Abstract
In their letter, d’Huy et al. (1) challenge the novelty of our study (2), and question the reliability of some our results in the light of previous folkloric research and geographic biases in the Aarne Thompson Uther (ATU) index (3). In our reply we explain how their criticisms are already largely addressed in our paper (2) or based on misunderstandings that we clarify below.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
