Summary/Abstract: The article reviews the problem about the folklore elements in Hadjiiski’s work and aims at interpreting them with ethno-sociological apparatus. The object of the empirical study – Hadjiiski – has often been used as an object by other research interests but he has never been analyzed through the folklore perspective and with the methods of ethno-sociology. The attention is paid to specifi c texts proposing us signifi cant contribution to folklore elements and the method used by the author. The essence of the research is a practical work on the interpretation of separate folklore texts by Hadjiiski, using ethno-sociological methods. The abstract theoretical model includes problems of body, biography, normalization (Bourdieu, Foucault, Nikolova). They are performed in practice (using folklore examples from Hadjiiski) and the effi ciency of the chosen methods is proved. There is one possible methodological scheme offered by ethno-sociology that works at the both levels of analytical work (text and metatext).
