The first number of "Národopisná revue" magazine in the year 1996 is focused on issues concerning an outstanding ethnographic region of Moravia, the Hanácké Slovácko. As its name reveals, the region lies on the borders of Moravian Slovakia and Haná.

Influences from both sides merge in this region. Richard Jeřábek in his study classifies basic terms as Hanácké Slovácko (the region) and Hanáčťí Slováci (its inhabitants). Martina Pavlicová examines personalities who have influenced the cultural life of the region within this century. Alena Jeřábková deals with drawings of the inhabitants of the region done by the well-known Czech artist Mikoláš Aleš. Jan Trojan in his study discusses songs of Hanáčtí Slováci. Jitka Matuzsková deals with folk tales in the literary work of Marie Damborská. Hana Dvořáková brings a brief profile of Jakub Vrbas, a folklife specialist, plus an example of his work. These articles are completed by a paper by Marta Toncrová on the research of the Viennese Czechs.

The first number of this volume further contains reports from folklife festivals and seminars, evaluation of exhibitions, reviews of publications, some lesser articles, and the list of books and magazines of the international exchange of publications in Ústav lidové kultury in Strážnice in 1995.
