Traditional Knowledge
Heritage Theory
- Cultural heritage: connection past - present - future
- Performativity - consequences of speaking and acting
- Starting point of ICH: traditional knowledge
- Upheld through interaction of people
- Know-how versus know-that
- Rests in the memory of practitioners until acted out
The Aims of Safeguarding
Documentation
Tangible cultural heritage:
- preserve objects and buildings
- specimens taken out of circulation for conservation
Intangible cultural heritage:
- maintain traditional knowledge
- continued practice
- transmission!
- Tradition = long chain of performances
- Documentation = snapshot of one performance in the chain
- information on previous stages
