Folklore and the Symbolists

[Eric Metz]

Dear Eric,

Natalya A. Molchanova is the author of a "kandidatskaya" on the Russian 
Symbolists' use of Russian folklore motives - "Мотивы русской мифологии и 
фольклора в лирике символистов
1900-х годов: Автореф. дис. … канд. филол. наук." Горький. 1984. 24 с. See 
also her "Русские символисты–исследователи фольклора". М.,1986.

On Bal'mont and Slavic folklore, see Molchanova's article "Об одной 
фольклорной интерпретации в 'Жар-птице' К. Д. Бальмонта", in: Творчество 
писателя и литературный процесс. Иваново, 1982."

With best regards,
Eric Metz

Can someone point me to some good sources on the Symbolists' use of
