Ø Subjects Ø Transfer |
Selected materials from the Wayne State University Folklore Archive were transferred to the Archives of Labor and Urban Affairs in July of 1999 by the Archive’s director, Professor Janet Langlois, and opened for research in March of 2000.
The Folklore Archive, established in 1939 by WSU English professors Emlyn Gardner and Thelma James, contains the oldest and largest record of urban folk traditions in the United States. At its core are thousands of student field research projects covering a broad range of topics. These projects typically consist of transcripts of oral interviews conducted by the students as part of their research. The collection is strong in modern industrial and occupational folklore, reflecting the rich ethnic diversity and work-oriented heritage of Detroit and southeastern Michigan.
The Archive also contains oral histories (tapes and transcripts) and scholarly papers documenting Greek-American family life and the migration of Southern Appalachian whites to the metropolitan Detroit area and oral interviews with Pete Seeger and Irwin Silber of People’s Songs, Inc., which collected, published and promoted folksongs, particularly labor and protest songs.
