Download or read book A Dictionary of English Folklore written by Jacqueline Simpson and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2000 with total page 997 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are there any legends about cats? Is Cinderella an English story? What is (or was) a Mumming Play? The subject of folklore covers an extremely wide field, with connections to virtually every aspect of life. It ranges from the bizarre to the seemingly mundane. Similarly, folklore is as much afeature of the modern technological age as the ancient world, of every part of the country, both urban and rural, and of every age group and occupation. Containing 2,000 entries, from dragons to Mother Goose, May Day to Michaelmas, this new reference work is an absorbing and entertaining guide to English folklore. Aimed at a broad general readership, the dictionary provides an authoritative reference source on such legendary characters as the Babesin the Wood, Jack the Giant Killer, and Robin Hood, and gives entertaining and informative explanations of a wide range of subjects in folklore, from nosebleeds and wishbones to cats and hot cross buns.

Download or read book Nebraska Folklore written by Louise Pound and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1989-01-01 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A distinguished scholar and writer who, in the words of H. L. Mencken, "put the study of American English on its legs," Louise Pound was always intensely interested in the folklore of her home state. Nebraska Folklore, first published in 1959, the year after herødeath, collects her best work in that rich vein. Included are cave legends, snake superstitions, weather lore, tales of strong men who rival Paul Bunyan, stories of Indian lovers' leaps, hoaxes of a petrified man and a land-locked sea monster, and the legends of Weeping Water and Lincoln Salt Basin. A section on old Nebraska folk customs provides a wealth of information about holiday observances, literary and debating societies, political rallies, spelling contests, and various social traditions. Going beyond Nebraska, the book ends with studies of the origins of American cowboy and folk songs and of the use of dialect in folklore. Its wit and honesty will appeal to readers everywhere.
