Abstract: Along with the wide spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in the world, anti-Asian—especially anti-Chinese—incidents have risen rapidly, particularly in the United States. This article intends to relate current narratives to established oral tradition and argue for the role that traditional knowledge plays in cross-cultural encounters and contexts. The findings suggest that one strategy to achieve social and interracial integrity is to encourage more intercultural interactions between different groups and to challenge stereotyped ethnic boundaries.

Abstract: This article describes and classifies some of the memes, jokes, and other forms of humor that circulated on social media, blogs, and websites curated by health-care workers in the United States during the first six months of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020. This humor emerged in direct response to the chaotic information environment, an environment in which rumor, gossip, conspiracy theory, bad health information, and legend thrived both within and outside of official institutions such as the White House and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). I argue that the humor shared among health-care professionals can be seen as a response to threats to their authority and expert knowledge that emerged in these forms during the pandemic; they also were a traditional means of temporarily asserting power by inverting unhappy realities in a context in which health-care workers felt they had little power and control and in which their own personal safety was at risk.

Abstract:Little has been written on the figure of the Jew in traditional European fairy tales. Andrew Lang's The Blue Fairy Book (1889) opens with a little-known fairy tale, "The Bronze Ring," which features a wicked, sorcerous Jew as an antagonist. This essay examines the publication history of this tale and places the figure of the wicked Jewish magician in the context of traditional European Christian antisemitism as well as that of the British reaction to the waves of Ashkenazic Jewish immigration to England in the late nineteenth century. I conclude with a consideration of the role this story plays in the imperialist project of the colored fairy books.

Abstract:Here we outline several ways that power and identity are asserted and reconfigured through cross-cultural musical encounters, often distancing the "musical explorer" from complex or uncomfortable interactions with members of the communities they source. We take as a case study the founding and formative experiences of the Tenores de Aterue, a US-based quartet devoted to the study and performance of Sardinian cantu a tenore, in particular their interactions with Sardinian musicians and musical connoisseurs, both via YouTube and in their travels to Sardinia. In Part I we propose that a "musical explorer" can refine their practices of cross-cultural engagement by noting the number and range of culture brokers involved in a music's circulation. Part II addresses the possibilities and limitations of audacity (considered a hallmark characteristic of a tenore singers) as enacted by the Tenores de Aterue—outsiders to Sardinian culture and newcomers to cantu a tenore. Part III animates these issues in an extended narrative, recounting a period of heightened discomfort and disorientation in the group's travels. Through this case study, we move beyond determinations of whether appropriation took place in a musical encounter to consider how specific decisions shift power among a range of social actors.
摘要：在这里，我们概述了通过跨文化音乐接触来断言和重新配置权力和身份的几种方式，通常会使“音乐探险家”远离与他们来源的社区成员的复杂或不舒服的互动。我们以Tenores de Aterue的成立和形成经历为案例研究，这是一个总部位于美国的四重奏，致力于研究和表演撒丁岛的一首男高音，特别是他们通过YouTube和前往撒丁岛旅行时与撒丁岛音乐家和音乐鉴赏家的互动。在第一部分中，我们建议“音乐探索者”可以通过注意音乐发行中涉及的文化经纪人的数量和范围来完善他们的跨文化参与实践。第二部分论述了大胆（被认为是男高音歌手的标志性特征）的可能性和局限性，这是由阿泰鲁男高音（撒丁文化的局外人和男高音的新人）制定的。第三部分以扩展的叙事方式对这些问题进行了动画化处理，讲述了一段时间团队旅行中的不适感和迷失方向感加剧。通过这个案例研究，我们超越了对挪用是否发生在音乐遭遇中的确定，而是考虑了具体的决定如何在一系列社会参与者之间转移权力。

Abstract:Since the 1930s, Yugoslav "folk" or "traditional" dances have gained the attention of many scholars who were interested not only in studying their form, but their attachments to nationalism and prevailing political ideologies. Such cultural expressions, which were later labeled as "folklore," developed with Romantic nationalism in the Yugoslav area. In this paper, I argue that through their quest for collecting peasant music and dance expressions for the purpose of creating an archive, folklorists and dance researchers were invested in creating discourses that were directly dependent on the emergence and the politicization of terms such as narodna kultura (folk culture), "folklore," and "tradition." This series of shifts allowed for social dances to assume greater import and provide a source of pride and appreciation for the communities associated with their performance. Finally, I trace the creation and the development of the fields of folklore and ethnochoreology. In order to do so, I analyze the work of dance researchers in Yugoslavia and in independent Macedonia, Serbia, and Croatia, who collected and archived this body of knowledge and published some of the first texts that represent peasant dance as folklore.

