Excerpt from The Handbook of Folklore
In 1884 and 1885 some discussion took place in the pages of the Folklore Journal (in vols. ii. and iii.) on the definition of folklore and its aims, and the result was that a strong feeling, which had been gradually growing up unexpressed, was at once shown to exist on the importance of the society issuing some sort of guide for collectors and workers on folklore. Some of the papers contributed to the Journal were of use to collectors, even in the form in which they there appeared, and Mr. Stewart Lockhart had them translated into Chinese and widely distributed in China, with some good results. At that time I had partly prepared an elementary introduction to the science of folklore, and upon this becoming known to the Council they passed the following resolution, 12th January, 1887: "That Mr. Gomme be requested to print his MS. of the proposed Handbook of Folklore, and that proofs of the several sections be sent to the Members of the Council for correction, addition, or revision."
