Thread Name: Child Ballads survived in oral trad.
Subject: Child Ballads survived in oral trad.
I can't remember where I've read something about the number of the Child Ballads among the 299 in Child's collection that have been collected in last century and how many of them have vanished and couldn't been found any more in the oral tradition. I'd like to know something about that. Thanks. R
