Details:
Main subject:
It is well know that young people prefer to approach cultural and historical elements characterizing their past through game and practice processes rather than through the visit to museums, archaeological sites or libraries. Music, theatre, handicraft, painting, cooking, languages can be the means through which young people progressively come to understand their historic identity, to discover their roots, to recognize themselves as members of a society whose values and principles are being shaped by relations, influences and common historical, artistic and culture elements. In Europe especially, traditions and culture functioned since the past as connecting elements of the countries of the basin, contributing to bring their people closer and to create on their turn, new cultural forms that have survived and evolved until today. Our project focused @ Medieval times life and culture.
Exchange issues:
The main aim of this project is for the participants to discover their historic and cultural identity and re-live the daily life of young people in medieval period trying to discover similarities and differences that characterized the life of the European populations throughout workshops on theatre, music, language, ceramic, painting, athletics, and cooking. Music and food are without doubts some of the elements connecting until today many cultures and populations and it is very interesting to see that there are common music and taste features, tradition or language elements that have been transferred, exchanged -transformed or not- from country to country.
