Westport, CN/ London: Greenwood Press, 2005-6. ... Let us start with a seeming digression. The fourteen member Editorial Advisory Board of the cited milestone-marking encyclopedia of folklore worldwide was one particularly composed of a wide range of active scholars, in the main the then editors or long serving representatives of (regionally) significant folkloric journals.
