Holloko, the first World Heritage village in Europe (since 1987), is exemplary not only because its long history of preservation ranges over different cultural heritage regimes and integrates various levels of heritage protection, but also because it is a village which incorporates intangible heritage elements from the beginning of its conservation in spite of the fact that first it is only protected as an ensemble of vernacular buildings. The article shows by the analysis of the sixty plus years of the documented heritage protection of this village how the regimes of cultural heritage unfold; how cultural heritage agency functions in the context of the interactions between locals, professionals and visitors; and how this heritage village embodies different levels of cultural heritage. The cultural heritage agency is examined in a matrix, which is determined by the three regimes of cultural heritage and by the multiple levels of heritage interpretations ranging from universal to local. The heritagization of the village proves that this process does not wipe out, but reuses broken social practices and that the locals form a public community for which the rather sharp line separating public and private spheres is blurred and needs to be managed.

La reconstitution historique est une activité consistant à représenter, par la recréation matérielle, des personnes qui auraient pu exister au cours d’une époque aujourd’hui révolue. Dans ce cadre, les costumes réalisés par les participants font partie de la culture matérielle reconstituée et donnent une orientation à celle-ci. Concernant plus spécifiquement la période médiévale, cet article interroge le sens que ces vêtements prennent afin de faciliter le passage d’un monde (contemporain) à l’autre (historique). En outre, ces recréations textiles sont aussi des outils permettant d’accéder à un sentiment d’appartenance à une communauté créée par les « reconstituteurs », organisant des savoir-faire et induisant des savoir-être. Suivant cette logique, la corporéité en jeu permet de comprendre comment l’apparence et la présentation de soi font partie d’un système vestimentaire qui enclenche un dépaysement temporel et organise l’activité.

The cliché is still lively: historians, as is well known, tend to portray themselves as craftsmen or artisans, mastering a practical know-how learned patiently through hands-on experience with dusty documents, and showing a conspicuous disdain towards theory and abstractions. This image deserves closer scrutiny. It is interesting that despite this insistence on the craftlike image of the profession, there seems to be a lack of ethnographic investigations of historians at work that would precisely pay attention to the craftiness of history and the multiple practicalities of doing history across different contexts. The idea that historians just do what they do sounds simple enough, but as is the case with any “craft,” from basket weaving to hunting in the rainforest, it is hardly self-evident, either technically or sociologically. To be sure, there are plenty of biographies, autobiographies, “ego-histories,” methodological primers and epistemological essays that tackle and debate the problems of the working historian, but these reflexive narratives remain essentially vertical. Taking our cue from some of the recent developments in science studies and the anthropology of science, we would like to propose in this article a program for a horizontal study of historians, that would be independent of their own reflexive discourse and symmetric in its explanations, and that would be attentive to the varieties of their existence and their becoming in a community of practice.

The one hundred people shot dead on the Maidan were given the collective name Heavenly Hundred (Nebesna Sotnia). It became the central memory of the uprising; a hymn, a new state award, a national memorial day, poetry, monuments, memorial plaques and books were produced. Dozens of streets and squares were renamed in different regions. The paper focuses on the interpretations of large-scale historical events (the Cossack, the Ukrainian National Republic and World War II), and their incorporation into a new institutionalized narrative after drastic societal events on the example of the protests in Ukraine known as the Maidan in the winter of 2014. The research is based on original protest lore, 8905 Facebook posts from 1647 individuals, collected by the author on the day they were published on Facebook between January 19 – February 28, 2014. This timeframe includes both peaceful days and the most dramatic confrontation of the protests. The data originally was organized in 5 categories and 16 topics. The paper provides evidence of how personal stories function and validate the participants’ experiences and the significance of the events from the protestors’ perspectives; and protest lore impact on institutional changes of commemorative practices in the field of collective memory.
