Folk literature, also called oral literature, is a branch of the broader field of folklore. In this essay, folklore is used in its broadest sense to mean the sum total of the traditional lore or learning of the folk, and includes their literature, their beliefs, customs and usage, games and recreations, music and dances, arts and crafts, and all forms of material culture. This traditional learning has been handed down from generation to generation orally or by means of customary example. --From the General introduction
