Contiene: Mention Switzerland and what images come to mind? The sublime splendour of the mountains and the rugged Alpine farmer. Nowadays, Swiss and Alpine seem inextricably linked. But what people in and outside Switzerland take for granted is actually a historical product of the last approximately 250 years. It was during this period that the idea of a Swiss folk culture, complete with all the typical representational and thematic accoutrements, was born. But the culture of the many - the cultural practices of the large majority of the population - cannot be reduced to the limited horizon of orchestrated folklore. It also takes place in everyday lifewords, where caught in the cross currents of innovation and tradition it is constantly changing.
