In recent years, the assumption that traditional songs originated from a primarily oral tradition has been challenged by research into ’street literature’ - that is, the cheap printed broadsides and chapbooks that poured from the presses of jobbing printers from the late sixteenth century until the beginning of the twentieth. Not only are some traditional singers known to have learned songs from printed sources, but most of the songs were composed by professional writers and reached the populace in printed form. Street Ballads in Nineteenth-Century Britain, Ireland, and North America engages with the long-running debate over the origin of traditional songs by examining street literature’s interaction with, and influence on, oral traditions.

The collection includes late 19th century Irish and English broadside ballads. Of the total 972 broadsides, the vast bulk were printed in either Cork or Dublin, Ireland. Many of the Dublin broadsides were published by Peter Brerenton. Broadside ballads were printed and sold by ballad singers as well as in street fairs and markets and included the lyrics for popular songs. They were printed on one side of inexpensive paper and often included woodcut illustrations.
