Book Description
A period of sixteen years having elapsed since an edition of the Newcastle local songs was published in a collective form. And that volume having been for some time out of print, renders almost superfluous any apology in presenting the following collection to the public. During the last few years, so great has been the progress of education amongst the humbler classes of society, that many of those eccentricities so often seized upon by our local poets as subjects of humorous satire, are fast disappearing, hence making the need for a revival of this book a great need.

Street Ballads in Nineteenth-Century Britain, Ireland, and North America
Author: David AtkinsonPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317049217
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
In recent years, the assumption that traditional songs originated from a primarily oral tradition has been challenged by research into ’street literature’ - that is, the cheap printed broadsides and chapbooks that poured from the presses of jobbing printers from the late sixteenth century until the beginning of the twentieth. Not only are some traditional singers known to have learned songs from printed sources, but most of the songs were composed by professional writers and reached the populace in printed form. Street Ballads in Nineteenth-Century Britain, Ireland, and North America engages with the long-running debate over the origin of traditional songs by examining street literature’s interaction with, and influence on, oral traditions.
