Abstract
Feminist folklore emerged in the 1970s in the United States to uncover women's past silences, expose male biases in reference tools and methodologies and document women's folk expression on its own terms. The tracks of feminist folkloristics in Canada have developed more or less independently and with fundamentally different concerns and issues. The models have developed through exchanges across disciplines and beyond academic boundaries. Collaborative works predominate in bilingual French and English formats. Theorizing and analysis have primarily come from and studied the mainstream and are Canadian in subject as well as origin. As popular theory, Canadian feminist folkloristics offers alternative, potentially transformative models.
