I developed some unique software to public it on the web that I call the Folklore Project.
Andy Hertzfeld

I have a better internal and intuitive understanding of folklore and myth than science and technology, so in that way fantasy is easier.
Sarah Zettel

I have a great advantage over many of my colleagues inasmuch as my students bring with them to class their own personal knowledge of national, regional, religious, ethnic, occupational, and family folklore traditions.
Alan Dundes

I'm working on a very long series of paintings based on desert folklore.
Terri Windling

If a student takes the whole series of my folklore courses including the graduate seminars, he or she should learn something about fieldwork, something about bibliography, something about how to carry out library research, and something about how to publish that research.
Alan Dundes

If you take myth and folklore, and these things that speak in symbols, they can be interpreted in so many ways that although the actual image is clear enough, the interpretation is infinitely blurred, a sort of enormous rainbow of every possible colour you could imagine.
Diana Wynne Jones

In more recent years, I've become more and more fascinated with the indigenous folklore of this land, Native American folklore, and also Hispanic folklore now that I live in the Southwest.
Terri Windling

In my introductory course, Anthropology 160, the Forms of Folklore, I try to show the students what the major and minor genres of folklore are, and how they can be analyzed.
Alan Dundes

My academic identity is that of a folklorist, and for many years I have taught only folklore courses.
Alan Dundes

One of the best things about folklore and fairy tales is that the best fantasy is what you find right around the corner, in this world. That's where the old stuff came from.
Terri Windling

Read the folklore masters. Go to galleries. Walk in the woods. That's what you need to be an artist or storyteller.
Terri Windling

The class has become over the years fairly large, running to three hundred or more, but I always insist upon reading all the student folklore collections myself. Although this is a tall order, I look forward to it because I learn so much from it.
Alan Dundes

Their term project consists of a fieldwork collection of folklore that they create by interviewing family members, friends, or anyone they can manage to persuade to serve as an informant.
Alan Dundes

There is more to folklore research than fieldwork. This is why in all of my other upper-division courses I require a term paper involving original research.
Alan Dundes

They do not merely collect texts; they must also gather data about the context and the informant and, above all, write an analysis of the items based upon the course readings and lecture material on folklore theory and method.
Alan Dundes

To us, basing stories on christianity is the same as basing stories on Roman mythology, Native American folklore, or unsubstantiated government conspiracies.
Richard King

What I find interesting about folklore is the dialogue it gives us with storytellers from centuries past.
Terri Windling

When fairy tales are written in the west, they're known as folklore. In the east, fairy tales are called religions.
Paul Henderson

When I was younger, I was in love with everything about the British Isles, from British folklore to Celtic music. That was always where my passions were as a young girl, and so I studied folklore as a college student in England and Ireland.
