HISTORY AND ORIGIN OF THE FEAST
Easter is one of the most important feast for the Christians because it is the period of
suffering, and subsequently, of joy and revival through the pains of God’s son. Christian
Easter has origins from Jewish one that mainly celebrates the release of the chosen people
from the captivity in Egypt. In fact the last week of the terrestrial life of Jesus arrived
during the week of Easter, after which Christ died and resuscitated with the nature. Easter
is a movable feast because its recurrence has depended on the for first Sunday after the
full moon with the arrival of the beautiful season, marking the “awakening of the sun”.
Easter corresponds with the first Sunday after the spring’s plenilunio between the 22 of
March and 25 of April. When Easter happens late, you say “late Easter”, instead when
Easter happens early, you say “early Easter”.
THE LENT
According to when the Easter happens, all the other movable feasts, such as Whitsun,
Corpus Domini and Ascension, change, too.
Easter is preceded by the Lent that means, literally, “fortieth day”. The Lent starts with
the Ash Wednesday and finishes with the sunset on the Maundy Thursday, before
celebrating the Mass “in Coena Domini”, remembering Jesus’ life in the desert.
So, the Lent is a period of the spiritual preparation for the Christian Easter giving alms
and doing actions of faith such as the “Via Crucis”. It is also a period of changes of
mentality and behavior, in fact you usually fast during the Good Friday and the Ash
Wednesday.
THE WEDNESDAY OF THE ASHES
The Wednesday of the ashes marks the end of Carnival’s celebrations and the begin of
Lent. The church has extended the rite of the ashes to all the believers, to remember the
common mortal destiny and so humiliate the pride. The ashes, according the tradition,
must learn from the olive branches that have been blessed the previous year, on the Palm
Sunday. The priest blesses them in a jar on the altar and therefore requires, first to himself
and then to all the faithful, saying the traditional formula "Remember, man, you are dust
and to dust you’ll return."
THE BLESSING OF OLIVE BRANCHES
That is the last Sunday of Lent is dedicated to pruning and harvesting of olive and palm
branches, which are brought to church on Palm Sunday, to be blessed. The olive branches
are adorned with ribbons, colored silver, palm trees are intertwined in various ways and are
subject to gift good wishes during the Easter’s feasts.
EASTER WEEK AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE FOR CHRISTIANS
The Holy Week was born in Jerusalem in the early centuries of Christianity to relive the
events of the Passion. It was then developed in the West with different characteristics.
The parallels today are represented by a procession of palms and adoration of the Cross
on Good Friday.
And the week ends and Lent before Easter. To this is added the fasting, every
Wednesday, which, according to Eastern tradition was the day of the capture of Christ,
and on Friday in remembrance of the Passion of Jesus in this way there were
highlighted in the two acts: the Passion and Resurrection. In the week of the Passion is
recalled the betrayal, the arrest and the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, whose death is the
model for every martyr whose sacrifice involved the redemption of humanity.
THE HONLY THURSDAY
The Holy Thursday Easter’s in the demonstrations, however, begins in the strict sense, and is
divided into two distinct parts.
In the first part takes place the blessing of the oils and Chrism Mass, during which the
priests renew their promises to the Bishop and this ends the first Vespers...
In the second part it begins the Easter Triduum with the Mass of the Lord's Supper, which
also includes the rite of foot washing.The blessing of the oils and Chrisma’s, an
ointmentcomposed of oil mixed with balm and spices is an ancient ritual that dates back to
the Old Testament. Through the anointing a person was introduced into the sphere of the
divine, for an extraordinary and sacred service, for that reason the rite of anointing referred
only to special people such as prophets, priests and kings, and for that reason it was
extended that only later to all believers because the outpouring of holy oil represents the
descent of divine light on the person who receives it.
With the Vespers of Holy Thursday the Easter Triduum of the Passion and Resurrection of
the Lord begins, the culmination of the liturgical celebration. In fact, the Church
remembers and relives the event of redemption. The evening will celebrate the Mass of
the Lord's Supper, the Last Supper with the bread and wine that represents the Eucharist.
