Main purpose of the text is to present specifics of development of contemporary Bulgarian ethnology which are potentially not well known in the Czech Republic. The main specific of this development is main role of folkloristics in establishment of this field since 1989; ethnography played only secondary role in this process, resulting in state of affairs different from other nations of South- Eastern Europe. Other specifics of post-1989 development of Bulgarian ethnology are also presented resulting in the conclusion that current Bulgarian ethnology now exists as academic field parallel to sociocultural anthropology.

The overview study focuses on a brief outline of the history and disciplinary identity of North American folklore studies (folkloristics, folklore) with an emphasis on the field of verbal culture. Major research themes, research schools, and personalities are presented, as well as the history of the institutionalization of the field at the U.S. universities after World War II After a brief introduction to the origins, when North American folklore studies did not differ significantly from British and Continental scholarship, its development during interwar period and especially in the 1960s and 1970s, when its emancipation took place, mainly because of unique American emphasis on study of folklore performance, is described. Critical overview text thus presents basic contours of this specific academic field, practiced mainly in the U.S.A and Canada, which in many aspects represents a unique scientific discipline with close ties to international folklore studies, European ethnology, and anthropological fields in general.
