History, Tradition and Folklorism. On Museification as a Contemporary Cultural Phenomenon Contemporary interest for the past is no longer satisfied with the cultural models of folklorism. Modern historicism seeks to transform our environment into museified scenery and to submit daily life to the control of an expanding historical consciousness. The limits between yesterday and today, between the museum and its environment tend to fade away, in the confrontation with what seems to be a growing need for cultural stability. This historicism is more than just an answer to a legitimate need for tradition ; it proposes a sort of compensatory praxis to aid in elaborating references for ersatz identities. However, the dynamics of the present is oblivious to such defences and the individual is left with a persistent feeling of mal de vivre. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
