Book Synopsis Modern Street Ballads by : John Ashton
Book excerpt: Modern Street Ballads is a generous collection of early 19th-century street ballads. Ballads developed out of minstrelsy in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. These were narrative poems that had combined with French courtly romances and Germanic legends that were popular at the King's court, as well as in the halls of lords of the realm.
