Languages and Folklore of the Upper Midwest

Joseph Salmons and James P. Leary, Series Editors

America’s Upper Midwest has long been a cultural middle ground: the meeting place for centuries of Indigenous Woodland and Plains peoples, the region with the most entrenched and varied European American populations, and home to growing communities of African, Asian, and Latinx Americans. The Languages and Folklore of the Upper Midwest series—associated with the Center for the Study of Upper Midwestern Cultures—welcomes innovative manuscripts offering new perspectives on the languages and cultural traditions/folklore of the Upper Midwest’s diverse peoples, both historical and contemporary.
