  • Autumn and Its Feasts
    AUTUMN AND ITS FEASTS ARTICLE Summer has been over for quite some time now. The leaves have changed, the temperature has dropped, and now we warily prepare for a season of coughs, chills and bony, barren trees. Even though winter draws nearer with each passing moment, we still look forward to celebrations associated with Autumn, particularly Halloween and Thanksgiving. Other countries have equally fun, bizarre and exciting celebrations that kick off in the Fall—be it dressing in costume or even setting things on fire, we bring you a handful of the most interesting of them all. Let’s go through it one by one, our, neighbors’, world’s most fascinating. THANKSGIVING DAY Thanksgiving Day is an annual national holiday celebrating the harvest and other blessings of the past year. Americans generally believe that their Thanksgiving is modeled on a 1621 harvest feast shared by the English colonists (Pilgrims) of Plymouth and the Wampanoag people. As the country became more urban and family members began to live farther apart, Thanksgiving became a time to gather together. The holiday moved away from its religious roots to allow immigrants of every background to participate in a common tradition. The American holiday is particularly rich in legend and symbolism, and the traditional fare of the Thanksgiving meal typically includes turkey and pumpkin pie. HALLOWEEN HALLOWE’EN, or All Hallows Eve, the name given to the 31st of October as the vigil of Hallowmas or All Saints’ Day. Though now known as little else but the eve of the Christian festival, Hallowe’en and its formerly attendant ceremonies long antedate Christianity.

  • Etymology Etymology Pre-Christian Influences Christian Influences
    Hallowe'en (a shortening of All Hallows’ Evening ), [5] also known as Halloween or All Hallows' Eve ,[6] is a yearly holiday observed around the world on October 31 , the night before All Saints' Day . Much like Day of the Dead celebrations, the Christian feast of All Hallows' Eve, according to some scholars, incorporates traditions from pagan harvest festivals and festivals honouring the dead , particularly the Celtic Samhain ;[6][7][8] other scholars maintain that the feast originated entirely independently of Samhain. [9] Typical festive Halloween activities include trick-or-treating (also known as " guising "), attending costume parties , carving jack-o'-lanterns , lighting bonfires , apple bobbing , visiting haunted attractions , playing pranks , telling scary stories, watching horror films , as well as the religious observances of praying , fasting and attending vigils or church services .[3][2][4][1] Etymology The word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows'-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows' Day .[10] Although the phrase All Hallows' is found in Old English ( ealra h ālgena mæssedæg , mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556. [10] PrePrePre-Pre ---ChristianChristian influences According to some scholars, the observance of Halloween or All Hallows' Eve combines pre-Christian and Christian traditions; [11] other scholars maintain "that Hallowe'en, as the eve of All Saints' Day, originated entirely independently of Samhain and some question the existence of a specific pan-Celtic religious festival which took place on 31st October/1st November." [9] Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona , the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia , it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain (pronounced sow-an or sow-in )", derived from the Old Irish Samuin meaning "summer's end".
