In 1907, Mihai Pop was born in Glod, a tiny, desolate village in Maramures, today situated eight kilometres from a cement road, the nearest indication that the "modern” world is indeed accessible. It is more difficult to imagine how Pop made his way from this isolated enclave to Bucharest than it is to later discover him travelling from the Romanian capital to the other capitals of Eastern Europe. Travel is a valued tool of the anthropologist. Fortunately, pop's curiosity and insight insured that he continued to travel throughout his life, broadening his own knowledge and contributing to the understanding of the complexities of culture.

His first ethnographic experience was in Fundul Moldovii in 1928 when, as a member of D. Gusti's rural sociology group, Pop studied problems of oral literature. It was during this trip that his collaboration with the musicologist C. Brailoiu began. Many field trips ensued. Another important field research occurred in 1939; then Pop worked with the sociologist A. Golopentia in Plasa [[#D|Dambonic]], Arges, on socio-economic differentiation among villages.

In between these years, pop found time to study in Czechoslovakia where he was exposed to the Prague School of Linguistics. He was particularly influenced by R. Jacobson and P. Bogatyrev, and structural-functional analysis of folklore.

Subsequent international appointments have included: resident fellow at the Center for Advanced Studies of the Behavioral Sciences, Stanford; corresponding member of the Austrian Anthropological Society; member of the executive board of the International Association for Semiotic Studies; member of the executive board of the International Center for Semiotic and Linguistic Studies, Urbino; President of the International Society for Ethnology and Folklore. The sojourn at Stanford’s Center for Advanced Studies was significant to Pop's ongoing intellectual development. There he became familiar with American socio-cultural anthropology. Later on, due to the continued influence of Jakobson, and of Levi-Strauss, he explored French structuralism. Pop has also been a visiting professor of anthropology at the University of Marburg; at Berkeley, 1974; Michigan, 1975; the College de France, Paris, 1976; and U.C.L.A., 1984.

Pop's bibliography attests to the diversity of his pursuits. More recent additions include two books, one on Romanian oral literature (Pop si Ruxandoiu, Folclor Literar Romanesc, Bucuresti: editura didactica si pedagogica, 1976), and one on traditional customs ([[#OR|Obiceiuri tradiţionale româneşti]], Bucuresti, 1976). The latter reflects Pop's most enduring personal and professional interest spawned in the '30s by reading Bogatyrev's Rites et Croyan ces: the study of calendar and life-cycle rituals. Presently, he is interested in the "symbolic meaning of ritual structures and signs" with special emphasis on funeral customs and ancester worship in Romania, and Southeastern Europe in general. Other primary concerns are semiotics and text analysis.

Mihai Pop (1907–2000) was a Romanian ethnologist. He won the Herder Prize in 1967, and was a member of the Romanian Academy.

Biography[edit]

Taken from Gail Kligman, "Mihai Pop", 1984.

In 1907, Mihai Pop was born in Glod, a tiny, desolate village in Maramures, today situated eight kilometres from a cement road, the nearest indication that the "modern” world is indeed accessible. It is more difficult to imagine how Pop made his way from this isolated enclave to Bucharest than it is to later discover him travelling from the Romanian capital to the other capitals of Eastern Europe. Travel is a valued tool of the anthropologist. Fortunately, pop's curiosity and insight insured that he continued to travel throughout his life, broadening his own knowledge and contributing to the understanding of the complexities of culture. His first ethnographic experience was in Fundul Moldovii in 1928 when, as a member of D. Gusti's rural sociology group, Pop studied problems of oral literature. It was during this trip that his collaboration with the musicologist C. Brailoiu began. Many field trips ensued. Another important field research occurred in 1939; then Pop worked with the sociologist A. Golopentia in Plasa Dambonic, Arges, on socio-economic differentiation among villages. In between these years, pop found time to study in Czechoslovakia where he was exposed to the Prague School of Linguistics. He was particularly influenced by R. Jacobson and P. Bogatyrev, and structural-functional analysis of folklore.

The 40s were very significant for him: his doctorate was finished in 1942; in 1949, he and the ethnomusicologist Hari Brauner collaborated to establish the Institute of Ethnography and Folklore in Bucharest. Pop remained director of the Institute from 1950-74. When asked to comment, in retrospect, upon his influence on Romanian anthropology, ethnography, and folklore, Mihai Pop — with a characteristic twinkle in his eye — responded: "Nimica-ca nu ma asculta nimeni." (None — because no one listens to me.) In actuality, under his guidance, the Institute flourished, and became one of the finest ethnographic institutes on the continent. Pop initiated ambitious programs for fieldwork, procedures for the collection of data and the organization of the archives were established; to these ends, pop introduced the usage of technical aids such as film and tape. He was also responsible for the systematization of data, the development of typologies for popular literature and music (tales and ballads, in particular). Along more analytic lines. Pop encouraged new approaches to the study of social processes and meaning; he stimulated the study of folklore as a cultural act, incorporating semiotic perspectives into the interpretive process. Throughout, Pop generously shared his access to the international scholarly literature with members of the Institute, and with his students. (Pop's linguistic facilities have contributed to his breadth of knowledge; he is conversant in French, Italian, English, German, Hungarian and all of the Slavic languages.) He succeeded in attracting foreign researchers to Romania, opening doors for Romanian colleagues, as well as for us.

But being director of the Institute did not curtail his academic pursuits. In 1963, Pop became a Professor at the University of Bucharest. He was also an editor of Revista de Etnografie si Folclor until 1980. Subsequent international appointments have included: resident fellow at the Center for Advanced Studies of the Behavioral Sciences, Stanford; corresponding member of the Austrian Anthropological Society; member of the executive board of the International Association for Semiotic Studies; member of the executive board of the International Center for Semiotic and Linguistic Studies, Urbino; President of the International Society for Ethnology and Folklore. The sojourn at Stanford’s Center for Advanced Studies was significant to Pop's ongoing intellectual development. There he became familiar with American socio-cultural anthropology. Later on, due to the continued influence of Jakobson, and of Levi-Strauss, he explored French structuralism. Pop has also been a visiting professor of anthropology at the University of Marburg; at Berkeley, 1974; Michigan, 1975; the College de France, Paris, 1976; and U.C.L.A., 1984.

Pop's bibliography attests to the diversity of his pursuits. More recent additions include two books, one on Romanian oral literature (Pop si Ruxandoiu, Folclor Literar Romanesc, Bucuresti: Editura didactica si pedagogica, 1976), and one on traditional customs (Obiceiuri tradiţionale româneşti, Bucuresti, 1976). The latter reflects Pop's most enduring personal and professional interest spawned in the '30s by reading Bogatyrev's Rites et Croyan ces: the study of calendar and life-cycle rituals. Presently, he is interested in the "symbolic meaning of ritual structures and signs" with special emphasis on funeral customs and ancester worship in Romania, and Southeastern Europe in general. Other primary concerns are semiotics and text analysis.
