GUEST,SteveT The Fey: stories and lore, sources pleas (39) RE: The Fey: stories and lore, sources pleas 25 Apr 13


The ballad ("my favourite tale of the fey in ballad form") is King Orfeo (Child 19). Most of the online Child Vol 1 features the supernatural ballads. There's an intersting book on "Folklore in the English and Scottish Ballads" by Wimberly which explores the supernatural aspects. There's also an online version of the Mabinogion at Sacred Texts.

(I've tried pasting the links but Mudcat just rejects the whole post when I do.)
