This book presents a survey and examples of Finnish folklore from the nineteenth century to the present. The Nordic country of Finland has received influences from both east and west and serves as an excellent showcase of European folklore in general. Guided by Finnish Folklore, readers may learn about how folklore has been collected and researched in Finland, what regional distinctions exist in the country's traditions, and how traditions have changed in the process of modernization.
