A General Interview Guide, Edward D. Ives
A General Interview Guide, Edward D. Ives
Northeast Folklore Monographs
What follows is in no sense exhaustive or complete. I started from O'Sullivan's Handbook of Irish Folklore (that's where the basic structure comes from), and then I adapted it to the scene here in the Northeast by adding some questions and changing others. For any one of the aspects covered here, you can get more suggestions by looking al O'Sullivan's work.
I don't recommend trying to work straight through this guide with an informant. Nor do I particularly recommend interviewing with "guide in hand," and I'm dead against it for the first interview. Read the Guide through a few times …

The Maine Folklife Center Curriculum Guide, Irene Jackson
Northeast Folklore Monographs
The Maine Folklife Center Curriculum Guide is a way to bring life into Maine Studies curricula by personalizing history and creating new connections between students and their communities. The guide is geared to help teachers fulfill the Maine Department of Education Learning Results (July, 1997), many of which call for primary research and the understanding of individual lives in an historical context. Specifically, the guide presents an introduction to using the Maine Folklife Center and four units: one on conducting oral histories, one on games, and two on the lumbering life. The games and lumbering units are based on selections …
Northeast Folklore Volume 5: Twenty-One Folksongs From Prince Edward Island, Edward D. Ives
Northeast Folklore Volume 5: Twenty-One Folksongs From Prince Edward Island, Edward D. Ives
Northeast Folklore Monographs
From the introduction by Edward D. "Sandy" Ives: "The twenty-one songs printed in this little volume are a representative sample of the songs I collected on Prince Edward Island during the summers of 1957, 1958, and 1963. ... As a matter of fact, I wasn't even "collecting songs" in the usual sense of that term; I was very specifically looking for songs by Larry Gorman and for biographical. Information about him, and when L wasn't asking about Larry Gorman I was asking about Joe Scott. Thus the present collection is neither the result of my general acquaintance with the traditions …
Northeast Folklore Volume 4: Eight Folktales From Miramichi, Edward D. Ives, Wilmot Macdonald, Louise Manny
Northeast Folklore Volume 4: Eight Folktales From Miramichi, Edward D. Ives, Wilmot Macdonald, Louise Manny
Northeast Folklore Monographs
Volume 4 of Northeast Archives marked a change in the publication. No longer was it published in four editions throughout the year with a variety of small articles, but now it was a single monograph published generally once a year. The focus of the first monograph is Wilmot MacDonald, a singer and storyteller from Miramichi, New Brunswick. Helen Creighton and Edward D. Ives had both collected from MacDonald and this publication came from their collaboration on that material.
