Harvest Ceremony BEYOND THE THANK~GIVING MYTH - a study guide ­ Harvest Ceremony BEYOND THE THANKSGIVING MYTH Summary: Native American people who first encountered the “pilgrims” at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts play a major role in the imagination of American people today. Contemporary celebrations of the Thanksgiving holiday focus on the idea that the “first Thanksgiving” was a friendly gathering of two disparate groups—or even neighbors—who shared a meal and lived harmoniously. In actuality, the assembly of these people had much more to do with political alliances, diplomacy, and an effort at rarely achieved, temporary peaceful coexistence. Although Native American people have always given thanks for the world around them, the Thanksgiving celebrated today is more a combination of Puritan religious practices and the European festival called Harvest Home, which then grew to encompass Native foods. The First People families, but a woman could inherit the position if there was no male heir.

  • Religious Festival Marketing: Distinguishing Between Devout Believers and Tourists
    religions Article Religious Festival Marketing: Distinguishing between Devout Believers and Tourists Kuo-Yan Wang 1 , Azilah Kasim 2,* and Jing Yu 1 1 Department of Marketing in School of Economics and Management, Guangdong University of Petrochemical Technology, Maoming 525000, China; [email protected] (K.-Y.W.); [email protected] (J.Y.) 2 School of Tourism, Hospitality & Event Management, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Sintok 06010, Malaysia * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 July 2020; Accepted: 10 August 2020; Published: 12 August 2020 Abstract: Customer classification is an integral part of marketing planning activities. Researchers have struggled to classify “pilgrims” and “tourists” because these groups overlap to a large extent in terms of their identities while participating in religious activities/sightseeing. To achieve sustainable tourism development for the region with rich religious and cultural characteristics, the present article outlines a process for analyzing the motivation of participants attending religious festival of Mazu in Taiwan and then classifies religious festival participants according to their motivations. Using cluster sampling, a total of 280 responses were obtained and analyzed. The results revealed four different motivation categories: Fun traveler, devout believer, cultural enthusiast, and religious pragmatist. The study concludes that while festivalgoers are influenced by secularization to some extent, the original doctrine of the religion epitomized in the festivals fundamentally retains the essence and spirit of its religious rituals. The findings may have a significant value for the development of religious tourism marketing as it offers a foundation for future research seeking to develop regional cultural and religious sightseeing attractions sustainably.

In the 20th century, visiting cemeteries in Poland on 1st November acquired some attributes of recreation and cultural tourism, visible in the atmosphere of a country fair and the ludic character of the cemetery surroundings, as well as the visitors’ commemorative, contemplative and cognitive motivations. Due to cultural changes, All Saints’ Day is increasingly perceived as a tourist event or even a cultural tourism product. The article presents a comparative description of the All Saints’ Day celebrations in Poland and the Day of the Dead in Latin America, and an analysis of visitors at selected Łódź cemeteries along with a description of the cemetery surroundings on 1st November 2019. The author has used unpublished research results from 2004, as well as discussing the secular and recreational aspects of All Saints’ Day.

PHILADELPHIA: J. W. BRADLEY, PUBLISHER, 48 XORTH FOURTH STREET. 18i>9. "hecksd lay 1913 I BUG. Ho. I 5 8 4 '81 155249 It: ,^r.. l r-:. »f • r -- 1 SERMON " They joy before Thee according to the joy in harvest." Isaiah ix. 3. We are not, to-day, specially concerned with the text's original reference. The prophet here uses a figure illustra tive of Christian life. He is describing prospectively the gladness of Gospel times — a joy not profane and sensual, but holy and religious. A joy "before Thee" (i. e.) in the pre sence of Jehovah, or in holy exercises and ordinances. And this joy he compares to "the joy of harvest." The text suggests two simple thoughts, befitting our cir cumstances : First — That the season of harvest is a proper occasion of joy ; and Secondly — That this joy of harvest is a pattern of true Christian gladness. Let us consider them in their order. First — The text teaches that the season of har \ vest is a proper occasion for joy. Under the old dispensation, such manifestations of glad ness were prescribed and ceremonial. On last Thanksgiving morning we described at length that old feast of harvest, and V we need not repeat it. It was an occasion of exceeding gladness. The old land of promise woke into rapture as a V child to its holiday. Eyes flashed, hearts bounded, lips broke forth into singing, and from valley to mountain top, Judea foamed and sparkled with glad life at this God- appointed festival.