Abstract:Beginning in 1847, a year after his graduation from Harvard College, Francis James Child, beloved Harvard professor, first president of the American Folklore Society, and perhaps the greatest ballad scholar of the nineteenth century, began what would become a twenty-year correspondence with his closest college friend and future brother-in-law, William Ellery Sedgwick. Based on this previously unknown cache of letters contained among the Sedgwick family papers deposited at the Massachusetts Historical Society, this essay will examine the first five years of Child's self-described "secret autobiography" for what it tells about the emotional experiences that shaped the man behind the ballads when he was a young, struggling academic trying to establish himself at Harvard, and not yet the patronym for traditional balladry.
摘要：从1847年开始，也就是从哈佛学院毕业一年后，弗朗西斯·詹姆斯·查尔德（Francis James Child）开始了与他最亲密的大学朋友、未来的妹夫威廉·埃勒里·塞奇威克（William Ellery Sedgwick）长达20年的通信。根据塞奇威克家族存放在马萨诸塞州历史学会的文件中的这批以前不为人知的信件，本文将研究Child自述的“秘密自传”的前五年，以了解它“讲述”了叙事诗背后的人年轻时的情感经历，努力在哈佛站稳脚跟的苦苦挣扎的学者，还不是传统民谣的赞助人。

Abstract:Director Mary Harron's 2011 film The Moth Diaries is a study of adolescent friendship, a vampire tale, and a story of female self-harm. The sensitive subject matters Moth considers, from self-harm in suicide and anorexia to passionate female companionship, intersect and intertwine where sexuality, death, and alimentary consumption are regulated through the normative discourses influencing their representation in cinema. Moth's narrative contours involving two suicidal adolescent girls, one of whom chooses to live, are familiar in heteronormative Anglo-American cinema, yet Harron's supernatural take and its emphasis on female friendships' role in the protagonist's recovery marks a feminist view on the topic. Main character Rebecca is influenced by her father's suicide, and offered a rescue through heterosexual romance, yet with the help of the vampire and her allusions to ATU 720, "The Juniper Tree," Rebecca gains agency and frees herself. Using crucial scenes and an interview with the director, we deconstruct the film's gendered visual economy of representation, rendered by Harron as a feminist resisting more conventional depictions. We see Moth, in its figure of the woman (sometimes lesbian) vampire, and in references to fairy tale, refusing a conventional understanding of young women's self-harm and recovery in passive, heteronormative modes.

Abstract:This essay considers the relationship between ethnography, reciprocity, and agency in teaching and learning. Starting with the early articulation of reciprocal ethnography defined by Dr. Elaine Lawless and following the trajectory of her scholarship of reciprocity, the author focuses particularly on the social justice promise of creating dialogical spaces through reciprocity and begins to explore what this may mean for creating new critical understandings about extant cultural social narratives. This is further considered in light of the enactment of reciprocal pedagogy, which, when extended with an aim toward progressive educational goals, centers inquiry which can disrupt normative authority through diverse perspectives. Engaging the powerful assertion that folk arts education can produce a Freirian ([1970] 2005) space of conscientização, or critical consciousness, the examples illustrate the potential for the sharing of analytical and interpretative power in order to create a fissure in the hierarchical world that chronically ascribes discursive power and agency to a limited cohort. Recognizing the relationship between reciprocal ethnography and agency proves liberatory in both classrooms and communities.

Abstract:In this essay I consider lessons learned working in collaboration with the people of Pinhook, Missouri and with my former teacher and current research partner, Elaine Lawless, in the years following a terrible human-made disaster. Considering the complexities of positionality in ethnographic research and the specific challenges of our collaboration with the displaced residents of Pinhook, this essay analyses a specific moment of disjuncture between the way key research collaborators came to understand their experience of displacement and recovery, and our understanding of it as researchers and presumed advocates. Accepting the failure inherent in ethnographic research moments such as this one—indeed in the very relationships we engage in with our research collaborators themselves—I offer the beginnings of an approach to that work that embraces failure as an inevitable, necessary, and even productive part of it.
