Traditions

The customs people keep, change and make their own.

Our point of view

What lasts is worth looking at closely.

We trace how ideas and practices are passed on, adapted or set aside, with attention to what people can learn from their staying power.

  1. Why a Well-Told Story Is Easier to Pass Along
  2. Oral Instructions or a Written Checklist? Choose by What the Task Demands
  3. How Household Recipes Traveled Before Printed Cookbooks
