LORE

This article appears in Volume V17, Page 6 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: LOB-LUP
LORE , properly instruction, teaching, knowledge. The O. Eng. ldr, as the Dutch
leer
  and Ger. Lehre, represents the Old Teutonic
root
 , meaning to impart or receive knowledge, seen in " to learn," " learning." In the
Gentleman
 's Magazine for June 183o it was suggested that " lore " should be used as a termination instead of the
Greek
  derivative -ology in the names of the various sciences. This was never done, but the word, both as termination and alone, is frequently applied to the many traditional beliefs, stories, &c., connected with the
body
  of knowledge concerning
some
special
  subject; e.g. legendary lore,
bird
 -lore, &c. The most
familiar
  use is in " folk-lore " (q.v.).
