The sound of words, the voice of sounds <p>A farmer's daily life was tightly interwoven with that of his oxen. Mutual communication was indispensable to a harmonious working companionship and in it all the senses played their role: the taste, the smell, the touch and the sense of hearing. The paper focuses on the latter, dealing with the sound of words – the intangible tool of human voice – calling the oxen by their names, giving commands and singing songs; it also deals with two other sounds applied in communicating with oxen – the voice of human whistling and the sound of cracking of a whip. 0354-0316_19_smerdel_zvok.pdf |

They were further used in many customs and to heal people and animals. After the second World War, the belief in the magic power of Palm Sunday bundles started to decline, but they acquired new functions in the late 20th century.</p> 0354-0316_19_zidov_uporaba.pdf |
