The Department of History and the Department of Medieval Studies at Central European University in Budapest invite undergraduate students to rethink the manifestations and roles of tradition and innovation in history at the \u201cTradition and Innovation in Historical Perspective\u201d Undergraduate Conference, which is scheduled for August 3-6, 2017.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

—<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The history of humankind is a story of continuous innovation and rejection of innovation, from prehistory to the present. New technologies were introduced in agricultural production, new materials, processes and implements came into use in handicrafts and industry, new forms of physical and intellectual communication were invented and new networks of interaction between communities were put into practice. At the same time, communities of varying size increasingly relied on passing these now established methods and beliefs from one generation to the next, using these traditions and heritage as a resource for survival and for creating a variety of identities.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The description and explanation for all these processes and their dynamic interplay has long been a task of historical studies, and has remained on the agenda of historians, art historians, archaeologists, and cultural heritage professionals down to the present. Significantly, modern historiography has been particularly concerned with the ambiguities of the very concepts of tradition and innovation, pointing especially to the processes of construction (e.g. \u201cinvented traditions\u201d) and transmission (\u201cnetworks,\u201d \u201ctransfers\u201d and \u201centanglements\u201d) that shaped them.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
