The Enzyklopadie des Marchens ("Encyclopaedia of the Folktale") [EM] is a reference work presenting the results of almost two centuries of international research in the field of folk narrative tradition past and present. The EM compares the rich stock of narrative material from the most diverse ethnic groups transmitted orally and through the medium of literature, and presents its social, historical, psychological, and religious backgrounds.
