| Description | The book presents Czech broadside ballads as a twofold phenomenon: as a rendition of oral culture and of book printing. It brings together 36 unique musical and literary documents of the Czech broadside ballads recorded by František Lýsek and Jan Poláček in the twentieth century, based on the singing of folk singers. These documents are preserved in the collections of the Institute of Ethnology of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Brno. Each song is presented both as a recording of a folk singer and as a printed broadside ballad. These two versions are accompanied by detailed commentaries reflecting the history of the song from the ethnomusicological, musicological, ethnological, literary-historical, and linguistic perspectives. The edition is framed by specialized scholarly studies, studies detailing the notations, pictures, and several types of indexes. |
