WELCOME

FROM THE PRESIDENT | 4. 4 year ago in Boston we began the celebration of our Society’s centennial. .

Owing to the labors of many, among whom | would like to thank publicly Roger Abrahams and his Centennial Coordinating Council and my predecessor Alan Jabbour, the meeting was exhilarating and useful. We looked backward, re-

| minding ourselves of the diversity of the Society’s founders. We reflected on the ! success of their endeavor. Late in our first century, folklore matured as a profes- | sion and we began to claim a central position in the argument over the nature and destiny of humankind. In our success lies a potential for failure. As professionals we cannot allow i

our discipline or Society to narrow its vision. Turning our gaze to the future, we ! |

past. , | , , | Henry Glassie | . ) President must reaffirm the breadth and complexity of our heritage. Our Society should be a home to people of all vocations, academic and not, public and private, who cherish the human rights to creative expression and voluntary association, who |

are dedicated to the virtues of tradition, who are committed through serious 7 study and compassionate engagement to shaping a future that is better than the | | Well begun on our second century, we must join with all who share our

world and our predicament. Welcoming all to this meeting, I welcome with par- : ticular warmth the visitors from abroad who honor us with their presence and | offer us an invitation to international action on behalf of the singers of song and

hewers of wood who are the heroes of the epic we compose collectively. ' -

PREFACE

~~ hen it was determined that Bill Clements and I should divide the duties for the two centennial program supplements—with Bill editing the 1988 retrospective volume and my editing the 1989 “look ahead”—I complained that the apparent balance in this division concealed a disparity in the actual tasks: Bill had 100 years to consider, while I had only today and tomorrow. The approach to the 1989 program I finally settled upon is probably less ceremonial than the original mission implied, but more literally true to the division itself, bonding present to past in a way that will complete the cycle of celebration and recollection begun last year. Of course, the plans for this centennial year (and this book) were drawn five years ago, and I would like to thank their architects—Marta Weigle, Roger Abrahams, and Rayna Green — for guidance, and for the opportunity to pull together the varied threads that comprise this volume. Special thanks go to Tim Lloyd, who saw to it that this last piece of centennial business fell into place. Since I have chosen to let the writings that follow speak largely for themselves, let me say a bit about the composition of the book. The “Names” section is intended to conjure the past, present and future by offering both today’s and tomorrow’s readers a composite of the Society’s 1889 and 1989 membership. The “Faces” section began with a list of those roles commonly adopted by folklorists today—some, but not all of which we have become accustomed to referring to as professions. I invited people whom I knew to have occupied these roles to describe how their training and point-of-view bore upon the role, not as an occupational badge, but as one of several ways inwhich folklorists apply and exercise their abilities. There is as much variety in the interpretations my invited contributors made of their charge as in the roles themselves. For the “Views” section, I asked three contributors to assemble a portfolio about visitation, audiences, and ceremony, respectively. The images and words presented here are personalized responses to those themes. The “Scenes” section consists of invited essays on intersections between today’s folkloristic pursuits and the worlds in which they reside—the retrievable past and the changing present. This part of the book is intended to illustrate, through examples more particular than the other sections, the effects of what folklorists do upon the things we encounter, and vice versa.

| I would like to thank the people who wrote the words and took the pictures that appear in this book for their courtesy and willingness to suspend ordinary ways of doing things. Just about everybody I asked to contribute agreed to and did. I hope that today’s readers will see something of themselves and their world reflected in this book, and that future readers will experience some of the puzzlement and delight that went into producing it.
