Description

""Ethnology in Folklore"" is a book written by George Laurence Gomme, which explores the relationship between folklore and ethnology. The author argues that folklore is not just a collection of traditional tales and customs, but also a reflection of the social and cultural practices of a particular community. Gomme examines the ways in which folklore can be used to understand the beliefs, values, and traditions of different societies, and how it can be used to trace the historical and cultural developments of a particular region. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the origins of folklore, the role of folklore in shaping cultural identity, and the ways in which folklore has been used to preserve and transmit cultural knowledge. Gomme draws on a wealth of examples from different cultures and time periods to illustrate his arguments, and provides a comprehensive overview of the field of ethnology in folklore. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in folklore, anthropology, or cultural studies.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1892 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
