Love is in the air this month with Valentine’s Day around the corner, but how many of us know just why we are celebrating? The fact is, there are a number of moments in history from which the holiday could have come and no one can say for sure which of them, if any, could be the definitive original source – most likely it has been an evolution, with vestiges from more than one place or time. It is often most closely associated with the ancient Roman festival Lupercalia, which itself is not fully understood. The festival has been connected with the legendary she-wolf Lupa, who nursed the founders of Rome – Romulus and Remus – when they were babes. She also protected the flocks and herds from wolves. The festival was also associated with the god Faunus – the god of agriculture. Lupercalia began with a sacrifice. A goat for fertility and a dog for purification were slain, before thongs and whips would be fashioned from the dead animals skins. The young men would then use these bloody thongs to softly lash at any women who came near; the thought was that the blow would make the woman fertile, and women welcomed it. A world away from what we are used to today Christian feast day, Saint Valentine’s Day, in the 5th perhaps! There were a great many other rituals Century but it is a mystery which St Valentine he as part of the festival that would seem intended to honour, there are at least three by strange to us in 2016, sacrifice that name recorded by the catholic and a sort of casual semi- church – all of them apparently brutality not being martyred. common place here and Most believe the St. Valentine that now but to them it was Gelasius intended to pay tribute a necessity.

Father Valentine paid the emperor little heed, continuing to marry young people in secret until he was caught by the Romans and sentenced to death. The myth goes on to say that Father Valentine fell in love with his jailer’s daughter. On 14th February he managed to pass a letter to his love before he was executed. The letter was signed “from your Valentine”. There are many myths surrounding the man but one thing that seems to remain constant is that he was a good man, very brave and an old romantic at heart. However, in spite of his romantic soul, it seems that the first time the link between romance and Valentine’s Day was recorded, was by Geoffrey Chaucer in 1383. Chaucer had written a poem to commemorate the engagement between Richard II and Anne of Bohemia, a huge 700 line poem that fairly commonplace here in the UK by the 18th took him almost a year to finish. It was completed Century. Perhaps not the mass produced cards on 14th February, 1383 and was quite up to and gifts we know today – cards would have Chaucer’s usual character.
