Description

Discover the musical companion to the legendary Francis James Child collection. This volume, part of the Princeton Legacy Library, provides both the tunes and the texts for English and Scottish ballads dating from the 13th to the 19th centuries. While Professor Child established the famous canon of texts, Professor Bronson's work expands this study by including the musical counterparts necessary to understand these folk traditions. Originally published in 1959, this edition is brought back to life through modern print-on-demand technology. As part of the Princeton Legacy Library, this book allows researchers, musicians, and folk music enthusiasts to access out-of-print scholarly works from the Princeton University Press backlist. This volume is an essential resource for anyone studying the history of folk music styles and the evolution of traditional balladry.
