The Present State of the Epic Tradition Among the Shor

Abstract

The article discusses theoretical problems of distinguishing cultural traditions from traditions in culture. Drawing on his long-term observations of the epic traditions of the Shor, a Turkic people in the south of Western Siberia, the author analyzes the phenomenon of "the last" in culture and concepts concerning the transmission of tradition from generation to generation.
