ARV means heritage. ARV. Nordic Yearbook of Folklore presents our cultural heritage, folklore, as the foundation of our culture, our patterns of interaction and our world view. Folklore, i.e. popular poetry, belief and custom, is an important identity factor for every nation in historical as well as recent times.

Reading ARV keeps you in touch with recent Nordic folklore and neighbouring disciplines. Recent thematic issues have included magic and witchcraft, memory and culture, and museums and heritage policies.

The journal’s target readership is academics, teachers and local historians.
