"Národopisná revue" 3/98 deals with questions of folklorism. Different views are presented by Richard Jeřábek (The Century of Folklorism; Two Examples of the Use of Folklorism in the Beginning of the 20th Century), Eva Krekovičová (Folklore, Politics and Massmedia; An Example from Slovakia), Daniela Stavělová (Contemporary Folk Dance Tradition; On Questions of its Ecology), Hana Hlôšková (Scenic Folk Narrators in the Environment of the Mass Culture), Irena Přibylová (Czech Music in Texas; At Home, or Abroad?), and Alena Dunajová (Painted Vine Cellar). The articles are followed by an entry by Věra Kovářů (Preserve Areas and Zones in the Villiges of South Moravia), and the third part of a study by Jan Trojan (Song as a Living Form; On Records of the Melody and the String Band Play of the Songs of Strážnice by Vladimír Úlehla).

The Tradition Transformation column reminds of the personality of Vladimír Úlehla (born 1888) in his attitute towards the folklore movement; other issues of the column deal with the history of the folklore ensemble Carnica from East Slovakia, and the phenomenon of the children s folk music bands in the Czech Republic. The Chronicle of the Society deals with the anniversary of Vilma Volková from the Valachia (born 1903), the deaths of the writer Jindřich Uher (1932-1998) and the ethnography worker Jiřina Králová (1911-1998); the musicologist Karl Vetterl is reminded as well. The festival and exhibition news and book reviews are followed by the Lost and Found column. This time, it brings an article by Richard Jeřábek (Dichtung und Wahrheit), which deals critically with the manipulation of the description of customs and the custom props in the work by Antonín Václavík The Annual Customs and the Folk Art (1959).
