It is part of the Historical Archive, of which it is one collection, although the Department of Catalan Philology and General Linguistics is responsible for its academic supervision. At this stage, it mainly comprises a subcollection of course work produced by students on folklore and popular oral literature. This article sets out the theoretical and methodological bases, the background to the project and the purposes for which it was set up. It also discusses the tools for managing the archive, and the collection, subcollections, series and subseries of which it is made up.

Part of this lack of knowledge is probably due to his own life's events. Among his many and varied intellectual interests was also folklore, to which he devoted himself in four ways: poetic creation, translation, collection and theorisation, and dissemination.

Es tracta d'un "glosat narratiu en que es retreuen els fets mes destacats del poble ocorreguts durant l'any anterior". Aquest argument es canta a Arta el dia de Sant Antoni Abat. L'autor repassa la historia de l'argument de 1783 a 1997, i n'estudia el text, els argumentaires, la composicio, la transimissio, la recepcio, la conservacio, els origens i les funcions.

This motif and some others related to it appear not only in folk songs, jokes, rumours or urban legends, but also in films and advertisements.

Caplletra, 2023

The characterisation of the female characters in these texts is resolved in two ways: on the one hand, they appear as victims of a male aggressor and, on the other, they play the role of aggressors, promiscuous or liberated women who govern their own destiny. In both cases, however, the resolution of the conflict in the story reveals the subordination of the female
main characters to the patriarchal framework and the hegemonic male pornographic imaginary.

Història de la literatura popular catalana, 2018

Tanmateix, sovint no som prou conscients de la importància que té ni de l’espai que ocupa en les nostres vides. El present llibre pren com a objecte d’estudi aquesta branca del folklore, que es coneix també amb les denominacions de literatura tradicional, literatura oral, literatura oral popular i etnopoètica, depenent de la tradició seguida al llarg de la història d’aquests estudis. Més concretament, el llibre se centra en l’estudi de la història de la literatura popular catalana i té per objectiu explicar la importància que ha tingut en el passat i encara té avui dia aquesta branca del saber en tots els territoris de parla catalana: Catalunya, les Illes Balears, el País Valencià, el Carxe, la Franja d’Aragó, Andorra, la Catalunya del Nord i l’Alguer. El llibre és una obra col·lectiva en la qual hi han participat setze investigadors de diverses universitats i centres de recerca. En el marc d’aquesta col·laboració, s’han estudiat els autors, les obres, les institucions i els projectes que han contribuït de manera decisiva al desenvolupament de la literatura popular en cadascun d’aquests territoris des dels inicis del sorgiment del folklore com a ciència, a mitjans del segle XIX, fins a l’actualitat.
