[LM_NET] Mythology/folklore Question

[Arlene - Laverde <ARLverde1@AOL.COM>]

Hello all,
 
I am in the process of writing a paper for a mythology and folklore class  
and have run into a little confusion.  The paper is discussing of the use  of 
mythologies within the Harry Potter books.  My question is this I know  JK 
Rowling uses many different mythologies Celtic, Scandinavian, and Greek but  in my 
research some of the creatures like the Boggart and Mermaids come from  
English folklore----is Celtic myth part of English folklore.
 
Thank you for any assistance you can offer.
