Orality in the cultural area of Bosnia and Herzegovina by Ćurguz Jelena

“…The study demonstrates that there are numerous traces of the primary orality in the celebration of family and religious holidays (such as Slava), as well as various folk customs (local celebrations, feasts and fairs, folk competitions, masquerades, carolers, weddings and funerals), and in everyday socializing (e.g. in cafes and among neighbors). Most customs are permeated with verbal and non-verbal ritual communication - established greetings and congratulations, toasts, jokes, songs, dances, processions, shared meals, gift-giving and decorations, and sometimes piercing sounds. …”
