Year: 2017
Type: article
Abstract: Članek obravnava terminologijo in različne konceptualizacije verovanja, kakor se kažejo v zgodovini evropske in ameriške folkloristike. Predstavlja pregled konceptualizacij verovanja: od verovanja kot posamične entitete (motiva) in obenem posebnega folklornega žanra; verovanja kot kognitivne realnosti, ki se izraža v različnih žanrih folklore; do verovanja kot procesa, dejanja. Na koncu obravnava še terminologijo v sodobni slovenski folkloristiki. *** The paper discusses the terminology and the conceptualisations of belief in the history of European and American folkloristics. It examines the conceptualisation of beliefs as entities and folklore genre; as a cognitive reality, underlying various folklore genres; and a process, an act of believing. Finally, it reviews terminology in contemporary Slovenian folklore studies on belief and proposes the terminology in the Slovenian language.
