The supernatural in romantic fiction

Yardley's compilation here on Romantic Fiction is more a broad overview which seeks to compare and correlate prior works, than it is one flowing work in its own right. Drawing together folklore as widely separated as the Norse Sagas and then-modern poetry, it points to various literary traditions and supernatural (and occult) tropes and plots within the Gesta Romanorum, Arabian Nights, and many others.This work can serve as a good springboard into additional study into folklore, since it lists so many secondary works.
