Summary: | Within the theoretical and methodological framework based on the concept of
the ideology of tradition, I analyze a wide and complex repertoire of
attitudes toward female gusle players. Aside from the techniques of
representation demonstrated in scientific discourses, I examine the status of
female gusle players by assessing the material obtained during several years
of field researches (the “male” perspective), and I also refer to the public
(media) discourse, acknowledging the characteristics of media and popular
culture. The “researcher’s voice” is also interpreted as part of a discourse
on the ideology of tradition. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije,
