In this project, Amelia Festa interviewed Ethel Mae Bowman, who had recently celebrated being 100 years old. During this interview, Ms. Bowman talked about all of the changes she has seen during her life, things like how transportation has changed from horse driven to vehicle, how fashion has changed, about the importance of family and marriage, how sickness was treated in the early 1900s, and much more. This interview is among projects created by students enrolled in English 446 (initially English 452), “Appalachian Folklore,” 1981-2019, and in graduate level counterparts English 548 and 648 “Appalachian Folk Culture(s)” offered 17 fall semesters between 1987 and 2009. Minimally contain collector’s introduction and analysis, transcribed informant interviews, and excerpted and labeled examples of oral, customary, and/or material folklore/folklife collected primarily within the Appalachian region. Most include also tables of contents, informant information, indexes (outlines) of interviews, photographs, miscellaneous paper items, and indexes of informants, genres, and geographic locations. Accompanying audio recordings (several minutes to 2+ hours). Transferred to McConnell Library Archives & Special Collections from Appalachian Regional and Rural Studies Center, Fall 2013.
