Product Description

Book Description
There have been fascinating developments in the study of folklore in the last twenty-or-so years, but few books about British folklore and folk customs reflect these exciting new approaches. As a result there is a huge gap between scholarly approaches to folklore studies and popular beliefs about the character and history of British folklore. Explore Folklore is the first book to bridge that gap, and to show how much 'folklore' there is in modern day Britain.

Explore Folklore provides a lively introduction to the study of most genres of British folklore, presenting the more contentious and profound ideas in a readily accessible manner. This book will appeal to all those interested in traditional customs and lore, and to those interested in contemporary social customs and legends.

About the Author
Bob Trubshaw has been researching and writing about folklore for over sixteen years. This is his third book. During the 1990s he edited a magazine called At the Edge that popularised new ideas in folklore and mythology.
