«Rumores y leyendas urbanas» is the essay by Jean-Bruno Renard and Eva Díaz Doménech published by Davinci Continental in paperback (128 pages, in Spanish).
It analyses urban legends as brief, surprising stories that circulate in modern societies, between reality and fiction. It distinguishes them from rumours, news events and traditional legends, reviews how they became an object of study and examines their main themes, from the puppy in the microwave to the alligators of New York.
It belongs to the collection «¿Qué sé?» (no. 18); it was originally published in French as «Rumeurs et légendes urbaines».
For readers interested in contemporary folklore and the social mechanisms of rumour dissemination.
