The historical context of the passage suggests that "the village is living in a time where traditions from the past are still valued." The description of the villagers gathering to celebrate a long-standing tradition, as well as the imagery of the village and the smell of fresh bread, evokes a sense of a close-knit community that cherishes and upholds its cultural heritage. This indicates a focus on longstanding customs rather than modern advancements or urbanization.
