Abstract:
This paper deals with a description of the Manobo all-night storytelling
complex, the Manobo raconteur’s generic folk aim of ‘taking his listeners to the
very place where his story is taking place’ and then ‘keeping them focused on his
story’s development as it unfolds.’ Finally, the paper deals with a description of
the wealth of linguistic devices employed by the Manobo raconteur for enabling
him to accomplish his goal, and for involving his audience as Manobo society’s
folk jurors in the preservation of their culture.
