Book Description:
From the Back Cover:
Did you know that Shakespeare's famous tragedy Hamlet first circulated as an oral legend during the Middle Ages? Or that J.R.R. Tolkien borrowed character types from European oral narratives to develop his heroic quest trilogy The Lord of the RingS? Encyclopedia of Folklore and Literature describes how these and other oral traditions became the inspiration for the world's most famous literature.
Encyclopedia of Folklore and Literature provides an inclusive survey of the authors, works, characters, themes, concepts, and scholarly methods of study associated with folklore. This extensive reference work enables readers to trace from a cross-cultural perspective the influence of folklore on classic and contemporary literature and performance art. A comprehensive index and a list of entries by category allow readers to access information about a particular regional or ethnic literature, a favorite author, or an important literary movement. Entries are cross-referenced, and each includes a selected bibliography that serves as a guide to more in-depth research.
