Since 1946, the biggest folklore festival in the Czech Republic has been organized in the Southern-Moravian town of Strážnice. Since 1956, a professional institution has worked there that deals with research into folk culture and its protection. The institution is called the National Institute of Folk Culture and belongs to the Ministry of Culture at the present. The Institute was established based on the activity of an office which organized the folklore festival, and enlarged to the contemporary estimable size with overlaps to domestic and international cultural and political stage. In general, the Institute’s focus is on intangible cultural heritage at its practical and theoretical levels. The International Folklore Festival Strážnice has evolved from the original Czechoslovak show of folk songs and dances into the dimensions that allow it to rank among big European festivals with different ways of presentation of traditional folk culture. The cooperation between the National Institute of Folk Culture and the International Folklore Festival Strážnice as well as their anniversaries were the reason for this study. The authors also explain social contexts that led to the interest in folk culture and its demonstration in Czechoslovakia and the Czech Republic.

The study deals with the presentation of folk culture expressions on stage and tries to answer the questions that arise in this context. They relate both to the genesis of the presentation of folk traditions and to the subsequent developments that formed demonstrations of folk culture into a staged genre with artistic ambitions. Based on examples of selected expressions of folk culture in the Czech environment − especially expressions of folklore, which, alongside customary traditions, were always the backbone of staged presentations − the study shows how the demonstration of folk culture expressions was approached, how the performances were accepted by audiences, and which functions (ideological, artistic, and entertainment) were attributed to them. Another important question is what image of folk culture was created on the stage and how this image could have influenced the “living” terrain of the countryside and the very tendencies to protect the values of folk culture, which began to pick up strength in Czech society at the end of the nineteenth century.

W artykule omówiono religijne wyobrażenia białoruskich włościan w XIX wieku. Jako przyczyny słabego przyswajania chrześcijaństwa na białoruskich ziemiach wskazano m.in. częste zmiany wyznania przez miejscową ludność, silną nieufność chłopstwa wobec chrześcijańskiego kleru, nieprzyjmowanie dogmatów i zagorzałe hołdowanie tradycjom przodków? Tekst zawiera również syntetyczny opis postrzegania Boga przez tamtejsze włościaństwo, diagnozę jego stosunku do sił nieczystych oraz dowiedzenie przyczyn głębokiego zakorzenienia mentalności Białorusinów w kulcie przodków.

The article is devoted to religious ideas of Belarusian peasants of the 19th century. It explains the reasons (frequent changes of confessional affiliation of the local population, almost full mistrust of a peasant to Christian clergymen, his weak understanding of Christian dogmas and basic following to traditions of the ancestors) why the Christianity only formally was accepted on the Belarusian territory. It also focuses on Belarusian peasants’ concept of God and evil spirits and clarifies the cause of the deep-rootedness of a cult of ancestors among the people.
