Muzeele etnografice în aer liber din România: chintesenţa culturii şi civilizaţiei de tip tradiţional
The ethnographical open-air museums from Romania and the quintessence of rural world

Summary/Abstract: This paper work brings into question the most important open-air museums from Romania and tries to emphasize the value of their identity. The quick development of museums has generated a veritable Romanian school of museography, recognized both nationally and internationally. The source of this development is represented by the speech of museum; that is how the museum manages to revaluate its available potential and to get imposed in areas of interest from most various: scientific, educational, cultural, touristic, ensuring the representation of as many ethnographical areas as possible. Although the concept of ethnographical museum allows multiple approaches and definitions, this essay highlights the role of the identity of museums and their way of representing the traditional village, given the dynamics and the abandonment of traditions.
