The book contains the most interesting and accomplished bylinas and songs from the collection of K. Danilov, a remarkable narrator who lived in the Urals in the XVIII century. Kirsha provides an original retelling of paradigmatic plots of bylinas, and the spirit of his songs is very different: serious or glib and foolish, lyric or openly obscene. The edition is supplied with vocabulary and comments.
