TLDR
In 1988, I had the honour to deliver the Katharine Briggs Memorial Lecture to the Folklore Society as discussed by the authors, which was with some trepidation that I selected a theme to which Kathaline Briggs made her own contribution and which has long interested members of this Society, from whose work I have learned a good deal.
Abstract
IN 1988 I had the honour to be invited to deliver the Katharine Briggs Memorial Lecture to the Folklore Society. It was with some trepidation that I selected a theme to which Katharine Briggs made her own contribution and which has long interested members of this Society, from whose work I have learned a good deal. The present paper corresponds largely, though not entirely, to the lecture given on that occasion (a tape of which is in the Society's Library); it is an abbreviated version of the chapter on 'Rough Music' in my recent book Customs in Common (Merlin Press, 1991).
