The work aims to preserve the nearly extinct native expressions of the Székely people, highlighting the richness of their cultural heritage amidst the influences of modernization and other ethnicities. Mailand's collection serves as a critical artifact reflecting the folk spirit and poetic expression of the Székely community. The opening of this volume provides an introduction to the motivations behind the collection, detailing how the Kisfaludy Society commissioned Mailand to gather folk songs and traditions from the Székely population to prevent their disappearance. It reveals Mailand’s concerns about outside influences, particularly from the Romanian culture, which has gradually seeped into Székely traditions. He begins his fieldwork passionately, emphasizing the importance of capturing the pure essence of Székely folklore before it fades due to external pressures. Amidst his findings, he documents real-life accounts, expressions, and details of the people he encounters during his collection efforts. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
