Routledge Revivals: Turkic Oral Epic Poetry (1992) Summary

Routledge Revivals: Turkic Oral Epic Poetry (1992): Traditions, Forms, Poetic Structure by Karl Reichl

Originally published in 1992, Turkic Oral Poetry provides an expert introduction to the oral epic traditions of the Turkic peoples of central Asia. The book seeks to remedy the problem of non-specialists' lack of access to information on the Turkic traditions, and in the process, it provides scholars in various disciplines with material for comparative investigation. The book focuses on central traditions of this region, specifically those of the Uzbeks, Kazakhs, Karakalpak's, and Kirghiz and looks at the historical and linguistic background to a survey of the earliest documents, portraits of the singers and of performance considerations of genre, story-patterns, and formulaic diction, and discussions of composition in performance, memory, rhetoric and diffusion.
