The article addresses computational approaches to semantic analysis and extraction of meaningful structures from the contents. These methods are becoming more relevant and often necessary, especially in the analysis of large digital collections where manual classification of materials is not possible. Moreover, computational semantic analysis offers insight into the broader conceptual structure of the contents; selection of desired parameters; and discovery of a general semantic structure (e.g. thematic patterns) and context. The materials analyzed for this purpose contain a corpus of Slovene folk songs.

In the quest for ethnic identification, ballads played an exceptionally important role, which was also based on their aesthetic evaluation. Transcriptions of songs from the first half of the nineteenth century focused on the lyrics, and so the assessment of the creators of ballads and their bearers was shaped based on the situation when these songs were still only preserved in the countryside. This perspective was in line with the concept of the rural population as the creators of folk tradition. However, taking into account social circumstances, evidence regarding the existence of broadsides, and lyrical and melodic characteristics, it is clear that certain ballads were to a large extent created by professionals and also based on printed material. When they were being created, these ballads were also widespread among young people as popular songs and also in the urban environment, which points to the importance of towns in this tradition not only in the present, but also in the past.

In addition, it also seeks to provide an answer to the question of how this type of dance event influences the life of an individual and the entire community.
