by Roberta Reeder (Editor)
Propp's essay in "Russian Folk Lyrics" extends beyond the formalistic analysis of folklore outlined in his classic "The Morphology of the Folktale". The author supplements Propp's theoretical presentation with a comprehensive anthology of examples. He presents the customs of Russian peasant life expressed through the ritual of song.
