The article examines the breakthrough of Bedouin women in Northern Israel, based on the testimony of twenty young Bedouin women who did not accept the ‘traditional’ role of the woman, in the family in particular and in Bedouin society in the village in general. This group of women succeeded in breaking the boundaries of the tribe and struggled for the right to complete high school and even to study in the institutions of higher education.

Normal people’s nationalism. Ethnicization of music tradition for instance some festival in GučaSince the 1980’s ethnology and social and cultural anthropology have witnessed an increasing number of studies and debates on nationalism in the light of popular culture. In the light of theory formulated by Hobsbawm, Gellner, Hayes and Comaroff nationalism is effect not big symbols and official politics, but rather popular entertainment, media and normal practices normal people in its normal life. Traditional primordial concepts of nationalism are deep regressive.In this paper, I discuss a few contradictions in the relationship between tradition, nationalism and music. An excellent example illustrating specific nature of these contradictions is Dragačevski sabor trubača (Guča Trumpet Festival) in Guča, Serbia and particular music genre – brass music. In my opinion there are three distinctive discourses/narrations about history and meaning this festival and specific kind of music: dominating Serbian discourse, ‘weak’ Gypsy discourse, and researcher’s discourse. This study is effect an ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 2010 by an author and large group of students from Institute of Ethnology and Cultural Anthropology Adam Mickiewicz University Poznań, Poland.

This paper will explore the way that the poetry of David Jones, while generally recognised as being modernist, nevertheless promotes a continuation of the Western literary tradition (as opposed to more revolutionary strands of modernism), but does this while introducing a self-conscious understanding of the role and workings of tradition, an element lacking in pre-modern traditional literature. Other figures with a similar interest in the viability of a self-consciously understood practice of (literary or philosophical) tradition, in continuity with pre-modern tradition, but in modern conditions (Thomas Mann, John Henry Newman, Alasdair MacIntyre), will also be discussed.

This article aims at outlining the method of dividing the Polish political thought. For this purpose the category of “tradition” is used “Tradition” is perceived by the author as a type of conscious and reflective choice of achievements of the past made in the present. Based on “tradition” the author distinguishes the following currents of the Polish nationalist thought: the current of Neo-National Democracy, the current of National Radicalism, the Catholic National current, as well as the Progressive current and the current of Slavonic Neo-Paganism. Apart from political thought the tradition of Polish nationalism also includes political movement issues, literature and art. An important role in the reception and transmission of “tradition” to contemporary times is played by its guardians, which means people who endeavor to pass it on in a form desired by them.

On Polish nationalism in wide perspectiveIn this book review of “Dylematy polskiego nacjonalizmu” by B. Grott the author argues that B. Grott based on an interdisciplinary comparative shows not only the shape of selected Polish nationalist political doctrines in the two factions: the Catholic faction that is characterized by traditionalism, and the modernizing faction, that is characterized by facing the challenges of modernity, but also shows the compounds between them and their values and practice of life of the nation and its historical success. Polski nacjonalizm w szerokiej perspektywieW niniejszej recenzji książki B. Grotta pt. Dylematy polskiego nacjonalizmu… autor przekonuje, iż B. Grott w oparciu o metodę interdyscyplinarną i porównawczą przedstawia nie tylko kształt wybranych polskich nacjonalistycznych doktryn politycznych w dwóch odłamach: w katolickim odłamie, o charakterze na wskroś tradycjonalistycznym i w modernizacyjnym odłamie, zwróconym frontem do wyzwań nowoczesności, ale także ukazuje związki pomiędzy nimi i lansowanymi tam wartościami a praktyką życia narodu i jego powodzenia dziejowego.

The article relates to the problem of cultural heritage. States that education should focus on this in the light of modernization and building standard of multicultural society. The Author deliberates the needed changes in cultural awareness of individuals through changes in the relation individual – culture. In the time of modernity these relation was mediated by tradition of the group. In the postmodernity we observe straight relation. In this regard need to be discussed reality of heritage and concept of tradition. The article ends with analyses of cultural pluralism – multiculturality and tranculturality as terms which creates different socio – cultural standards and designs different relation: individual – culture.

Beads have been part of the traditional dress essence of the Africans and other popular cultures of the world. Benin art is phenomena and generally accepted worldwide partly as a result of their resounding uniqueness, peculiarity and exceptional finishing of delicate forms especially those bordering on beads. These beads are used for the making of the Oba’s diadem, dresses and shoes. Some of his flywhisks are made of beads too. In contemporary time, and even in ancient period, the Oba beaded crown continue to evolve to the extent that the style of crown worn then is different from those in vogue today. The Queen Mother’s beaded crown has also gone through some significant changes and processes. Today, what we have is a profoundly gracious and courtly beaded crown. What are the other outstanding importance and weighty functions of the bead to the Benin man and woman and by extension to other popular cultures and traditions of the world? This is what this paper has unearthed, critically appraised and established.

