Aims & Scope

Folklorica (ISSN 1920-0234, eISSN 1920-0242) is a publication of the Slavic, East European, and Eurasian Folklore Association (SEEFA), a scholarly, non-profit organization devoted to the exchange of knowledge among scholars interested in Slavic, East European, and Eurasian folklore.

The journal publishes articles, surveys, reviews, notices of conferences or expeditions, and announcements from scholars in any field relevant to Slavic, East European, and Eurasian folklore, including anthropology, ethnic studies, history, literature, and musicology.

Folklorica is issued annually.

The contents of the journal reflect a wide range of topics related to Slavic, East European, and Eurasian folklore.

Folklore includes the study of the creative and expressive dimensions of human experiences and worldviews.

This includes oral genres, customary behavior, material culture, and belief.

Folklore pays particular attention to related systems of communication and transmission in socio-cultural contexts.

As technology constantly reshapes communication, the field of folklore studies continues to expand its methodologies and themes.

While some folklorists work with published sources and archival documents, others focus on face-to-face interactions via the ethnography of everyday life, still others explore new trajectories in the virtual world.

Articles in the journal present significant research findings or theoretical analyses.

Surveys are narrower in scope and focus on a single context or issue.
