Formulaic phraseology presents the epitome of words worn and weathered by trial and the tests of time. Scholarship on weathered words is exceptionally diverse and interdisciplinary. This volume focuses on verbal art, which makes Oral-Formulaic Theory (OFT) a major point of reference. Yet weathered words are but a part of OFT, and OFT is only a part of scholarship on weathered words.Each of the eighteen essays gathered here brings particular aspects of formulaic language into focus. No volume on such a diverse topic can be all-encompassing, but the essays highlight aspects of the phenomenon that may be eclipsed elsewhere: they diverge not only in style, but sometimes even in how they choose to define “formula.” As such, they offer overlapping frames that complement one another both in their convergences and their contrasts. While they view formulaicity from multifarious angles, they unite in a Picasso of perspectives on which the reader can reflect and draw insight.

HOBOS GOING SOBO IN THEIR OBOZ is the true story of Faith and FROG (HOBOS) as they journey south (SOBO) each wearing a pair of OBOZ (hiking boots) on a long section hike of the Appalachian Trail. On April 7, 2021 they took their first steps in Groseclose, Virginia with plans to finish at Springer Mountain/Amicalola Falls State Park in Georgia. Can they really hike those 545 miles? Can they find enough water sources and where to camp at night? Did they plan out their mail drops of food adequately? How will they be accepted by the younger hikers along the trail? Will there be experiences that were not planned on or accounted for? Is this a realistic goal and adventure for their age? You will hear it all – the good, the bad, and the ugly!This is their story of adventure: the beautiful sunny days and the rain drenched days. The fantastic people that they met along the way, the plans that worked and the plans that needed to be changed. But most importantly, the time spent in GOD’s incredible creation and the many GOD moments along the way. Don’t ever stop dreaming. GOD has an adventure for you too!
