Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The Utah folklore collection (1947-1997) is a collection of student folklore projects which spans nearly fifty years. These projects were prepared by University of Utah students studying in various courses and workshops taught by Louis Zucker, Wayland D. Hand, Hector Lee, Barre Toelken, Jan Harold Brunvand, Margaret K. Brady, and David Stanley. The collection has been arranged in a format similar to that of the folklore collection at Utah State University in 1989 which consisted of two parts: Focused Projects and Genre Items. In general, Focused Projects are those which look at a subject in some detail, often include an interview and present the subject subject in context. Genre Items are single topics such as a game or joke and may include variations.
