- Tales from Slavic Myths - Ivan Hudec. I have had this book on order from Barnes & Noble for over a year. If this actually comes out this month I will be flabbergasted.
- Legends and Lore of Western Pennsylvania - Thomas White. I went to school and have many friends from Western Pennsylvania, and I am sure that I have heards some of these tales recounted to me by local friends.
- This Is What They Say: Stories - Francois Mandeville. Chipewyan story cycle re-told. Evidently the new spelling is Chipewyan, a fact that I was unawares of.
- Lakota Sioux Legends and Myths: Native American Oral Traditions Recorded by Marie L. McLaughlin and Zitkala-Sa. - ed. by Peter Jones.
- Naive: Modernism and Folklore in Contemporary Graphic Design - ed. by R. Klanten and H. Hellige.
- Legends and Landscape: Plenary Papers from the 5th Celtic-Nordic-Baltic Folklore Symposium, Reykavik 2005 - ed. by Terry Gunnell. Oooooo, I love this sort of things. Symposia papers and festschriften get me excited!
- Faustus: The Life and Times of a Renaissance Legend - Leo Ruickbee.
- Do You See What I Mean?: Plains Indian Sign Talk and the Embodiment of Action - Brenda Farnell.
- Sango in Africa and the African Diaspora - Joel E. Tishken, Toyin Falola, Akintunde Akinyemi, eds. Part of the African Expressive Cultures series. Sango is the Yoruba god of thunder.
- At the Font of the Marvelous: Exploring Oral Narrative and Mythic Imagery of the Iroquois and Their Neighbors - Anthony Wonderley.
Not that many new books this month, but still too many to keep up with!
