  5. Delighted that this is now published (open access) in TFH: The Journal of Folklore and History. It started life as a 90th birthday present for the great Jacqueline Simpson, and hopefully hasn't lost too much of the spirit that motivated it in the first place.

  10. Well. The British government is finally ratifying the UNESCO Convention on ICH. I've always had reservations about it (conceptually, not least), but this is extremely interesting news for #folklorists.

  15. 📢#OutNow in #OA: 'Play in a #Covid Frame: Everyday #Pandemic #Creativity in a Time of #Isolation', edited by Anna Beresin and Julia Bishop.

    During the international #coronavirus #lockdowns of 2020–2021, millions of children, youth, and adults found their usual play areas out of bounds and their friends out of reach.

    How did the #pandemic restrict everyday play and how did the pandemic offer new spaces and new content? This unique collection of essays documents the ways in which #communities around the world harnessed play within the limiting frame of #COVID19

    #Folklorists Anna Beresin and Julia Bishop adopt a multidisciplinary approach to this phenomenon, bringing together the insights of a #geographically and #demographically diverse range of #scholars, #practitioners, and #community #activists.

  20. Hey #folklore peeps, I thought I'd have another go at searching out some of the #academic #folklorist types who tried to follow me when this instance had its little glitch a while back, as well as other lovely #folklorists who may have arrived here since.

    Hit me up with suggestions...

  25. I've pinned and reboosted my #introduction, but I thought I'd have another bash round the potted summary of hashtags as I try to reconnect with stuff lost in the past few days.

    #folklore is pretty much the most important to me - I'm an #academic #folklorist, do #fieldwork, think & write about #folkloristics, and really really REALLY like hanging out with/listening to other #folklorists.

    I started off with #folk, #folksong, #folkmusic, ended up doing a PhD on #ghostlore #ghosts #ghost but love/am interested in all sorts of stuff, like #cannibalism, #rats, #folkhorror

    Other important things:
    #surrealism #fantomas #Dowland #Classics #Berlioz

    Live on #isleofwight, like at the end of Day of the Triffids.

  30. New #introduction as the previous one disappeared!

    I'm a folklorist and writer, living in North Carolina, USA. My specialty is the cultural heritage of the American South, especially the Carolinas.

    I direct the North Carolina Folklife Institute (ncfolk.org), a nonprofit dedicated to folklife documentation. I also edit the Old-Time Herald (oldtimeherald.org), a magazine about traditional music of #Appalachia and related styles. I play old-time #fiddle and #banjo.

    I'm currently collaborating with historian and potter Hal Pugh on a history of folk #pottery in the South, to be published in fall 2024 by @uncpress . Hal and I also research Southern folk gravestone carving.

    My family goes back centuries in the Carolinas and #Cuba, and #genealogy has been a project since childhood. I collect #78rpm records, as well as old photos (mainly of the pre-WWII Southern US).

    Also love #cats, #ghoststories, and #reptiles.

  35. I gather the reboosting of introductions is A Thing, particularly following the instance problems and lost content for recent days. I'll do that again in a minute, in the hope that I can find again all the #academic #folklorists who hove to while I couldn't authorise follow requests and now can't seem to be found anywhere...
