Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This volume collects miscellaneous folklore and superstitions recorded by contributors to the 'Gentleman's Magazine', capturing the everyday beliefs, customs, and traditions of ordinary people on the margins of 19th-century society. From superstitions attached to specific days of the year to beliefs about birds and animals, the book offers a unique glimpse into the rich tapestry of popular culture and its tenacity even in the face of encroaching modernity. The author examines how these beliefs and customs are often rooted in ancient rituals and traditions, yet they have continued to evolve and adapt over time, reflecting the interplay between the old and the new in society. This fascinating collection of folklore provides valuable insights into the human need to make sense of the world around them and to connect with their heritage.
