Vilnius, Lithuania
Etnoratilai (ethno + circles) - radio broadcasts dedicated to the Year of Ethnographic Regions. There are five historically formed ethnic regions in Lithuania - Aukštaitija, Žemaitija, Dzūkija (Dainava), Suvalkija (Sūduva, Užnemunė) and Lithuania Minor (coastal region, former Klaipėda region, Curonian Spit). Ethnic culture manifests itself in this way of life, worldview, language, customs, folklore, folk art, music, choreography, production skills and habits, clothing, food and nutrition, architectural peculiarities, etc. "(Angelė Vyšniauskaitė. What is ethnic culture? // Folk culture, 1997 No. 2. R 1) Since the ethnic culture of a nation is not a fixed but constantly renewing phenomenon, by giving up something, by absorbing something new (innovation), but by accepting only what corresponds to the nation's identity, understanding of national self-consciousness, therefore in ethnic culture two main components are distinguished - cultural heritage and living tradition.
