At the center of the conflict were concerns of professionalism, science, and academic discipline. For the literary folklorists, the orientation was toward literary works and the unwritten tradition from which they derived. Folklorists a·lso focused on the study of literary types or genres. Child and Kittredge studied the ballad; Thompson, the folktale; Taylor, the riddle and the proverb. In anthropology, study was directed toward cultures without writing, and the emphasis was on fieldwork. Boas in his own writings, and in training his students, stressed collection of every aspect of the life of a people. And part of that material collected was folklore. The literary folklorists looked at literary forms for folklore while the anthropological folklorists looked at the life of the people and saw folklore only as part of it. Although this discipline-bound focus of the two factions created friction and led the two groups in different directions, it helped shape the development of the discipline in the United States. 606 $aFolklore$zE?tats-Unis$xHistoire$2ram 606 $aFolklore$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00930306 606 $aFolklore$zE?tats-Unis$xHistoire 606 $aFolklore$zUnited States$xHistory 607 $aUnited States$2fast 608 $aHistory. 615 7$aFolklore$xHistoire. 615 7$aFolklore. 615 6$aFolklore$xHistoire. 615 0$aFolklore$xHistory. 700 $aZumwalt$b Rosemary Le?vy$f1944-$00 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524675203321 996 $aAmerican Folklore Scholarship$92605770 997 $aUNINA
