Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shropshire Folk-Lore: A Sheaf of Gleanings As every word of the book in its present state comes from the Editor's own brain (except when otherwise specified), the original author must not be held responsible for omissions or insertions, for the use of extraneous matter to illustrate Shropshire superstition, nor for the imperfections of the literary style. On some of these points I received much good advice from the author of folk-lore of the Northern Counties; but as he has not seen any of the finished ms. Or proofs before publication, he is not account able for the poor use I fear I may have made of his kind hints.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ... fight, after which misdemeanour, Fulk was constrained to carry his sword over to Llewellyn of Wales, who was ready enough to befriend a disaffected March-man. But King John and his men came in force against Llewellyn, and though for a short time Fulk was restored to Whittington, the prince presently made peace with the king of England, and Fulk judged it expedient to go beyond seas, where he 'assayed marvels' enough to fill a volume; till at last he returned to England, and fell upon the king as he was hunting in the New Forest, carried him captive on board ship, and forced him to restore his lands and reverse his outlawry. So Fulk returned to Whittington in peace, and had the king's peace all the days of his life, and was buried at last in the New Abbey at Alberbury by Severn side, which he had founded. All this and much more both of fact and fiction is told in the Norman-French romance which records our hero's deeds,1 and which, in spite of its inaccuracies and impossibilities, presents so vivid a picture of life on the Welsh Marches in the thirteenth century that, had space permitted, I would gladly have given a fuller account of it here. The name of Fulk Fitz Warine, however, has utterly vanished from the popular traditions. Still, the dim remembrance of an earlier outlaw, who also rode with horse-shoes reversed and fell upon his enemies under Nesscliff Hill, may perhaps have led to the importation into the legend of Wild Humphrey, of places with which the Kynastons had nothing to do--such as the Breidden Hills and Loton Park, the present 'great house' of Alberbury, which was the Fitz Warines' earliest Shropshire home.2 Nesscliff seems to have been the haunt of outlaws and highwaymen from time immemorial. It overlooks the high road...

Download or read book Folklore and Book Culture written by Kevin J. Hayes and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-02-05 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To many observers, folklore and book culture may appear to be opposites. Folklore, after all, involves orally circulated stories and traditions while book culture is concerned with the transmission of written texts. However, as Kevin J. Hayes points out, there are many instances where the two intersect, and exploring those intersections is the purpose of this fascinating and provocative study. Hayes shows that the acquisition of knowledge and the ownership of books have not displaced folklore but instead have given rise to new beliefs and superstitions. Some books have generated new proverbs; others have fostered their own legends. Occasionally the book has served as an important motif in folklore, and in one folk genre--the flyleaf rhyme--the book itself has become the place where folklore occurs, thus indicating a lively interaction between folk, print, and manuscript culture. The author begins by examining the tradition of the Volksbucher--cheaply printed books, often concerned with the occult, whose powers are said to transcend the written text. Hayes looks in depth at one particular Volksbuch--The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses--and proceeds, in subsequent chapters, to discuss a variety of folktales and legends, placing them within the context of book culture and the history of education. He closes with an examination of flyleaf rhymes, the little verses that book owners have inscribed in their books, and considers what they reveal about the identity of the inscribers as well as about attitudes toward book lending, book borrowing, and the circulation of knowledge. Solidly researched and venturing into areas long neglected by scholars. Folklore and Book Culture is a work that will engage not only folklorists but historians and literary scholars as well.
