Popis: | We present the text of the ribald song sung during the Skyrocket Festival of Northeast Thailand, and discuss the implications of the text as it relates to overt and covert functions of this festival. Contrary to Tambiah and other writers, we conclude that the festival is a complex, multifunctional one in which the crudity of the song and other related behaviour plays a central part. |
