Episode 107: FOLKLORE 101

Mark Norman, creator and host of The Folklore Podcast, welcomes folklorist Dr Jeana Jorgensen onto the show to discuss the study of folklore, why it is important and the types of approaches which could be used. Acting as a springboard for the discussion is Jeana's book 'Folklore 101' which is one of the liveliest and most accessible introductions to the subject which anyone could hope to read.Follow Jeana on Twitter here (https://twitter.com/foxyfolklorist)Click here (https://onlysky.media/author/jjorgensen/) for Jeana's blog on Only Sky.Please help to support the work of the Folklore Podcast and its other projects in collecting and preserving folklore materials for the future.
