“occupation”
The following are the topics for the four writing assignments for the semester. Each should be
about 2-3 pages, with emphasis on detailed description and folkloristic reflection. Each
assignment coincides with one of the topics: the readings for these respective sections can be
used as rough guides and you should reference them explicl”lir. Additional library work is not
required but always encouraged. Each is u,orth 1 5% of 1,our finai grade. These will be done
through the online text function of Moodle.
(Remember that 2-3 pages is the general idea, but write till you’re done!)
Occupotionol Folklil
With respect to an “occupation” you have had (broadly understood: it can include non-paid
work, participation in crafting; even being a student), describe an (informal) activity that you
and fellow workers participate in that reaffirms your shared identity. What kind of activity is it?
What values and skills are stressed? How does this activity negotiate status within the group?
How does this group contrast itself with others? What conclusions can you draw about this
specific occupational group from this analysis?
