Dear colleagues and Prof Birnbaum:

Do I recall that Prof Natalia Kononenko up in Canada had looked 
into the translations and originals of Afanas'ev's tales  in some 
detail, a year or two ago?  She might be a helpful source.

Best wishes to all,
Steven P Hill,
University of Illinois .

Subject: Afanas'ev tales in English by number?
Dear SEELANGers,

A non-Slavist folklorist (who can read the Cyrillic alphabet, but does not
know Russian) is working on Propp and would like to be able to identify the
relevant Afanas'ev tales in English translation according to their Afanas'ev
reference numbers, as used by Propp in the Morphology. 
[ . . . . ]
Surely in the more than sixty years since the publication of the Pantheon
edition some Slavic folklorist has collated the English translations in that
volume with the Afanas'ev numbers, and perhaps someone has compiled a
similar collation for the newer M. E. Sharpe collection. Can someone provide
such a list?
Thanks,
David (Birnbaum)
