The Journey of the Holy Family and Hana Bočková, or How the Song about the Flight into Egypt Entered a Long Literary and Oral Tradition
Original language description
This case study presents an critical edition and an analysis of a Czech broadside ballad depicting the flight of the Holy Family into Egypt. The song has been preserved in both literary and oral traditions over two centuries. It draws upon apocryphal and other non-canonical sources and is part of anonymous, likely catechetical Catholic song production disseminated on the fringes of the media space. The study employs an interdisciplinary approach, examining the subject from linguistic, literary-historical, ethnological, and ethnomusicological perspectives. It illustrates differences in the transmission of the textual and musical components of broadside ballads.
