Help with Balkan Folklore

[Harris, Adrienne M.]

Dear Natalie, It's quite old, but he might want to look at "Hero Tales and Legends of the Serbians," by Woislav M. Petrovitch.  The volume includes color illustrations, a pre-WWI map of the Balkans, a glossary and index.   All the best, Adrienne

Subject: [SEELANGS] Help with Balkan Folklore

Dear List Members,

I got a query from Dilek Songur, a student in Turkey interested in  
looking at the image of the Turk in Balkan folklore.  He found Vasa D.  
Mihailovich 'Tales from the Heart of the Balkans.'  What else would  
you suggest?  He is interested in secondary as well as primary sources.

You can write to him directly at dsongur at hotmail.com.  Or post to the  
list.  I myself would be interested in the answer to this query.
