TinaP	Trad ballad into modern works (27)	Trad ballads incorporated into modern works	02 Apr 06
The thread about originality prompts my question. I am looking for incidences of traditional murder ballads, e.g. Little Musgrave, incorporated into current literature, film, and other arts. For instance, there is a mystery novel by Deborah Grabien called Matty Groves, Charles Frasier incorporated trad ballad stories into Cold Mountain [carried over into the film], the book The Rose and the Briar has modern authors riffing on ballads. As always, thank you in advance....I always learn so much from you all. Cheers, Tina
