"This book reappraises women's contribution to the field of folklore and fairy-tale studies in Italy and Ireland in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries by exploring their role as preservers of oral traditions and as crucial intermediaries between different cultural groups. The book begins by introducing the transnational dimension of the nineteenth-century European folk revivals and identifies key female writers, collectors, and compilers of folklore and fairy tales in Italy and Ireland. The author then focuses on four women writers and folklore collectors who worked in these countries: Laura Gonzenbach (1842-1878), author of Sicilianische Mèarchen (1870), a collection of Sicilian oral tales later translated into German and English; Grazia Deledda (1871-1936), whose Sardinian ethnographic sketches, legends, and fairy tales circulated in late nineteenth-century Italian and Sardinian journals; Lady Jane Wilde (1821-1896), who published Ancient Legends, Mystic Charms and Superstitions of Ireland (1887) and Ancient Cures, Charms, and Usages of Ireland (1890); and Lady Augusta Gregory (1852-1932), who collected traditional Irish narratives from County Mayo, County Galway, and the Aran Islands, and published collections including Visions and Beliefs in the West of Ireland (1920). In the author's words, "this book is a three-fold act of recovery of the lives and works of nineteenth-century female collectors and compilers who undertook these efforts, of their forgotten informants, and of the tales and traditions they bequeathed to them, so that their voices can finally speak from the shadows and emerge from the invisibility they were relegated to.""--
