Book excerpt: Hardly at all is it recognized to how remote a date the first collecting of Folklore goes back; how very remarkable, and, indeed, revolutionary, have been the chief Epochs of the collecting of especially mythical and historical traditions; and how clear a periodicity may be traced in the recurrence of the greater of these Epochs. How far the oldest monuments of Culture-lore, the oldest Sacred Books of Egypt and Chaldea in their primitive forms, incorporated Folklore may remain doubtful. Perhaps they had exclusively for their contents the Kosmical, and particularly the Astronomical Observations and Theories, the Historical Traditions, and the Sacred Songs and Ritualistic Observances of the Ruling White Race of these River-valleys. Unquestionably Folk-belief and Folk-custom influenced, at a very early period, both the doctrines and the rites of the Religions of which men of the Higher Race constituted themselves the systematisers and hierophants. But, so far as we as yet know, it was not till a later Age, though still as early as from the Third Millennium B.C., that Folklore was definitely collected, and, in a more or less transformed shape, presented in Culture-lore -- as in the great Chaldean Epic, of which the Flood-story is an episode (2300 B.C.), and in the earliest collections of Egyptian, Chinese, and Indian Folk-tales.

Hardly at all is it recognized to how remote a date the first collecting of Folklore goes back; how very remarkable, and, indeed, revolutionary, have been the chief Epochs of the collecting of especially mythical and historical traditions; and how clear a periodicity may be traced in the recurrence of the greater of these Epochs. How far the oldest monuments of Culture-lore, the oldest Sacred Books of Egypt and Chaldea in their primitive forms, incorporated Folklore may remain doubtful. Perhaps they had exclusively for their contents the Kosmical, and particularly the Astronomical Observations and Theories, the Historical Traditions, and the Sacred Songs and Ritualistic Observances of the Ruling White Race of these River-valleys. Unquestionably Folk-belief and Folk-custom influenced, at a very early period, both the doctrines and the rites of the Religions of which men of the Higher Race constituted themselves the systematisers and hierophants. But, so far as we as yet know, it was not till a later Age, though still as early as from the Third Millennium B.C., that Folklore was definitely collected, and, in a more or less transformed shape, presented in Culture-lore -- as in the great Chaldean Epic, of which the Flood-story is an episode (2300 B.C.), and in the earliest collections of Egyptian, Chinese, and Indian Folk-tales. It was not, however, till a still later Age -- the Age that must be dated from that great Asian-European Revolution of the Sixth Century B.C., which broke up the Ancient, and initiated New Civilizations, in which all our modern conflicts are already found in germ -- it was not till this Age that the interaction of Folklore and Culture-lore became more definitely historical, and more socially and politically important. And in both Sacred and Secular Literatures there are found, not only at this great Epoch, but thereafter at regularly recurring Epochs, characteristic manifestations of the recordation of Folklore by, and its influence on, the Cultured Classes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Folk Poesy, Vol. 2: Annotated Translations, From the Whole Cycle of Romaic Folk-Verse and Folk-Prose; Edited With Essays on the Science of Folklore, Greek Folkspeech, and the Survival of Paganism; Folk-Prose Said the eldest, 'I want you to bring me a pair of diamond earrings.' Said the next, 'I want you to bring me a diamond necklace for my neck.' Said he to the youngest daughter, 'And thou, what dost thou wish me to bring thee?' 'Let me think, papatsi, and I will tell you later.' She goes to her chamber, and says to her grandmother, 'Lalá mine, my father is going away; what shall I charge him to bring me?' 'Tell him, my child, to bring you the Melodious Napkin, and say that, if he forgets it, may his ship move neither backwards nor forwards.' The Princess went to her father and said to him, 'Papa! bring me the Melodious Napkin - if you don't bring it, may your ship move neither backwards nor forwards!' The father arose, embraced them, and kissed them, and went away. He came to the place, and fought and conquered. He bought the earrings for the eldest, the necklace for the second, and for the youngest a spray to wear in her hair. He went on board the ship to return to his kingdom, but neither forward, nor backward, would it move. 'Bre aman!' They cast off, and set the sails, but the ship remained in the same spot. There was a merchant on board, and he said to the King, 'My longlived King, perhaps someone has given you a commission, and you have forgotten it.' 'I don't remember, how do I know? I don't remember being told anything.' Said he, 'But try and recollect, my King, if someone in your house did not happen to give you a charge, and you have not fulfilled it?'
