Soviet Structural Folkloristics: Vol. 1
Pierre Maranda (editor)
This book is one of the results of the team work done in the Centre for the Computerised and Semantic Analysis of Myth at the University of British Columbia. Our activity is threefold: (1) investigation, development, and test of theoretical and analytic models; (2) elaboration of computer programs for the semantic analysis of myths; and (3) actual analyses of Northwest Pacific Indian and of Melanesian myths. Our search for operational models and testable hypotheses led us to the recent publications of some prominent Soviet colleagues. We found these contributions valuable enough to deserve translation. A subgroup - T. Popoff, S. Reid, G. Quijano, M. Layton, W. Jilek, L. Jilek Aall, and M. Calcowski - studied the articles published in German, French, or Russian, translated them, and tested the approaches. We are happy to make the results available to our fellow anthropologists, folklorists, and
semioticians in the hope that better and ever more rigorous approaches will continue to heighten the quality of the procedures in our related fields.
