IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF UNIVERSAL AND ROMANIAN ETHNOLOGY: DELIA-ANAMARIA RĂCHIȘAN, UNIVERSAL AND ROMANIAN ETHNOLOGY, CLUJ-NAPOCA, NAPOCA STAR, UNIVERSITAS, 2023

Summary/Abstract: The course material entitled "Universal and Romanian Ethnology" focuses on symbols found in various cultural spaces. The author Delia-Anamaria Răchișan addresses these themes from an interdisciplinary perspective. The analyzed themes are some universals – for example, the significance of the cross, the symbolism of numbers, the role of rites of passage (birth, marriage), the chromaticism of the trinket [mărțisor] in the Balkan space, etc. The course material is engaging, and the multiple-choice tests support students' learning. The theoretical aspect blends with the practical one, and the photographs provide conclusive evidence. The course material is intended for students and for those interested in delving into the traditions and customs of predecessors, regardless of cultural space.
