The Hajduk (Freedom Fighter) Winter Dramatic Rites of the Romanian Population in Bukovina (Based on ethnographic field research)
Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2016, Vol 22, Issue 1
Abstract
The article reflects one of the most interesting elements of folk rituals of the Romanian population in Bukovina – the hajduk (free fighter or outlaw) folk theatrical representations, traditions which have been preserved to our days. The paper is based on the results of long-term field studies (1997-2015) and also on the specific sources. Folk performances have been exposed to an extensive historical, cartographic and ethnographic analysis. Moreover, an important component of the investigation is the comparative approach to the phenomenon of mutual interferences and influences of two neighbouring cultures: the Romanian culture - as a representative of the Latin cultural and linguistic space, and the Ukrainian culture – as a representative of the Slavic ethos.
