Abstract

Written by folklorist Andrew Lang, this work examines the ambivalent relationship the living have attempted to forge with the dead throughout history. Nicknamed 'the Wizard of St Andrews', this polymath also worked as an anthropologist, classicist, historian, poet, mythologist, essayist & journalist, producing over 100 publications in his lifetime. Largely ignored by scholarship, this book suggests expanding the study of folklore to include contemporary narratives of supernatural events. Taking its title from the legends of the notorious Cock Lane ghost, the work considers the survival of ancient beliefs such as hauntings, clairvoyance, & other phenomena believed to transcend the laws of nature, & how such beliefs have persisted through great social upheaval & change.