In this paper I analyze the way of construing memory and identity in the works of Lviv-based artist Olena Kostiuk. I place particular emphasis on two of her projects: The Orchard and The Mirror. In both of them the artists refers to Ukrainian archetypes, testimonies and material remnants of the past, using them in her performance, forcing the audience to rethink human condition as well as their own attitude towards the past, the tradition, and the nation.

This paper, which addresses the question of the relation between tradition and upbringing, assumes a conception of the person as a being with two fundamental characteristics: imperfection (incompleteness) and a capacity for being perfected by upbringing and education. Upbringing is then necessarily founded on tradition, on the continuity of generations – it is an introduction to a world which is older than all its current occupiers, and at the same time aims to prepare the young for a new life of their own in different conditions. The hermeneutical analysis of the connections between an historical consciousness, subject to a critical perspective on all that is handed down, with a tradition understood as the passing on of what has been received, makes a permanent claim on the upbringer and on upbringing. One of the possible ways of meeting this claim is presented by Gadamer in his conception of "legitimate prejudices", which bridges the divide between historical consciousness and tradition and, in addition, exploits the tension in upbringing we have mentioned.

This article is an introduction to the idea of tradition which is present in H.-G. Gadamer’s thoughts. The author analyzes tradition in the context of the art experience. In the first part the author of this paper describes tradition in the broader hermeneutic context. The author depicts tradition and, consecutively: understanding, hermeneutic experience, ‘historically effected consciousness’, horizon, authority, prejudice. The second part addresses specifically Gadamer's thoughts on the arts as an experience of tradition. Gadamer's hermeneutic theory is interpreted as a presumptive solution to the problem of contemporary culture.

The aim of the article is to show the relationship between the Zandek housing estate and the community inhabiting it. Concentrating workers of Donnersamck steelwork, it used to be a perfectly functioning space of inhabitance. Nowadays, the inhabitants form a culturally diversified system. The problems are standard flats and social pathology. Though, it used to be the place of a specific culture. Today Zandek can be considered a cultural area because of the monuments placed here and an active nature of enthusiasts. Tradition, closed in the inhabitance space, helps to look for an identity and meet the needs of living in a safe and healthy environment. It is a factor stimulating the formation of formal societies that have a positive influence on the whole local community.

A context of my paper is the debate on reason, tradition and traditional communities, in which this moral and epistemological issues were discussed as a part of general socio-philosophical theory of modernity. In particular I intend to locate my considerations in the context of formal-pragmatic theory of modern communicative rationality developed by Jürgen Habermas and Robert Brandom. I will provide a competitive model of the rationality of tradition by applying a conceptual toolkit of pragmatically oriented analysis to explain practices connected with vocabulary of tradition. I argue that tradition as a communication system has a fully rational structure. My main claim is that communicative structure of tradition has a rational structure of language game. This structure includes defined principles of communication for members of closed tradition-grounded community and rule of inclusion for potential new members. Firstly I consider closely internal principles of communication within the framework of tradition contrasting them shortly with normative-deontic rules of the postenlightenment idea of pragmatic communication discussed by Jürgen Habermas and Robert Brandom. After that I examine the rule of inclusion — the rule, which mediates between closed system of tradition-based community and his environment.

In Morocco, marriage remains a decisive event and an all-important choice. In a world in which misunderstandings poison our daily acts and interpersonal relationships, young Moroccan men and women are often unable to find the husband or wife they want and long for. And some Moroccan oulémas, far from facilitating such events as they should as religious scholars, make the situation even worse by contradicting Islam’s purest foundations.

The author looks at transformation of the Slovak literature after 1989 in a context of perception of changing collection of romantic myth, the perception of one's own identity and, consequently, the modification of the so-called national character. The aim of this paper is to show, describe and analyse Peter Pišťanek’s short story Mladý Dônč as an example of demythologizing tendences in Slovak prose in the 90s. The question is approached from comparative angle: author looks for links between the structure of the story Mladý Dônč, and hagiographic legends, fairy magic model and traditional Slovak legends of Juraj Janosik. Pišťanek’s ironic approach to the national mythology concerns primarily such its component like idealization of the rural Slovak family or position occupied by folklore in whole 19th century Slovak culture.

