5.0 out of 5 stars
Probably the most valuable book on the study of myths.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Types of the Folktale: A Classification and Bibliography (Hardcover)
For all purposes, this book can be considered the companion
volume to the _Motif-Index_of_Folk-Literature_, Thompson's
encyclopedic classification of all known myths and
folk-tales. _Types_of_the_Folktale_ expounds the presence
of syncretic motifs and themes cross-culturally, and then
explains the basis of Aarne and Thompson's study, which
resulted in the Motif-Index. Most books doing a study of
mythography will simply presume you have read this first.
