5.0 out of 5 stars
A glossary, bibliography, and index round out this welcome addition to folklore and mythology studies shelves,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Slavic Folklore: A Handbook (Greenwood Folklore Handbooks) (Hardcover)
Written by Natalie Kononenko (Kule Chair of Ukranian Ethnography, University of Alberta), Slavic Folklore: A Handbook is a meticulous study of its subject matter rather than a fairy-tale book of stories. Accessible to general readers, Slavic Folklore discusses the definitions and classifications of Slavic mythography, various scholarly approaches and contexts for understanding these enduring works, and a handful of sample texts. Slavic Folklore requires no prior knowledge of Slavic history, folklore, or linguistics, and all transliterations of Slavic names, places, and other words have been carried out with an eye toward practicality and ease of use. A glossary, bibliography, and index round out this welcome addition to folklore and mythology studies shelves, as well as college library reference shelves.
