- Summary:
-
“Australian Folk Verse and Melody is a discussion of the Australian folk song tradition from the convict era to its decline around the time of The Great War, and its supplanting by the literary bush balladry movement. It relays tales of fascinating bush characters the author met and field-recorded: dance tunes, bush poems, songs and reminiscences. It investigates the complexities of primal and secondary primal tunes, and their influences. It pays homage to the contribution of his sources and fellow folklorists and reflects the author’s life-long passion and in-depth study of Australian folklore.”--Back cover.
