Evald Tang Kristensen was one of the great collectors of first-hand accounts of peasant life and culture, perhaps the greatest, not only in Denmark but in the world. For sixty years and more (1867-1929) he worked incessantly at finding, recording, collating and getting into print the largest body of this material ever assembled by one person. His published work is more extensive (more than 30,000 pages) than that of any other Danish writer, including N.F.S. Grundtvig and Georg Brandes; while the great majority of his collected material remains unpublished to this day: he left his heirs, the Danish Folklore Archives (Dansk Folkemindesamling) a collection, said to be three times as much again, of material in ordered form which has never been published and which awaits analysis. Here can be found the journals of his collecting journeys and the notebooks in which he recorded his interviews; his correspondence with various notabilities such as Svend Grundtvig; letters to his family (marked Not to be used!); other memorabilia, such as dreams recorded by him during the last 25 years of his life; and some of his collection of books, including several copies of Cyprianus, a well-known and widely-circulated book of magic. A collection, mostly of his personal effects - his staff and knapsack - is to be found in the museum in Herning, and another at Vejle Museum.

Danish folklore is a rich topic often overlooked, as so few people have gone to the source and diligently written down all the oral traditions of this region. One man changed this, bringing true perseverance and a real joy for the collection of his countries folk tales. This book is the story of that man, Evald Tang Kristensen, with some of the tales he collected. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
