Tradičná ľudová kultúra Rusínov a budovanie ich identity v multikultúrnom prostredí základnej školy
Traditional Folk Culture of Ruthenians and Building their Identity in the Multicultural Environment of Primary School

Summary/Abstract: Traditional folk culture is a manifestation of cultural identity, historical awareness and a means of learning about cultural diversity. The cultural tradition and cultural identity of the Ruthenians in Slovakia are interconnected and are not genetically transmitted. Ruthenians currently no longer live in homogeneous village communities, live under significant assimilative influences of the multicultural environment, their cultural manifestations are absent in the curricula and in the textbooks for primary schools. In the youngest generation, national cultural awareness, the ability to communicate in the Ruthenian language, is disappearing. Artifacts of traditional folk culture can be part of the content of cross-curricular themes: Regional education and traditional folk culture, Multicultural education and Global education. The subjects of the paper are attributes and forms of implementation of elements of Ruthenian folk culture into the educational process of primary school.
