The Black Gentleman: Manifestations of the Devil in Estonian Folk Religion
AU$50 Read MoreAdd to cartUlo Valk
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.This empirical study of the Devil in the collections of the Estonian Folklore Archives, reflecting the world of belief inhabited by the Estonians in the 19th and 20th centuries, is also a book about suspicion and fear in everyday life. It describes how religious folklore has drawn borders between the human and the non-human, how it has modelled the Other, the supernatural and social evil. As a study of folk narrative, and legends in particular, it mainly discusses variation at the level of motif with special reference to the visual guises of the Devil.

The Matti Kuusi International Type System of Proverbs
AU$40 Read MoreAdd to cartOuti Lauhakangas
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.From 1965 to 1974 Matti Kuusi was editor-in-chief of the famous journal Proverbium and invited proverb scholars to contribute to this forum. During this period he began to keep a card index of literature references to proverb types and made his first experiment in the thematic classification of international proverb materials in the 1970s. This volume is a study of the development of this type system. Outi Lauhakangas attempts to show how her father’s practical dream of a common international reference code came to be realised. The reader will find a list of some 700 global or almost global proverb motifs and can access the database via the website of The Finnish Literature Society. FF Communications No. 275 published by the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters.

A Study of Eastern Moroccan Fairy Tales
AU$40 Read MoreAdd to cartMaarten Kossmann
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.This book studies the structure and style of orally transmitted fairy tales from Eastern Morocco in Berber and dialectal Arabic. Drawing on materials collected in his own fieldwork and other sources, the author pays special attention to the aesthetics of the fairy tale as understood by Max Lüthi and to the analysis of tale-specific formulae. Two hitherto unpublished Figuig Berber fairy tales are appended, as is a comparison of two versions of an Eastern Riffian story which, though collected independently at an interval of 60 years, show remarkable similarities.

Attitudes and Interpretations in Comparative Religion
AU$50 Read MoreAdd to cartRene Gothoni
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.What is the attitude of the scholar of Comparative Religion to religion and religiosity? What is the specific method in Comparative Religion? Does the study of religions differ from other corresponding disciplines? The present volyme tries to answer these questions on the basis of fieldwork among Sinhalese Buddhist monks in Sri Lanka and Orthodox monks and pilgrims on the Holy Mountain of Athos in Greece. Apart from refining a more perceptive view of religion and religiosity, study elucidates the definition of religion and the principles applied in the comparative study of religions by factual cases from these two cultural fields.

A Motif-Index of Luis Rosado Vega’s Mayan Legends
AU$40 Read MoreAdd to cartJim C. Tatum
Helskinki: Suomalainen Tiedeakatemia, 2000.The Mayan Culture, long recognised as among the most advanced indigenous groups of Latin America, possesses a rich heritage of mythology and traditions still very apparent in the Yacatan Peninsula at the closing of the twentieth century. Although Mayan legends have been studied and published as early as 1844, there exists no extensive motif-index dealing with the topic. This work attempts to help fill that need by indexing the works of Yacatecan writer Luis Rosaldo Vega. FF Communications No. 271 published by the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters.
