Résumé

In 'Domestic Folk-Lore, ' T. F. Thiselton-Dyer intricately weaves together a tapestry of cultural traditions, superstitions, and domestic practices from various regions, reflecting the rich oral heritage of everyday life. The book is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and incorporates an array of anecdotes, local customs, and folk beliefs that define the domestic sphere. Thiselton-Dyer's style is both scholarly and accessible, serving as a bridge between academic inquiry and popular understanding.
The text emerges from the Victorian context, where a burgeoning interest in folklore and ethnography was reshaping the understanding of national identity and cultural memory. Thiselton-Dyer, an influential figure in the study of folklore, was deeply engaged with the cultural narratives of his time. His background as a naturalist and a member of the Royal Society of Literature provided him with a unique lens through which he examined the folk traditions that permeate daily life.
His experiences traveling across various regions and engaging with diverse communities undoubtedly influenced his desire to document these ephemeral narratives, preserving them for future generations. Readers seeking a deeper understanding of cultural heritage will find 'Domestic Folk-Lore' to be an invaluable resource. Its rich compilation of myths, sayings, and rituals reveals the profound connection between domesticity and community identity.
It is highly recommended for anyone interested in folklore, anthropology, or the intricate textures of everyday life. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A succinct Introduction situates the work's timeless appeal and themes. - The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists. - A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the era's events and influences that shaped the writing. - An Author Biography reveals milestones in the author's life, illuminating the personal insights behind the text. - A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings. - Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the work's messages, connecting them to modern life. - Hand-picked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.
