This survey will review Bengali folklore, covering all branches, namely, tales, songs, proverbs, riddles, charms, superstitions and similar traditional materials collected and studied during the period 1800-1947 which fell under the British rule. Aboriginal and tribal peoples, such as the Santals, Garos and other tribes, who speak both Bengalee and their own languages, will be included in this survey, for there has been an interchange of culture between these peoples and the Bengalees for a considerable period of time. Even before the British consolidated their power, many travellers came to India and left interesting accounts of the customs and traditions of the people. After the British had become the rulers of India, a great number of British and European travellers came to Bengal and wrote books or published essays about the people. These writings deal with a large amount of folklore materials.

শামসুজ্জামান খান (Shamsuzzaman Khan)

Shamsuzzaman Khan is a leading folklorist of South Asia. Institutionally he began his career as a folklorist in 1981 when, as the Director of the Department of Folklore at Bangla Academy, he discovered the vast richness of folklore in Bangladesh. Soon he realized that the collections so far accumulated from all parts of the country, though incredible and fascinating as texts are mostly collected out of context. This realization changed his life in a dramatic way, for folklore got a new lease of life in Bangladesh under his leadership. Organizing three national folklore workshops in the 1980s with the participation of leading folklorists of the world as instructors, he sophisticated folkloristic study and brought it into the international circle of development and debate in Bangladesh. He has now become the pioneer of contextual and innovative folklore scholarship in Bangladesh. In his current role as the Director-General of Bangla Academy Shamsuzzaman Khan has been very diligently and skillfully creating new generations of folklorists. He has instilled in them the new concepts of folklore research and fieldwork.
