What is the concept of folklore?

1. Folklore, also known as folk culture, refers to a relatively stable cultural event gradually formed and passed down from generation to generation by a nation or a social group in long-term production practice and social life, which can be simply summarized as fashion and customs.

2. Folk culture is fluid and developing, and it will mutate at every stage of society, seeking survival and development through mutation. When China society is at the critical moment of economic transformation, the changes of people's concepts and lifestyles will inevitably be reflected in the changes of folk culture, which is an objective reality independent of people's will. Looking for folk cultural relics and leaving the history of people's lives has become a serious topic. China is a big country with a long history of folk culture. Folk culture is not only a continuation of history, but also will continue. It is this kind of folk culture that has created the spiritual tradition and humanistic character of the Chinese nation in the process of its formation and development. Therefore, it is of great significance to carry forward China's folk cultural traditions and enhance the cohesion of the Chinese nation.
