JEROME CLER.
Yayla: Musique et musiciens de villages en Turquie Meridionale [With a CD]. Preface de Nicolas Elias.
New French Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In French. 354, [4] p., 8 numerous color plates, 1 CD. "Les Yayla sont les estives où les yörük, nomades et semi-nomades turkmènes, mènent leurs troupeaux au mois de mai, dans de longues transhumances; et c est plus souvent, désormais, le lieu où ces nomades ont fini par se sédentariser. Ainsi, au sud-ouest de la Turquie, non loin de la Méditerranée, dans quelques yayla du Taurus occidental, des musiciens répètent à l'envi de petites musiques formulaires pour inciter des parents ou amis à danser. Ceux-ci enchaînent les figures bras levés, en tournoyant, sur un cycle de quatre pas, dont un suspendu. La musique du lieu révèle son charme discret, mais irrésistible: une métrique boiteuse omniprésente, des mélodies dont l'ambitus ne dépasse guère une sixte, et qu il est difficile au premier abord de distinguer entre elles, tant les lois combinatoires de leur formation sont subtiles. Ainsi ces anciens nomades suspendent-ils le temps, en l'enfermant dans le cercle de la répétition, de la ritournelle. L'ethnomusicologue, venu là d abord pour apprendre les secrets du bag;lama, petit luth emblématique de cette société, y rencontre l amitié indéfectible des maîtres de musique, derniers témoins de la vie pastorale d antan. Ensemble ils interrogent le devenir et les mutations de cette société, depuis le passé préservé dans les mémoires, jusqu au présent ethnograhique; en s immergeant dans le temps vécu, en épousant ses rythmes, l'ethnomusicologue apprend à capter les vibrations et les intensités qui traversent ce territoire, à saisir les enjeux esthétiques et politiques qui's y expérimentent. La monographie qui en résulte part de ce petit pays de danseurs, de ses conceptions musicales, de ses habitus, en explorant les concepts de rythme, de territoire, de minorité. Interrogeant la nature profonde de ce monde rural qui reste fort peu étudié par l anthropologie, l auteur propose une géomusicologie: car la musique est ici non seulement objet d étude, mais aussi trait d union entre un paysage et les hommes qui l'habitent.".

BAL: 7168 First edition.</p><p>Uncle Remus Returns is a posthumous collection of African American folktales compiled by Joel Chandler Harris and published in book form in 1918. The volume serves as a sequel to his highly popular yet historically controversial plantation folklore series. The text originally appeared as stories published between 1905 and 1906 in the <em>Metropolitan Magazine</em> before being consolidated into a single volume. Folklore scholars note that the stories in this specific volume weave together a mix of traditional African European and regional indigenous folklore themes.</p><p>Joel Chandler Harris was an American journalist fiction writer and folklorist best known for his collection of Uncle Remus stories. Harris was born in Eatonton Georgia where he served as an apprentice on a plantation during his teenage years. He spent the majority of his adult life in Atlanta working as an associate editor at the Atlanta Constitution. Harris led two professional lives: as the editor and journalist known as Joe Harris he supported a vision of the New South with the editor Henry W. Grady 1880–1889 stressing regional and racial reconciliation after the Reconstruction era. As Joel Chandler Harris fiction writer and folklorist he wrote many 'Brer Rabbit' stories from the African-American oral tradition and helped to revolutionize literature in the process.<br /><br /><strong>Condition:</strong><br /><br />Some staining to back cover previous owner's neat ink gift inscription to front end paper.

Jolif Thierry
La tradizione celtica
br. Vivendo nell'epoca della parola scritta e delle immagini, è difficile comprendere società del passato immerse nella dimensione dell'oralità, del sacro e del simbolico. Per l'uomo contemporaneo è poi impossibile accettare il fatto che alcune fra esse fossero decisamente evolute. Eppure la civiltà celtica fu esattamente questo, anche se il suo progresso non va misurato sul piano della tecnica, dei diritti individuali o della ricchezza materiale, ma sulla base della tradizione, di un corpus di valori tramandato per via iniziatica, da maestro a discepolo: valori molto diversi, ad esempio, da quelli cristiani, visto che la distinzione tra bene e male era sconosciuta e le categorie di vero e falso erano sinonimi di equilibrio e caos. Questo volume presenta gli aspetti più interessanti di tale tradizione - le sue origini nell'estremo Nord, il druidismo, la credenza negli stati multipli dell'Essere, gli ogham, le varie forme di medicina, i concetti di tempo, sacrificio, eternità, fino alla nozione fondamentale di sovranità -, in un costante raffronto con la cristianità del Nord Europa e senza trascurare il recente, ma piuttosto vitale, fenomeno del neopaganesimo di ispirazione celtica. Completano l'esposizione un glossario e appendici dedicate alle armi simboliche, ai talismani e alla musica.
