    FOLKLORE IN THE MASS MEDIA Priscilla Denby Folklore Institute Indiana University As the accompanying cartoon (see Appendix ) suggests ,l the disclosure of the powerful phenomenon known as the "media" in contemporary society is analogous to the opening of Pandora's box. It would seem that the media, a relatively new societal force, has literally "sprung up, It full-grown, in some mysterious fashion to the surprise and bewilderment of many -- and the consternation of a few -- and become a dominant influence in our cul- ture. Moreover, in keeping with the mythological analogy, it may be safe to assume that the artist equates the media with the societal ills which were released st the touch of Pandora's hand. Whether the media is indeed a general evil in present-day American society is debatable; what is to be briefly discussed here, however, is its effect upon, and how it is affected by, folklore. Based upon the small sampling of data collected in this study, I would tentatively hold that the media's influence upon and use of folklore has undergone a great change. In the 1920's and 1930's when American society seemed to be in need of some kind of folk image as a means of self-definition and identification, the media graciously obliged; the result was a virtual inundation of the "fakelore" typified by the "folk hero" tradition of a Paul Bunyan or a Johnny Appleseed. Today such figures still inhabit the media. Yet as far as I can tell, contemporary media is less cmcerned with the invention and promulgation of non-traditional lore and more concerned with traditional texts used in various contexts.

  • Heavenly Letters and Tales of the Forest: 'Superstition' Against Bolshevism1
    No.2 FORUM FOR ANTHROPOLOGY AND CULTURE 316 Steve Smith Heavenly Letters and Tales of the Forest: ‘Superstition’ against Bolshevism1 Introduction The Bolsheviks came to power in 1917 deter- mined to inculcate scientific rationality in a Russian people they considered to be steeped in religion and superstition. The Bolsheviks were inheritors of an Enlightenment tradition that saw religion as oppressive and reason as liber- ating. In the course of the nineteenth-century, this tradition became fused with a materialist epistemology that found a receptive audience in the Russian intelligentsia. Despite mounting challenges to Enlightenment confidence in the essential rationality and virtue of man towards the end of the nineteenth century, the Bolshe- viks maintained into the twentieth century the intelligentsias commitment to liberating the narod from religious and superstitious preju- dice, and to raising its cultural level through the Steve Smith University of Essex propagation of science. The inculcation of a 1 I should like to record my warm thanks to Marina Loskutova and Irina Paert who generously shared their ideas with me and helped radically to improve this piece. I would also like to thank the participants in the colloquium, ‘The Dangers of the Known World: Russian Popular Belief from 1800’ at New College, Oxford, on 22 October 2003, whose comments on an initial version of the article spurred me to develop it into its present form. In particular, I should mention Dan Beer, Catriona Kelly and Faith Wigzell. 317 CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS materialist world-view through education, propaganda, the printed word, the promotion of modern agriculture, and health care was a key item on their political agenda.

  • Christian Hospitality
    Christian Hospitality A Handbook for Parishes To obtain more copies of Christian Hospitality please contact: Archdiocese of Louisville (502) 585-3291 Created by agencies of the Archdiocese of Louisville. Photographs provided by THE RECORD. 5th Revision 2013 Permission is granted to duplicate any part of this book, as needed, for non-commercial use for parishes, schools, and other church related agencies. Otherwise, no part of this publication may be reproduced in any manner without prior written permission of the Archdiocese of Louisville. Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ: Welcome to the fourth revised edition of Christian Hospitality. First published in 1994, this handbook has served as a helpful resource for many parishes in our Archdiocese and beyond. Hospitality is a vital part of our baptismal call to invite all to come to know the good news of Jesus Christ. This ministry requires a welcoming spirit that offers opportunities for us to develop relationships of mutuality and solidarity. With its sections on liturgical hospitality, multicultural realities, welcoming persons with special needs, and reaching out beyond our parish boundaries, this handbook offers solid suggestions and food for thought in many areas of ministry and challenges us to deepen our practice of how to welcome all in Jesus’ name. I thank the many archdiocesan agencies that worked together to update and develop this material. As we present it again for use by parishes, let us seek the intercession of St. Benedict, the great monk and scholar whose ministry provides us with a deep sense of hospitality based upon reverence for the dignity of every person and upon our common journey toward union with our God.
