Zusammenfassung: | An astonishingly rich oral epic that chronicles the early history of a Bedouin tribe, the Sirat Bani Hilal has been performed for almost a thousand years. In this ethnography of a contemporary community of professional poet-singers, Dwight F. Reynolds reveals how the epic tradition continues to provide a context for social interaction and commentary. Reynolds’s account is based on performances in the northern Egyptian village in which he studied as an apprentice to a master epic-singer. Reynolds explains in detail the narrative structure of the Sirat Bani Hilal as well as the tradition of epic singing. He sees both living epic poets and fictional epic heroes as figures engaged in an ongoing dialogue with audiences concerning such vital issues as ethnicity, religious orientation, codes of behavior, gender roles, and social hierarchies |

Reynolds Ithaca, NY Cornell University Press [2018] © 1995 1 online resource txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Myth and Poetics Description based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 22. Jun 2018) An astonishingly rich oral epic that chronicles the early history of a Bedouin tribe, the Sirat Bani Hilal has been performed for almost a thousand years. In this ethnography of a contemporary community of professional poet-singers, Dwight F. Reynolds reveals how the epic tradition continues to provide a context for social interaction and commentary. Reynolds’s account is based on performances in the northern Egyptian village in which he studied as an apprentice to a master epic-singer. Reynolds explains in detail the narrative structure of the Sirat Bani Hilal as well as the tradition of epic singing. He sees both living epic poets and fictional epic heroes as figures engaged in an ongoing dialogue with audiences concerning such vital issues as ethnicity, religious orientation, codes of behavior, gender roles, and social hierarchies In English Sīrat Banī Hilāl (DE-588)4435964-0 gnd rswk-swf Erzähltechnik (DE-588)4124854-5 gnd rswk-swf Arabisch (DE-588)4241223-7 gnd rswk-swf Beni Hilāl Motiv (DE-588)4469286-9 gnd rswk-swf Mündliche Literatur (DE-588)4131940-0 gnd rswk-swf Mündliche Überlieferung (DE-588)4040600-3 gnd rswk-swf Beni Hilāl (DE-588)4208326-6 gnd rswk-swf Araber (DE-588)4002528-7 gnd rswk-swf Erzählung (DE-588)4015464-6 gnd rswk-swf 1\p (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content 2\p (DE-588)4113937-9 Hochschulschrift gnd-content Sīrat Banī Hilāl (DE-588)4435964-0 u 3\p DE-604 Beni Hilāl Motiv (DE-588)4469286-9 s Erzählung (DE-588)4015464-6 s Araber (DE-588)4002528-7 s Mündliche Überlieferung (DE-588)4040600-3 s DE-604 Arabisch (DE-588)4241223-7 s Beni Hilāl (DE-588)4208326-6 s Mündliche Literatur (DE-588)4131940-0 s Erzähltechnik (DE-588)4124854-5 s https://www.degruyter.com/doi/book/10.7591/9781501723223 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
