ENGL 2710-Introduction to Folklore
This Introduction to Folklore class was very interesting. in the first week alone my eyes were opened to the scope and magnitude that is the reach and influence of folklore. I had never though about specific traditions and other behaviors as a part of folklore, I had usually considered them a part of culture, but this class opened my eyes to the intertwined nature of these two concepts. My favorite part of this class was the assignment to write a narrative summary describing a particular folk group. I chose to focus on a group to which I belong, but also one who can sometimes have a stigma or bad reputation associated with it. I chose to do a humorous magazine article type approach to writing my paper entitled "Crazy Couponing Chicks". I hope you enjoy reading this article as much as I enjoyed writing it.
