Abstract:
Traditional folksong, quite apart from its intrinsic artistic worth, serves as an important mirror of culture as well, providing both an oral history of local traditions, and supplying social and psychological indicators. Joyner analyzes the repertory of Nancy Jones of Scotland County, North Carolina in an attempt to illuminate the role of the folksinger in sustaining tradition, the role of tradition in shaping the culture in which the individual lives, and on the interrelations between the three.
