Summary: | The Vepsian folklore and language remained in the periphery of Paul Ariste’s research subjects. Most of his fieldwork materials were destroyed in the 1965 fire, a small part of the collection is preserved in the Literary Museum (mostly folk songs, but also folk tales). P. Ariste has also published some of the Vepsian folk tales he collected (“Vepsa muinasjutte ” [The Folk Tales of the Veps], Tallinn 1964). Paul Ariste’s greatest contribution to the study of the Veps, both folklore and language, was his work at educating new gen-erations of researchers of the Vepsian folklore. |
