In the early 19th century, some Europeans started seeing the stories and songs of illiterate peasants as folklore to be collected, preserved, and perhaps transformed into new literature, art, and music. These folktales, such as legends of vampires, continue to inspire artists. The idea of folklore has expanded to include the shared practices or utterances of any group with at least one linking factor, including latrinalia (wall writings in a public bathroom). Sources include folklore from German, English, Russian, and Yiddish sources, and theoretical essays. Students collect living folklore, and analyze and present it.
