Webspinner by John D Niles
Born in 1928 in a tent on the shore of Loch Fyne, Argyll, Duncan Williamson (d. 2007) came to be recognised as one of the foremost storytellers in Scotland and the world. Webspinner is based on more than a hundred hours of tape-recorded interviews undertaken with him in the 1980s.
John D. Niles is author of Homo Narrans: The Poetics and Anthropology of Oral Literature and a number of other books relating to early medieval literature and the theory and practice of oral narrative. Before his retirement in 2011, he taught at Brandeis University, the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of Wisconsin–Madison, where he was the Frederic G. Cassidy Professor of Humanities.
