Bloomfield, Anne – History of Education, 2001
Focuses on the work of Cecil Sharp (1859-1924), an educator who was the driving force behind a folk-dance revival in England, and the English Folk-Dance Society whose goal was to disseminate knowledge of English Folk-Dances, Singing Games, and Folk-Songs to encourage their practice as a means of national identity in English society.
