There are many groups that, alone or as part of a larger organisation, try to recreate the clothing, music and lifestyle of different periods. For the most part re-enactment only covers these periods "As they should have been", without events that aren't much fun, such as the Black Death.
Sometimes the term recreationist and re-enactor are used interchangably. Often, a recreationist refers to one who participates in activities like the SCA which have more emphasis on the spirit of the times they recreate, instead of the factual details. A re-enactor can be considered someone involved in a much more accurate portrayal of the times, and usually has a very specific time and place in history.
