Folklore; A Quarterly Review (Volume XI, 1900) brings together the Transactions of the Folklore Society and material from the Archaeological Review and the Folk-Lore Journal, capturing a spirited, exacting moment in British cultural inquiry. A window into vanished beliefs. The volume balances scholarly report and lived detail: rigorous folklore society transactions and comparative mythology essays sit alongside field notes, short reviews and antiquarian commentary, yielding a British folklore anthology that also reads as a myth and tradition collection and a customs and rituals study. Contributors move between local description and broad comparison, staging folk beliefs exploration that ranges from village observance to cross-cultural parallels. As a folklore journal series entry and an archaeological review volume in one, it offers both the depth researchers expect and the variety that engages the casual reader. The editorial mix of empirical notes, longer essays and brisk reviews gives modern readers a vivid sense of how evidence and argument were marshalled at that turning point. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Literary and historical significance is clear: the volume documents debates, methods and sources central to Victorian era folklore and the early 20th-century moment in Britain when amateur antiquarian interest was shaped into systematic enquiry. Casual readers encounter vivid reports of rites, superstitions and local practice; classic-literature collectors gain a restored piece of a foundational folklore journal series. At the same time, researchers and historians access a reliable academic folklore resource - primary material, contemporary argument and bibliographic leads useful for tracing the formation of modern folklore studies. Concise yet rich, this edition suits both the reference table of a scholar and the shelf of an inquisitive collector. Well suited to university collections, local-history shelves and personal libraries, it makes an exacting companion for anyone tracing cultural continuities across Britain and beyond.
