Brought together for the first time in this volume compiled and edited by Simon Bronner, the selection surveys Dundes's major ideas and emphases, and is introduced by Bronner with a thorough analysis of Dundes's long career, his interpretations, and his inestimable contribution to folklore studies. 606 $aFolklore 606 $aFolkloristes$2thub 607 $aEstats Units d'Amèrica$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aFolklore. 615 7$aFolkloristes 676 $a398.2 700 $aDundes$b Alan$0483932 701 $aBronner$b Simon J$0801383 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910139898903321 996 $aThe meaning of folklore$94200773 997 $aUNINA
