Abstract (Rezumat)
Irozi Romanian Traditional Custom
Irozii is a small biblical drama, “folklorised” by the priests and the village wise men using elements which are derived from the features of carols. This custom was assimilated in Romanian traditional identity. Among all the representations of folk dramas only Irozii custom has vernacularized becoming a particular Christmas custom. The debatable issue of popular theatre is illustrated at the level of folklore category classification, as folk dramas are included into the class “other species of folklore”.The anthropological perspective of culture approached by V. Adãscãlitei considers that the phenomenon of folk theatre belongs to the ritual genre. The multifunctionality of folkloric facts/events is stated as well as the gregarious aspect of their composition. The obvious scriptural feature of folk theater is dominated by its oral feature typical to folk culture because it’s a representation that lasts only while the act of performing lasts which leads to unique variants.
Obiceiul Irozilor este o dramã biblicã „folclorizatã” de cãtre preotii si „micii cãrturari” ai satului, prin intermediul elementelor caracteristice colindelor, ce a fost asimilatã de mentalul traditional românesc. Dintre toate reprezentãrile dramatice folclorice (Mironositele, Suzana, Lãzãrelul, etc.), doar Irozii s-a autohtonizat, reprezentând un obicei specific Crãciunului. Situatia problematicã a teatrului popular este ilustratã la nivelul clasificãrii categoriilor folclorice, acesta fiind înglobat în clasa „alte specii ale foclorului”. Perspectiva antropologicã asupra culturii, abordatã de V. Adãscãlitei, încadreazã fenomenul teatrului focloric în genul ritual. Se constatã plurifunctionalitatea faptului folcloric si aspectul gregar al compozitiei. Caracterul evident scriptural al teatrului folcloric este dominat de cel oral, tipic culturii populare, deoarece este o reprezentatie numai în momentul executãrii sale. De aici, rezultã autenticitatea sa.