The article presents a historical perspective that underlined the dynamic anthropology of Georges Balandier, a French sociologist, anthropologist and Africanist. Pointing to the inspirations of work of E.E. Evans-Pritchard and the Manchester School on Balandier, the author stresses the lack of greater cooperation between the British and French anthropology. The Annales School, and in particular the theoretical work of Georges Gurvitch, exerted a significant influence on Balandier's concepts. Connections with the latter influenced Balandier's radical cut-off from the concept of Claude Lévi-Strauss. Balandier's exploratory approach allowed for capturing the historical dynamics guiding social and cultural phenomena. By showing the relationship between tradition and modernity, he questioned ahistorical ethnology. Although he was not a historian, his work became an inspiration for the history of Africa emerging on French soil.

An overview of all the 1,973 songs that have appeared in seventy Estonian, Latvian, and Lithuanian national song celebration programmes from 1869 to the present day reveals a richly innovative, creative tradition: in each of the three festival repertoires, 74–84 percent of the songs were performed only once over the entire history of the national celebrations. When concert participants choose to repeat songs sung in previous years, they identify these songs as heritage. Sometimes, most notably in the retrospective Estonian programmes of 1969 and 2014, a large portion of the concert repertoire was repeated from the past. The tradition as a whole, however, is not necessarily past-oriented. Some celebrations have turned away from heritage. In the 1928 Estonian celebration, for example, only 2 percent of the programme (only one song) had ever been sung in an earlier celebration. This, too, is a heritage of song celebrations: future organisers are free to decide how many, if any, songs they wish to repeat from earlier festivals. The song festival tradition allows both innovative and conservative choice of repertoire at any given festival.

This paper proposes a reflection on architextual and metatextual questions suggested by five literary leaflets of the Raymond Cantel collection kept by the Centre de Recherches Latino Américaines (Poitiers, France). Between attachment to tradition and thirst for freedom, popular poets confront their views on an art that, as part of a canon and defending their identity, has been able to state the ambiguity that defines it and to adapt itself to the evolution of society, beyond the folkloric assumptions to which it was sometimes reduced.

The article is an attempt to answer the question about the relation between tradition and the development of theological cognition. The church from the first centuries was aware that allegiance to the council tenets exceeds a technical repetition of council`s formulas. It is clear that a belief in dogma assumes openness to both the past and the future.In the article two approaches to tradition are criticized: archeological and enthusiastic. The first one is linked with attempt to end the possibility of adding to a developing tradition further at any point in history; the second one is a result of conviction that currents form of doctrine and church are exactly what is wanted by God.In reference to K. Rahner, J. Ratzinger and W. Kasper the typological­‑sacramental meaning of the tradition was proposed. It lets us – basing on the statements of the Vatican II – overcome a progressivist hermeneutic of rupture and go toward a hermeneutic of continuity and to the real reform of the church. In other words, it means that the process of reception and realization of Jesus` teaching and of the history of Christianity lives on and every epoch, every culture and every generation has a task to deepen and to better understand all revelation given to us by Christ. It must be done with a sensitivity to the historical, cultural and religious contexts of every period of history including the present.

The purpose of the article is to present Maria Montessori’s pedagogy and her concepts included in contemporary integrated education which uses modern teaching technologies. Methods: The author relies on her own research and takes account of the source literature. She uses the diagnostic survey method. Results: The author analyzes the situation of early school education and the use of new technologies by teachers. Primarly, the report of her research was applied. The data analysis results show that the vast majority of teachers undertook to implement new technologies into education, but unfortunately on a rare basis, and the group that uses these devices in education most frequently and undertakes training is early school and pre-school education teachers. In addition, the author, based on the obtained research results, presented examples of educational solutions that could combine Maria Montessori’s pedagogy and new technologies. Conclusions: The purpose of the article is to present Maria Montessori’s pedagogy and her concepts included in modern integrated education which uses modern teaching technologies. Therefore, efforts were made to diagnose the range of application of modern technologies in integrated education. Determining the involvement of teachers in the organization of the teaching process with the use of new technologies is important because not all teachers have IT education. This issue was mentioned in the quantitative research conducted among teachers in 2021. In addition, the author, based on the obtained research results, presented examples of educational solutions that could combine Maria Montessori’s pedagogy and new technologies. Teachers should update their knowledge on didactic innovations that improve the process of gaining information about the world and follow those aspects which determine the behaviour and needs of students nowadays. I have presented in this article a method to combine educational ideas which are centuries apart.
