Abstract:

In anthropological museums material objects serve to depict relationships between people, objects, and the physical world. Thus there is an obvious link between the museological side of anthropology and that branch of folklore or folklife studies which focuses on material culture. Both study objects as indices of the minds of their makers. Recently, however, the proponents of both of these subdisciplines have been taken to task for an over-emphasis on the object in and of itself which leads them to ignore or obscure the "environment" within which that object originally existed. Folklorists who wish to discern both the form and meaning of material items and those who recognize the importance of studying all aspects of a multi-faceted event have benefited from the performance-centered approach which extends its focus from the folkloric item to the total context within which that item was generated. It is this approach which enables folklorists to view verbal or visual forms in relationship to various cultural processes and to address topics in ethnoaesthetics, ethics, and education which folklore shares with anthropology and museology. The following is a brief discussion of the way in which concepts from folklore theory can be used in the anthropological museum exhibit to present a more dynamic and accurate picture of the relationship between people and things.

Abstract:

Abstract As a country officially engaged in the intangible cultural heritage (hereafter ICH) inventorying and other safeguarding mechanisms of the UNESCO 2003 Convention, Romania provides an example of how folklorists strive to transcend the traditional rules of their discipline and to adapt their methodology and overview to supporting the implementation of the Convention. Starting from the recent Romanian contribution to the multinational file for inscribing the “Lipizzan horse breeding traditions” on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, this paper highlights the counterbalancing influences encountered during this process. Given the distance between this ICH element and the topoi that stand in the mainstream of Romanian folklore studies, the author will provide arguments for considering horse husbandry as a worthy example of living heritage in Romania, ensuring visibility to this tradition in a context dominated by the definition of folklore as an artistic or expressive phenomenon that is being (re)presented as ICH and less by folklife and aesthetic social and cultural manifestations. Using other examples of Romanian living heritage less visible at the level of scholarly and policy initiatives, the author pleads for a middle ground between traditional folklore studies and the theory and current practices of documenting living heritage. The topic may thus contribute to greater efforts to break the old rules of the discipline, turning experts’ eyes from mythological horses to real ones.
