Life Is Like a Chicken Coop Ladder was first published in 1984 and
from the outset inspired a wide variety of reactions ranging from
high praise to utter disgust. Alan Dundes' theses identifies a
strong anal erotic element in German national character, citing
numerous examples of scatological data from authentic compilations
of German folklore. The examination of this single trait of German
character is used to demonstrate that national character exists and
that its existence is unambiguously documented by the folklore of a
nation. Dundes is of the opinion that the use of folkloristic data
minimizes subjective bias in the study of national character, since
unedited or uncensored, it constitutes a unique way of looking at a
culture from the inside-out rather than from the outside-in, the
more typical situation of an outside observer trying to understand
a foreign culture.
