KÜLTÜREL VE SOSYAL DAVRANIŞLARIN ANLAM VE İŞLEV DÜNYASINA BİR YOLCULUK: DAVRANIŞ FOLKLORU
A JOURNEY TOWARDS THE SEMANTIC AND FUNCTIONAL REALM OF THE CULTURAL AND SOCIAL BEHAVIORS: BEHAVIORAL FOLKLORE

Summary/Abstract: From the first quarter of the 20th century onwards, in Western Europe and North America folklore studies, the new folkloric production, transference environments and forms created by the changing social and cultural structures of societies began to be examined. Current research areas and topics for folklore have emerged. The diversity of topics and perspectives that started earlier in the fields of cultural or social anthropology has started to be seen as autonomous titles in folklore studies. This situation has started to attract attention in Turkish folklore studies since the early 2000s, but due to reasons such as insufficient awareness of the need for interdisciplinary studies, not being able to add new research methods and techniques that have been used for a long time, women's folklore, occupational folklore, family folklore, group folklore, children's folklore, the tendency to research titled and content such as body folklore/bodylore has only increased in the last few years. In Turkish folklore studies, the concept of "body folklore" or direct "bodylore" has come to the fore with a limited number of original academic studies as well as translations from some researchers such as Katharine Young. The "body" that mediates the display of behavior has become the main argument in naming folklore studies on cultural behavior.
