Theoretical Approach to the Study of an Individual Talent in the Perspective of Contemporary Folkloric Study

Abstract

This article discusses the theoretical approach to studying an individual's talent from the point of view of a contemporary folklore study. People tend to believe that the term "folklore" can only relate to forms verbally transmitted from one generation to the next and that it connects with farmers and the illiterate in society who value literacy. These concepts have been so firmly embedded in people's conceptions of folklore over time that they have merged to form an ingrained tradition that is quite resistant to change. This essay demonstrates how a rudimentary or inadequate understanding of folklore contributed to the development of the custom. In addition, this research aims to clarify the meaning of the term "folklore" and its position in the contemporary world. This article also focuses on the folkloric method of engaging the individual in various academic subjects, such as those we can run into in the field of folklore. The development and improvement of theoretical frameworks for the study of individualistic invention is the primary objective of this research. The researchers of this study have decided to focus on the Bengali mystic and poet Fakir Lalon Shah as an example of an individual talent worthy of examination from the point of view of a contemporary folklore study in the world we live in today. This paper introduces the academic study of folklore and focuses on the theoretical approach to analyzing an individual's talents from the point of view of contemporary folkloric research.
