Autor: Child, Francis James
Rok: 1825-1896 Francis James Child (February 1, 1825 – September 11, 1896) was an American scholar, educator, and folklorist, best known today for his collection of folk songs known as the Child Ballads. Child was Boylston professor of rhetoric and oratory at Harvard University, where he produced influential editions of English poetry. In 1876 he was named Harvard's first Professor of English, a position which allowed him to focus on academic research. It was during this time that he began work on the Child Ballads.The Child Ballads were published in five volumes between 1882 and 1898. They are a major contribution to the study of English-language folk music. |
