Danish folklorists in the nineteenth century, in the interests of nationalism and cultural chauvinism, made extensive investigations of the culture of the peasant population. At first this was literary only - ballads, myths, tales and proverbs - but was presently extended (especially by Evald Tang Kristensen) to include all aspects of peasant life. From this interview material it has been possible to retrieve a coherent picture of the morphology and dynamics of the village: the economic, political and social structures; the characteristics of a 'peasant cosmology; relationships with other groups - other villages, the manor, a caste of 'untouchables'; and to obtain some hints as to the etiology of these social phenomena
