Abstract
This fascinating volume is an excellent and powerful approach to methods of narrative analysis, and one which is likely to be accessible to readers/ scholars from a wide variety of backgrounds. And so it is thereby capable of making for folklorists an easier approach to (motif) analysis than the more customary ones. As the publisher's reader tells us, it does indeed 'work within and across conventional research boundaries', and not merely within fieldwork or research in the social sciences.
