Excellent "corrected" editionBy J. R. BrownChild's "English and Scottish Popular Ballads" is THE sourcebook for anyone interested in the traditional ballads of the British Isles, and also invaluable to all aficionados of European folklore and folksong in general. For those not up on their terminology, a ballad is a folksong with a plot, and Child's collection covers everything from foul murders to star-crossed lovers to Robin Hood, in five volumes.I am extremely happy that someone has finally issued an edition incorporating the various addenda and corrections that Child made before his death. There is nothing here that Child did not write, so if you are looking for additional scholarship or commentary you will be disappointed; but the Loomis House edition vastly improves over the Dover facsimiles in completeness and convenience. Additional variants, comments and even some tunes (the one big omission in the original) are placed conveniently near the main text of each category rather than buried in appendices (most of which aren't included in the Dover editions at all). It's well worth the few extra dollars over the Dover books.My one quibble is that they do not reproduce some of the typographical distinctions that Child occasionally used to indicate different features of a text, but this is overshadowed by all the good points of this edition.Overall this is a wonderful and affordable edition; I fervently hope that all five volumes are issued as planned (it's been almost a year since Volume 3 came out...). I have no idea why makes these books so hard to find on their site: fix this, guys!In summary: Buy this book. Now if someone would only reprint Bertrand Bronson's "The Singing Tradition of Child's Popular Ballads" as well....0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. One to get if you like ballads!By TheoHas a lot of good ballads in here (54 through 113), like Sweet William's Ghost and the Selkie of Sule Skerry. I like the way the book is formatted, with info about the song's origins and the descriptions of variations from different countries are really interesting.That said I did get the paperback, so no sheet music. But that's something you can usually find around the internet.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Beautifully faithful to the originalBy Bard of the BrandywineMany years ago (pre- Books!) when I recorded, "Bard of the Brandywine" it was impossible to find Vol. II of the F.J. Child's collection of the English Scottish ballads as it contained the studies on the most popular, Matty Groves and Barbara Allen.So I was ecstatic to find Vol.II published independently of the orignal five-volume collection and to complete my Dover publication set of this seminal study.THANK YOU!Sally Jane Denk-HoeyBard of the Brandywine This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Desire for Perpetuation: Fairy Writing and Re-creation of National Identity in the Narratives of Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang Yuki Yoshino A Thesis Submitted to The University of Edinburgh for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Literature 2013 Abstract This thesis argues that ‘fairy writing’ in the nineteenth-century Scottish literature serves as a peculiar site which accommodates various, often ambiguous and subversive, responses to the processes of constructing new national identities occurring in, and outwith, post-union Scotland. It contends that a pathetic sense of loss, emptiness and absence, together with strong preoccupations with the land, and a desire to perpetuate the nation which has become state-less, commonly underpin the wide variety of fairy writings by Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang.

  • Introduction
    Introduction anne grImes had a gift for collecting songs—partly because she knew how and where to find them. “Everybody thinks you find folk music in the hills; you don’t . it’s in people’s heads,” she told a reporter for the Columbus Citizen- Journal in 1971 before performing at Governor John Gilligan’s Inau- gural Gala at the Ohio Theater in Columbus, Ohio. Born into a pio- neer Ohio family in which music had been important over the gen- erations, Anne Grimes felt a kin- ship with the traditional singers she discovered. As she told the reporter: “In the folk music field, the technical term is ‘informants’; I prefer to think of the people as contributors.” During the height of her col- lecting and performing career in the 1950s and early 1960s, Anne Grimes sang several times at the The cover of the Columbus Dispatch Sunday Magazine, annual National Folk Festival February 17, 1952: Anne Grimes and recorded on Folkways. She with her five children—Mindy also became an expert in the lore (2), Mary (4), Jennifer (6), Sara and techniques of the plucked (10), and Steve (12)—in front or lap dulcimer (also referred to of the Jonathan Alder cabin as the mountain or Appalachian west of Columbus. Photo by Dan F. Prugh courtesy of the dulcimer), and the Anne Grimes Columbus Dispatch collection of these rare folk in- struments—now housed at the Smithsonian Institution—ranks among the nation’s finest. But much of her time and energy was devoted to collecting hundreds of songs and ballads that she then performed in concert-lectures with the general theme of Ohio history through song.

Some, like “Barbara Allen,” had been in print for generations traditional literature to the oral traditions of the folk ballad. and were sung from London to Appalachia.

  • Ballad of the Month: Lamkin (Child #93)
    34 Lamkin (Child #93) Editor: The gruesome tale of the wronged stonemason entering the castle of the greedy nobleman and extracting his revenge by murdering the nobleman's wife and baby with the help of the nurse is one I've been reluctant to sing. Not being one to shy away from the usual tabloid exploits of the Child ballad, with their rapes, murders, infanticide, and incest, I am at a loss to explain my reluctance. So it is with pleasure that I welcome Jon Bartlett and Rika Ruebsaat's discussion of this ballad. After reading their discussion and hearing Northwest Territory balladeer Moira Cameron sing it, I'm ready to tackle it. Almost. It's Lamkin was a masongood As everbuilt wi' stane, He built Lord Wearie'scastle But payment he got nane. But the nourice was a fause limmer As e'er hung on a tree,' She laid a plot wi' Lamkin, Whanher lord was o'er the sea. She laid a plot wi' Lamkin, Whenthe servantswere awa' Loot him in at a little shot-window And brought him to the ha '. "Oh whare's the lady 0' this house That ca's me Lamkin?" "She'sup in her bowersewing But we sooncan bring her down. Then Lamkin's ta 'en a sharp knife That hung down by his gair And he has gien the bonny babe A deepwound and a sair. Then Lamkin he rocked, And the fause nourice sang Till frae ilka bore0 ' the cradle The red blood out sprang. "Oh still my bairn, nourice, Oh still him wi' the pap!" "He winna still, lady, For this nor for that." "Oh still my bairn, nourice, Oh still him wi' the bell!" "He winna still, lady, Till ye c;omedown yoursel." Oh the {irsten step shesteppit She steppit on a stane; But the neistenstep shesteppit She met him -- Lamkin.

  • The Ballad Revival and National Literature: Textual Authority and the Invention of Tradition
    THE BALLAD REVIVAL AND NATIONAL LITERATURE: TEXTUAL AUTHORITY AND THE INVENTION OF TRADITION David Atkinson Francis James Child and the “Popular” Ballad In an encyclopaedia article on “ballad poetry” first published in 1874, the great English-language ballad editor Francis James Child surveyed (with a very substantial bibliography) the ballad literature of a range of European nations.1 For Child, the identification of the ballad genre with the original, native poetry of a nation or people—providing a cultural foundation to the political sense of national identity that was emerging across Europe in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries—could be explained by the peculiar social circumstances that had brought what he called the “popu- lar” ballad into being: “The condition of society in which a truly national or popular poetry appears explains the character of such poetry. It is a con- dition in which the people are not divided by political organization and book-culture into markedly distinct classes, in which consequently there is such community of ideas and feelings that the whole people form an individual.”2 At the end of the same article, Child reiterated: “The genuine popular ballad had its rise in a time when the distinctions since brought about by education and other circumstances had practically no existence.”3 The popular ballads represent “an expression of the mind and heart of the people as an individual, and never of the personality of individual men”.4 1 Francis J. Child, “ ‘Ballad Poetry’, Johnson’s Universal Cyclopædia, 1900”, Journal of Folk- lore Research, 31 (1994), pp. 214–22.
