Abstract:
The magical transference of disease is one of the most engaging subjects in the whole fields of folk medicine. Whether found among primitive peoples in remote parts of the world or in 20th-century America, the practice of ridding a person of a disease by transferring the malady to another person, animal, plant, or other various objects rests on sympathetic magic.

Abstract:
In this chapter, the author surmises the ways to categorize the types of folklore commonly found in Pacific areas by using either Type-Index or Motif-Index systems. To do this, tales from each region, such as Japan, China, and Southeast Asia, must be collected and analyzed for parallels between them.

Abstract:
The author uses The Two Angry Women of Abington as a case study for his thesis that use of proverbs greatly increased in the 16th and early 17th centuries. This play has an abundant amount of proverbial lore, and is unique in the way that the playwright did not draw much from written sources for them.

Abstract:
The author seeks to call attention to the imbalance in the understanding of relations between English-Scottish ballads and Scandinavian folkeviser, and the relation those two have to the French romancero traditionnel or chanson populaire. This imbalance came about from romantic nationalism in the 19th century and the author references works done by Grundtvig and Child.
