Pour montrer comment s'articulent les mécanismes de l'interprétation dans la chanson populaire, nous nous sommes inspirée [inspirés] de travaux de sociologues qui se sont penchés sur la chanson depuis une vingtaine d'années (Authelain, Buxton, Calvet, Giroux, Hennion, Frith, Middleton) ou sur le marché des biens symboliques (Bourdieu), ainsi que de la sémiologie musicale de Jean-Jacques Nattiez. Comme lui, nous avons identifié un processus poïétique, un niveau neutre et un processus esthésique dans la pratique de la chanson, processus qui se dédoublent dans la chanson populaire selon le point d'ancrage de l'analyse: la partition (la trace, constituant un premier"niveau neutre") puis la chanson interprétée (ou résultat musical, qui constitue un second"niveau neutre").

Between 1938 and 1941, Joseph-Thomas LeBlanc (1899-1943), a journalist working with La Voix d'Évangéline, published 87 chronicles on songs gathered from oral tradition.

LeBlanc's correspondence with Marius Barbeau and Luc Lacourcière helped him to organize his chronicle and edit the song texts for print. This article uses the example of La complainte de saint Alexis to illustrate the work of this little known pioneer folklorist.

AbstractThis article proposes an examination of the development of the collection of traditional folklore events in fieldwork. For over ten years now, the author has investigated the former region of le Détroit, which encompasses the present-day Windsor area, in the extreme southwest of Ontario. Given that no researcher to date has examined the oral tradition of this French-speaking community, the oldest in Ontario, the author hoped first to follow the example of pioneers in the field by collecting the remnants of French folk songs “before everything disappeared”. Through considering the historical conditions under which the region was populated and by comparing the results of a linguistic study in the same field, the collection of folk songs has become much more than an end in itself. The article therefore examines the role of folk song as a symbol of cultural identity.
