Folklife Collection - Folklore/Folklife Proverbs
by Salisbury University Students (1979)
1 folder (0.1 linear feet)
In a series of interviews of local Eastern Shore residents in 1979, Salisbury University students and teachers collected folk life material. Karen Young collected proverbs and sayings in the form of an interview. The informants provided explanation and anecdotes around sayings like "Whistlin' women and a crowin' hen ain't fit for God nor the devil." and many more. As the student pointed out in her introductory essay, some stereotypes and narratives were inevitably connected to this topic.
