The folklore of folklore, eh? Or even The Folklore of Fakelore, as once suggested, for even the recent re-inventions are more interesting as to what they represent on an unconscious level as oppose to the generally proscriptive approach taken by modern pagans and folkies alike - think of the teacher in The Wicker Man telling her girls that the Maypole is a Phallic Symbol. But there is something in the human mind that assumes that all things we can't understand directly must have a symbolic meaning, be it our various extant Folk Customs or such Folk Lore as Ring-a-Rosies, which is why, no doubt, such Mythconceptions abound. So even Mythconceptions are folklore, and ever more worthy of our attention...
