Book Synopsis Folk-Lore Journal, 1885, Vol. 3 (Classic Reprint) by : Great Britain Folklore Society
Download or read book Folk-Lore Journal, 1885, Vol. 3 (Classic Reprint) written by Great Britain Folklore Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-03 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Folk-Lore Journal, 1885, Vol. 3 The errors in the definition and conception of folk-lore which we have pointed out have for the most part permeated very deeply among those who take up the study. Mr. Lang has on more than one occasion taken pains to bring back the aims and objects of the students of folk-lore to their legitimate basis and function. In the second volume of the folk-lore Record he has given a sort of summary of his views; but by far the best contribution to this subject is the chapter on The Methods of folk-lore in his recently published Custom and Myth, where, although he does not distinctly tell us what his definition of folk-lore really is, and he hesitates to call it a science, he explains and amplifies many of his previous studies. But admirable as these explanations of Mr. Lang's really are, it does not appear to me that they go quite far enough. If it is true that folk - lore is the study of survivals, and that possibly there is no stage of human experience, however early and incomplete, from which something in our institutions does not still survive, it must follow that the study of folk-lore becomes, not the mere amusement of the antiquary, not the craze of an observer of all that is curious and extraordinary, but a science. And then again, if folk-lore is a science, and the science of survivals withal, there is something to be said about its place in the list of sciences, about its relation to other sciences; and, above all, about the chapter it should contribute to the great book of human knowledge. For this to be properly understood we must first give a rapid survey of what is now actually included under the title of folk-lore; and then, if possible, ascertain the scientific reason why folk-lore may properly be said to deal with all these subjects. Sir George Cox uses it curiously, Introduction to Mythology and Folk Lore, p. 7. In the folk-lore Journal (vol. Ii. P. 312) Mr. Nutt has given a very good summary of the subjects included under the general term folk-lore, but, in classifying these subjects, he does not utilise the terms usually recognised and adopted, and his classification does not by itself indicate the methods of studying folk-lore. Mr. Hartland's classification (ii. 343) is, I venture to think, the better. But still I do not think we should go beyond the radical groups into which the subjects included in folk-lore naturally divide themselves. Simplicity is much needed. Folk-practice and folk-wont are, after all, arbitrary divisions, and few students will, I think, limit their studies by this classification. Many, however, do, and will limit their studies to the natural grouping of the subjects, and I can see no reason why they should not as long as they recognise these parts as belonging to a larger whole. I would therefore venture to suggest the following division into four radical groups, each of which is subdivided into minor groups, as in the accompanying table.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Folk-Lore Record, Vol. 2 I have been asked to contribute a preface to the folk-lore Record, and regret that want of time for due preparation pre vents me from writing anything at all complete or adequate about the objects of the Society. Compelled to be brief, I must select one or two points on which I have already written with, perhaps, damnable iteration. The readers of the Record must pardon me if, like the narrators of the fairy stories we collect and study, I tell a twice-told tale.

Download or read book The Seasons written by Nick Groom and published by Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2014-06-01 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For millennia, the passing seasons and their rhythms have marked our progress through the year. But what do they mean to us now that we lead increasingly atomized and urban lives and our weather becomes ever more unpredictable or extreme? Will it matter if we no longer hear, even notice, the first cuckoo call of spring or rejoice in the mellow fruits of harvest festival? How much will we lose if we can no longer find either refuge or reassurance in the greater natural—and meteorological—scheme of things? Nick Groom's splendidly rich and encyclopedic book is an unabashed celebration of the English seasons and the trove of strange folklore and often stranger fact they have accumulated over the centuries. Each season and its particular history are given their full due, and these chapters are interwoven with others on the calendar and how the year and months have come to be measured, on important dates and festivals such as Easter, May Day and, of course, Christmas, on that defining first cuckoo call, on national attitudes to weather, our seasonal relationship with the land and horticulture and much more. The author expresses the hope that his book will not prove an elegy: only time will tell.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Folk-Lorist, 1892: Journal of the Chicago Folk-Lore Society This Society was formed in December, 1891, for the pur pose Oi collecting, preserving, studying and publishing traditional literature, especially, that of this country, west Of the Alleghenies. Its progress so far has been encouraging, and it is now established on a footing that insures its useful ness. This is the second regular publication of the Society, not including the pamphlet containing the by-laws. The first was the Manual prepared for the Society by its Secretary. The present number is, it is hoped, but the precursor Of a reg ular publication, which may be a useful one to folk-lorists and to science in general. The Society hopes for and invites the cooperation of other folk-lore Societies, and of all those interested in folk-lore. There is abundant traditional lore to be gathered in this Western country, and much that is fast disappearing. This Society encourages the collection of such material, important to the study Of the history Of mankind, and in its bearings upon the many problems of life. We have now correspondents in South America, in Mexico, in Europe, and in Asia, and it should be the duty of every member to secure the cooperation of all those whom inclination leads to the study of folk-lore, and who are so situated as to gather material from other parts of the world. The Secretary will promptly respond to all communications on the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
