Folklore

Hi all. Sorry if this is a double post, I'm not quite sure what I'm doing yet.

I'm doing a semester project on oral tradition, and Polish tradition is my main subject matter. And I need some help finding some of these tales. I can find this book: Polish Folktales and Folklore by Michal Malinowski/Anne Pellowski, but I don't want the tales to be highly edited. So I figured what better place to look than here for tales that are not "Americanized".

If anyone can help, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Honestly, anything that is told over and over in modern times that originated a long time ago.

I also forgot to mention that if anyone can recommend books that would help out it would be great. Or if anyone would be willing to tell the tales themselves and to be cited as a source, that'd be helpful too.

Yes, in English only. I've googled it and I can find some things, but they aren't really from legit sites. As it's for a college project, I need accredited sources.
