Kama-taguste udmurtide kevadise suure päeva (bõddzh’õnal) kombetalituse laulufolkloor
The article is dedicated to the analysis of musical motifs performed by Eastern Udmurts within the framework of the spring ritual complex Bydzhynnal (The Great Day).

“Не Harms, Enriches, Appeases…”
Исследование посвящено рассмотрению малоизученного персонажа удмуртской мифологии — бучыра, получившего в народной терминологии различные локальные варианты названия. Демонологический персонаж тюркского происхождения в некоторых локальных традициях имеет однозначно положительную оценку, в других — характеризуется амбивалентно: в одном случае обогащает, помогает и/или сексуально удовлетворяет своего хозяина, в другом — привносит беспокойство, сове…

The Song Tradition Ofthesiberian Udmurts in Historical Dynamics (Based on Expedition Materials of 1974, 2001, 2003, 2006)
В статье рассматривается локальная музыкально-песенная традиция удмуртов Чаинского района Томской области, относящихся к сибирской группе удмуртов. Преобладающее большинство переселенцев в эти места составили выходцы из Шарканского района Удмуртской Республики. Оказавшись в Сибири в начале XX столетия, удмурты долгое время сохраняли свою самобытность в иноэтничном окружении. Но к началу XXI века их песенная традиция начала угасать под влиянием ра…
Song folklore of the resettlement tradition of the Udmurts of the Krasnoyarsk region
This paper analyzes the musical and song resettlement tradition of the Krasnoyarsk Udmurts and compares it with the indigenous tradition of the Udmurts living in the Igrinsky and Alnashsky districts of the Udmurt Republic. The resettlement of the Udmurts to Siberia pro-ceeded in two ways: voluntarily – during the Stolypin agrarian reform (1910–1912) and forci-bly – during dekulakization (the 1930s). Krasnoyarsk Krai thus became a second homeland …

Uni ja unenäod udmurdi kultuuris
In Udmurt culture sleep (iz’on, kölon, um) as well as dreams (vöt, uyvöt) have occupied a significant place. According to ordinary understandings, dreams are not subjected to this world’s rules of time and space: in a dream, places and spaces may suddenly change, and time moves quickly, or it does not move at all; it has stopped. Sleep and dreams are not thoroughly explained phenomena, and as such, they play a significant role in the communicatio…

Migrant and Autochthonous Traditions within Udmurt Folksong (on the Example of the Siberian Udmurt)
