Narratives in society: A performer-centered study of narration

by Linda Dégh

Narratives in Society represents three decades of scholarship by distinguished folklorist Linda Dégh. The twenty essays -- some new, the rest newly revised -- present Dégh's ideas, theories, and approaches to folktales: the people who tell them, listen to them, pass them on, and the communities that support them.
