinctions resulting in highly complex agreement patterns.

Introduction: State of Jammu and Kashmir was founded by Gulab Singh of Jammu initially by establishing his rule over dozens of chiefdom or principalities of “Aap Raji” period, which emerged at that time in Jammu & Pir Panjal region during the last days of Mughal Empire. He did it by taking advantage of his position as a trustworthy great vassal of powerful Sikh Maharaja of Punjab. Gulab Singh realized British Military might after the defeat of Punjab by colonial power. He preferred to make them friend and also managed to extend his rule over the ancient kingdom of Kashmir by founding the state of Jammu & Kashmir as a consequence of the treaty of Amritsar.
