LOVE AND RITUAL GREEK FOLK POETRY

Authors

  • Maia Kukchishvili

Abstract

Greek folk poetry hasn‟t been studied well yet and translated into Georgian. We discussed love poetry, ritual songs- wedding, mourning, lullaby that play a great role in the history of any nation. Greeks are distinguished with their free fantasy skills. They were born with folk ritual songs, were brought up, loved and were loved, got married, worked, celebrated holidays and mourned. Greek folk songs are interesting not only linguistically but from literary and religious point of view. Most of these songs are made on the base of folk legends and myths forgotten in the past.
