Book Description
Excerpt from The Folk-Lore Journal, 1888, Vol. 6 An owl had put by for next day the remains of something dainty which he had to eat. But a rat stole it, whereupon the owl Was very angry, and went off to the rat's house, and threatened to kill him. But the rat apologised, saying I will give you this gimlet and tell you how you can obtain from it pleasure far greater than the pleasure of eating the food which I was so rude as to eat up. Look herel you must stick the gimlet with the sharp point upwards in the ground at the foot of this tree then go to the top of the tree yourself, and slide down the trunk. Then the rat went away, and the owl did as the rat had instructed him. But, sliding down on to the sharp gimlet, he impaled himself on it, and suffered great pain, and, in his grief and rage, went off to kill the rat. But again the rat met him with apologies, and, as a peace-offering, gave him a cap for his head. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Folk-Lore Journal, 1885, Vol. 3 The errors in the definition and conception of folk-lore which we have pointed out have for the most part permeated very deeply among those who take up the study. Mr. Lang has on more than one occasion taken pains to bring back the aims and objects of the students of folk-lore to their legitimate basis and function. In the second volume of the folk-lore Record he has given a sort of summary of his views; but by far the best contribution to this subject is the chapter on The Methods of folk-lore in his recently published Custom and Myth, where, although he does not distinctly tell us what his definition of folk-lore really is, and he hesitates to call it a science, he explains and amplifies many of his previous studies. But admirable as these explanations of Mr. Lang's really are, it does not appear to me that they go quite far enough. If it is true that folk-lore is the study of survivals, and that possibly there is no stage of human experience, however early and incomplete, from which something in our institutions does not still survive, it must follow that the study of folk-lore becomes, not the mere amusement of the antiquary, not the craze of an observer of all that is curious and extraordinary, but a science. And then again, if folk-lore is a science, and the science of survivals withal, there is something to be said about its place in the list of sciences, about its relation to other sciences; and, above all, about the chapter it should contribute to the great book of human knowledge. For this to be properly understood we must first give a rapid survey of what is now actually included under the title of folk-lore; and then, if possible, ascertain the scientific reason why folk - lore may properly be said to deal with all these subjects. Sir George Cox uses it curiously, Introduction to Mythology and Folk Lore, p. 7. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
