Summary/Abstract: Folk creation is increasingly requested by contemporary culture and knowledge as the source of a value system of striking originality and authenticity meant to create a more comprehensive opening to mankind and the world. Moreover, by virtue of its traditions, folk culture constitutes a permanent source for high culture or other cultural value systems. Faced with currents of thought such as existentialism, psychoanalysis etc., which put to debate concepts and notions dissolving the powers of the ego, destroying them, based on a principle according to which the world in general and the individual world are fatally condemned, through its traditions, folk culture constitutes a permanent life source, with wide, programmatic openings towards mankind and the world. Our work seeks to approach folk culture from the perspective of the triad of the “age of human being, ” birth, marriage and death.
