Vol. 51 No. 2 (2022): Večjezičnost v folklori / Multilingualism in Folklore
Volume Editors: Marija Klobčar and Urša Šivic
This issue of Traditiones focuses on revealing and interpreting cross-linguistic song connections in their contextual settings. The authors, Hana Urbancová, Ameneh Youssefzadeh, Marjeta Pisk, Mojca Ravnik, Marija Klobčar, Mojca Kovačič, and Urša Šivic, examine song and music practices in various multilingual communities, some with a focus on border areas. Through historical analysis and contemporary reflections, they reveal characteristics that highlight not only the diversity of the examined social contexts but also the different expressing possibilities of bilingual songs. These questions transcend local and temporal contexts, opening new horizons for folklore studies.
