Abstract

This interdisciplinary Master’s Thesis outlines the collected material from oral literature in the region of North Moslavina. A part of the collection comprises the previously written texts mainly in ethnomusicological literature, and the other part includes the field research conducted in the period between December 2015 and May 2017. There are two approaches to the collected material: the first is a folkloristic analysis with regard to the genres and their classification, and in the second the study of the function of oral literature in this microregion opens up a possibility for an interdisciplinary research, i.e. application of the theories and conclusions from the aspects of ethnology and cultural anthropology. Therefore, the collected written material (mainly poetry) is studied on the track of the elements of Slavic mythology, whereas the collected field research is analysed within the framework of social memory and identity.
