Everyday labour is intermitted by happy holidays when long gone traditions are brought alive to revive community spirit. Old rites often had a function to change nature by magic but they turned into holiday customs.
Dr. Gabor Tarjan is a retired professor of Ethnography and Cultural Anthropology. His research areas are folk customs, symbols, beliefs, architecture, anything related to the term folklore.
He has organised youth programmes, written numerous books and textbooks, made television programmes, taught in universities and participated in conferences in Hungary and in the US.
His main goal is to keep traditions alive by understanding their common spirit that unites us all.
