Autoren-Porträt von Charles Godfrey Leland
Charles Godfrey Leland (1824-1903) was an American humorist, folklorist, and writer, known for his keen interest in folklore and the gypsy culture. Educated at Princeton University, and later in Europe, Leland forged a multifarious literary career. An advocate for the preservation of folk traditions, Leland's ethnographic work was pioneering in the field. His fascination with the unconventional led him to compile an extensive array of stories and superstitions, embodied in works such as 'Legends of Florence: Collected from the People, First Series' (1895). In these collections, Leland not only narrated the tales but also provided acute observations on the culture from which they sprang, illustrating his scholarly appreciation for the symbiotic relationship between story and place. Leland's literary style frequently adopted a blend of erudition and entertainment, aiming to both educate and engage his readers. His contributions to the study of folklore and the preservation of Romani culture are particularly notable, with his works continuing to serve as a primary source for scholars interested in the customs and beliefs of the people of his era. Posthumously, Leland's legacy persists through the enduring charm and historical significance of his eclectic writings.
