From their studies an interdisciplinary field of research and scholarship has emerged that draws on the methods of literary studies, folklore, anthropology, and linguistics. Foley examines the roots of oral-formulaic theory in nineteenth-century philology and anthropology, documents the contributions of Parry and Lord, measures the effect of Lord's comparative extensions through the impact of The Singer of Tales, and considers important recent contributions. A select bibliography of more than 700 items and a subject-author index enhance the scholarly usefulness of this study. 606 $aOral history$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01047055 606 $aHistoire orale 606 $aOral history 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aOral history. 615 0$aHistoire orale. 615 0$aOral history. 700 $aFoley$b John Miles$0486363 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524844303321 996 $aThe Theory of Oral Composition$92676738 997 $aUNINA
