From the 20th century onwards, proverb scholars were involved in not only collecting proverbs, but also analyzing and comparing proverbs. Alan Dundes was a 20th century American folklorist whose scholarly output on proverbs led Wolfgang Mieder to refer to him as a "pioneering paremiologist". Matti Kuusi was a 20th century Finnish paremiologist, the creator of the Matti Kuusi international type system of proverbs. With encouragement from Archer Taylor, he founded the journal "Proverbium: Bulletin d'Information sur les Recherches Parémiologiques", published from 1965 to 1975 by the Society for Finnish Literature, which was later restarted as "Proverbium: International Yearbook of Proverb Scholarship". Archer Taylor was a 20th century American scholar, best known for his "magisterial" book "The Proverb". Dimitrios Loukatos was a 20th century Greek proverb scholar, author of such works as "Aetiological Tales of Modern Greek Proverbs". Arvo Krikmann (1939 – 2017) was an Estonian proverb scholar, whom Wolfgang Mieder called "one of the leading paremiologists in the world" and "master folklorist and paremiologist". Elisabeth Piirainen was a German scholar with 50 proverb-related publications.
