## Description

Oral Tradition Journal is a distinguished open-access platform dedicated to the exploration of the world's oral traditions, both historical and contemporary. Established in 1986 by John Miles Foley at the University of Missouri and now hosted by Harvard University, this journal engages a diverse global audience through the publication of insightful articles that illuminate the dynamic realm of spoken, sung, and performed words. 

The journal releases one issue annually, featuring occasional special editions, and welcomes scholarly contributions that investigate the creation, transmission, and interpretation of various forms of oral expression. Researchers are encouraged to submit their work via email, following specific formatting guidelines, with all primary materials quoted in their original languages. The editorial team, led by Editor David F. Elmer and Managing Editor Daniel Frim, oversees a rigorous peer-review process involving two referees for each submission. 

Oral Tradition Journal not only preserves the significance of oral literature but also fosters creative collaboration and knowledge exchange among scholars and enthusiasts.
