To ensure continuity and foster innovation within the discipline of folklore, we must know what came before. Folklore in the United States and Canada is an essential guide to the history and development of graduate folklore programs throughout the United States and Canada. As the first history of folklore studies since the mid-1980s, this book offers a long overdue look into the development of the earliest programs and the novel directions of more recent programs. The volume is encyclopedic in its coverage and is organized chronologically based on the approximate founding date of each program. Drawing extensively on archival sources, oral histories, and personal experience, the contributors explore the key individuals and central events in folklore programs at US and Canadian academic institutions and demonstrate how these programs have been shaped within broader cultural and historical contexts. Revealing the origins of graduate folklore programs, as well as their accomplishments, challenges, and connections, Folklore in the United States and Canada is an essential read for all folklorists and those who are studying to become folklorists.

A major source for England’s folklore heritage and vernacular culture is found in the Folklore Column in the periodical Notes and Queries which ran from 1849 to 1947. Previously, to locate material meant using each of the 15 General Indexes in turn. Instead, this book presents, for the first time, a consolidated index to the contents not only of the Folklore Column, but to other material of interest. Besides the index to Folklore entries itself with some 5,450 references alone, presented here are indexes to Nursery Rhymes, Phrases, Proverbs, Rhymes, Riddles, Songs and Ballads (1,722 titles are mentioned), Provincialisms, and Dialects. Overall, the Subject Indexes here contain in total 12,168 references. As such, this book presents the reader with ready access to a neglected corpus of material.
