Hungarian Heritage 2000 Volume 1 Numbers 1-2 Hungarian Heritage (HU ISSN 1585-9924) presents an overall picture of the traditional culture of Hungary and the Hungarian folklore revival. It features original articles on folk literature, folk music, and folk dance (with special focus on the Hungarian táncház movement), and also deals with folk mythology, rituals, customs and games, and traditional arts, crafts, and architecture. Book reviews, and a critical look at some topical exhibitions, films, videos and sound recordings form a part of every issue, as do reports on the late folk dance and music festivals, folk dance and music camps and folk craft fairs. The journal also provides practical and up-to-date information on coming events (festivals, fairs, exhibitions, etc.), and new audio releases. Hungarian Heritage covers the traditional culture of Magyars living within and outside the borders of present-day Hungary, as well as the culture of Hungary's non-Magyar ethnic minorities.
