Folk Dance Research in Hungary: Relations among Theory, Fieldwork and the Archive

Abstract

Widespread interest and recognition of folklore, from the late eighteenth century onwards, provided a stimulating atmosphere for the emergence of scientific investigation into folk dance traditions in Hungary. The particular ethos of Hungarian folk dance research, which is shared to a greater or lesser extent with other countries in east and central Europe, has been determined by three specific features: a vigorous and rich traditional dance culture upon which to focus; a well-constructed institutional framework within which to conduct the research; and access to modest technical equipment to support fieldwork and subsequent analysis of the collected materials. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
