Summary/Abstract: The pieces in this volume are real experiments, since they attempt to interpret a scientific work or book, to outline the work or career of a colleague, to formulate a scientific and/or public problem in a sharp but preferably not offensive way, and yes, they can also be a condensation attempt to outline and summarize one's own scientific ars poetica. The genres of this condensation attempt are reviews, critiques, peer reviews, discussion papers, newspaper columns, diary entries, study pieces, book reviews of study value, tributes and obituaries, in short, this volume is truly a collection of gentlemanly mischief. What binds them together, apart from the author himself, is the broad framework of ethnography, folklore and cultural history, European ethnology and museology, dialectology and religious ethnography, and the vast virtual professional and friendly circle of their practitioners.
