Sobre mimBorn in Scotland 66 years ago. Lived and worked south of the border since 1970. Studied at London Film School and University of Newcastle. Settled at Newcastle in 1988. Have been retired for several years. Reading and listening to music (classical) are my greatest pleasures, followed by travel and walking in the country. Have been interested in photography since my late teens and my work has appeared in magazines and books. Have been invited to exhibit at Berlin and Istanbul. I will have a one-man exhibition devoted to my early work next year at Newcastle.I contribute texts from old books to Project Gutenberg and he Baldwin Project. I also engage in print on demand publishing on a small scale.
Sobre a minha bibliotecaI have so far catalogued only a small part of my collection - it is an ongoing project. My books reflect my interests in Classical culture, the Renaissance in Europe, architecture and 19th Century literature.Children's literature is a great interest and I am active in preparing new texts and editions of old classics for the web as well as for print-on-demand. Am keen to find others who share these interests.Many of the volumes have been called into service when I have been preparing texts to contribute to Project Gutenberg and the Baldwin Project.I also have a large collection of classical music on CD, LP and 78rpm.

Are you familiar with the series put out by Raduga Press? They produced several books during the Soviet era called Folk Tales From the Soviet Union. Each volume was from one federation - eg. Ukraine, Russia, Caucasus etc. They were traditional stories that were illustrated in full color by artists from that area. I believe you can only get them used at this point but worth looking into just the same.

I am interested in the illustrations/illustrators who have not only enhanced folktale and fairy tale collections but also brought those old stories into a new light and introduced them to a new audience.
I admit I don't know much about them and that they have not been a focal point of my study but I do have two good examples in my collection. One is from 1926 titled Skazi: Tales and Legends from Old Russia told by Ida Zeitlin and illustrated by Theodore Nadejen. The illustrations are pasted in the book and are both full color and gold leaf. The other is called Old Tales From the North illustrated by Kay Nielsen from 1975 - the illustrations are both large color plates and smaller black and white companion illustrations.
I'm still entering more and more books though I am winding down now. Most of the ones I've done this week have been books on ballads and American folktales and lore.
Take care & enjoy the journey,
Dan

Thank you for your post. I do enjoy folktales and ballads and folklore in general. I started collecting books on the subject many years ago and the collection seems to have taken on a life of its own. My students at the the University of Illinois and I started cataloging my library and we are almost finished. Please feel free to post me anytime - I enjoy talking about storytelling and folktales and their importance both historically and in today's world. I come to Great Britain often to perform at storytelling festivals - hopefully someday we can share a few tales over a pint.
Take care,
Dan
