Mirko Ramovš’s Path in Ethnochoreology

V članku je analizirana raziskovalna dejavnost Mirka Ramovša, ki je v zadnjih treh desetletjih prejšnjega stoletja odločilno zaznamoval etnokoreološke raziskave v Sloveniji, saj je bil kot raziskovalec ljudskega plesa med letoma 1966 in 2003 zaposlen v Glasbenonarodopisnem inštitutu ZRC SAZU. Članek ovrednoti njegova raziskovalna prizadevanja, usmeritve in spoznanja in poudari tri področja njegovega delovanja: zbiranje gradiva in ustvarjanje zbirke zapisov ljudskih plesov, preučevanje gradiva in objava študij ter aplikativnost njegovih etnokoreoloških raziskav. *** This article analyzes the research activity of Mirko Ramovš, who had a decisive impact on ethnochoreology research in Slovenia in the last three decades of the twentieth century as a folkdance researcher employed from 1966 to 2006 at the ZRC SAZU Institute of Ethnomusicology. This article evaluates his research efforts, orientations, and findings, and it emphasizes three areas of his work: collecting material and creating collections of folkdance notations, studying the material and publishing his research, and the application of his ethnochoreology studies.
