Zugriff:
Folklore is an essential part of American studies, allowing that discipline to both enlarge its own scope and its influence on liberal arts in general. Folklore provides a perspective for studying communities and groups of living people, a necessity of successful American studies. This focus on real people and folklore's means of tracing change in culture by studying a wide variety of texts and practices make it a backbone of American studies.
