Contemporary Carpatho-Rusyn Music in Ethnic and Linguistic Revitalization Movement

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Drawing on the concepts of linguistic and musical anthropology, this article explores the role of contemporary music production in the ethnolinguistic revitalization of the Carpatho-Rusyn mi-nority in Slovakia. The study aims to clarify and analyse how modern musical genres and emerg-ing hybrid genres contribute to the strengthening of the Carpatho-Rusyn language and ethnic identity in the context of ongoing language shift and assimilation. The research employs a quali-tative methodology, combining ethnographic fieldwork in northeastern Slovakia with in-depth interviews of musicians, cultural organizers, and members of the Carpatho-Rusyn community, as well as textual and audiovisual analysis of music-related content. The findings suggest that modern musical forms play a significant role in shaping the linguistic and cultural-musical world of Carpatho-Rusyns. Artists operating in this sphere often intentionally use the Carpatho-Rusyn language as a marker of ethnic belonging, creative authorship, and resistance to dominant cul-tural norms. Music production targeting younger audiences situates the language within socially attractive, contemporary frameworks, thereby enhancing its symbolic and communicative pres-tige and legitimizing its use beyond traditional domains. Ultimately, music emerges not only as a cultural symbol, but as an active agent in processes of identity negotiation and ethnolinguistic revitalization. It becomes a dynamic space where belonging is performed, and where traditionand innovation coexist through hybrid expression.
