In 1941, Eberhard published a supplementary monograph in the same series, Volksmärchen aus Südost-China, Sammlung Ts'ao Sung-yeh, which offered the actual texts of 190 folktales translated into German, corresponding to many of the tale types he had previously established. This collection was chiefly obtained from schoolchildren in Chin-hua in Chekiang province, the seat of the aboriginal Yao culture.
