An unprecedented number of folklorists are addressing issues of
class, race, gender, and sexuality in academic and public spaces in
the US, raising the question: How can folklorists contribute to
these contemporary political affairs? Since the nature of
folkloristics transcends binaries, can it help others develop
critical personal narratives? Advancing Folkloristics covers topics
such as queer, feminist, and postcolonial scholarship in
folkloristics. Contributors investigate how to apply folkloristic
approaches in nonfolklore classrooms, how to maintain a folklorist
identity without a "folklorist" job title, and how to use
folkloristic knowledge to interact with others outside of the
discipline. The chapters, which range from theoretical
reorientations to personal experiences of folklore work, all
demonstrate the kinds of work folklorists are well-suited to and
promote the areas in which folkloristics is poised to expand and
excel. Advancing Folkloristics presents a clear picture of folklore
studies today and articulates how it must adapt in the future.