At the Last Supper, Jesus washes and dries the feet of his disciples to mark symbolically
the duty to live in service to others. In fact, priests, bishops and the pope perform the rite
of washing themselves and to remind the faith fuls that the Eucharist is linked to the
fraternity.
THE HOLY SATURDAY
Saturday is the second day of the Paschal Triduum. It s'a day without the Eucharistic
celebration. The Christian community waits near the Tomb of Christ, meditating on his
Passion and death to arrive in the light of resurrection. The vigil ends with the Easter mass
in the morning followed by the of Easter SundayResurrection’s.
HOLY WEEK TRADITIONS AND PERFORMANCES
There are many Easter religious events in different Italian regions, some of which are very
enchanting and unique. From north to south it is a succession of processions, sacred shows and
secular catharsis, folklore and tradition. During the whole Holy Week entire communities take to
the streets to celebrate the holy drama of the Passion and Resurrection of Christ with. Very slow
barefoot processions, torches and chains. On Sunday everything turns into a triumph of joy, in a
flying doves to celebrate the resurrected Christ. In the South, it’s the time of "sepulchres" (the
sepulchres are adorned altars, symbolizing the grave of Christ), that is wheat seed or other cereals
floral buds cultivated at home in a damped cotton
bowl, kept in the dark until the moment of the offer
in the church, to obtain unreal water whiteyellowish-green color shades which represent a
propitiatory action for the rebirth of vegetation.
The "sepulchres" are donated by believers for the
decoration of the altar of "repose", where the dead
Christ lies.
The visit-procession to the "sepulchres" lasts until late night and churches, as a sign of grief,
are stripped of the usual decorations to become gathering places of the gifts in addition to the
germinated baskets, colorful ribbons, flowers, fruit , typical cakes and more. The "sepulchres"
tradition requires to visit an odd number of different churches. The Resurrection of Christ is a
metaphor for a general and renewed Christian resurrection but also for a revitalization of
nature that, according to the greek-Roman myth, was favored by the emergence from the earth
of Persephone, the daughter of Ceres, kidnapped by Pluto and segregated in the dark. For rural
societies, that also include the Lucanian one, it’s a critical period because the outcome of the
harvest, prosperity and harmony of agropastoral society come into play. That’s why people
need to circulate the auspicious symbols of rebirth and life.
Many events take place throughout the region: Maschito, Ruvo, Villa d'Agri in the province of
Potenza; Matera, Aliano, in the province of Matera.
However, the most spectacular one is the Mysteries Procession in Barile (Potenza)
which is held in the early afternoon of Good Friday.
The Via Crucis is played by men and women who really feel to be the symbol of the
common atonement. Everyone in the village works during the weeks preceding to the
successful of the procession. For the entire community this is the time of waiting, fear and
hope. The procession winds its way for five miles, opened by three centurions on horseback
and by three girls dressed in white (the three Marys); then there’s a girl dressed in black with
the banner bearing the marks of the Passion of Christ and thirty three girls dressed in black,
symbolizing the age of Christ. Then hundreds of other characters. The Christ is a young man
who has fasted for many days, who according to the tradition is washed, anointed and
dressed by women only who take care of his clothing. The procession has a frenetic rhythm
supported by the presence of men dressed as soldiers who move on horseback up and down
in the streets of the village. Groups of characters move around them: the Romans, the
priests, the people and, again, Mary Magdalene, Mary, the Apostles. The Virgin is
represented into two versions: at first as a women with a different dress: when she was
younger and later as an older woman. In this atmosphere, entirely reconstructed from the
Gospels, some fantasy figures related to man ancestral fears, suddenly appear, bringing a big
confusion.
The most unusual character, "the Giosy " the most beautiful girl in the village dressed with
clothing and covered by the jewels of the wealthiest people in
Barile, is the symbol of richness that hides evil and danger.
People defend themselves giving her all their possessions, even
for a single day.
Foods and recipes of Easter
Easter is not simply the culmination of religious celebrations that begins with Lent and
goon until the Holy Week. It is also the end of a period of abstinence or fasting for devout
Christians, started at the end of Carnival, in midwinter, when that ends with the spring, the
vegetation awakens and proceeds more rapidly towards growth.
Hence the need to circulate the auspicious symbols of rebirth and life, such as eggs, life just
sprung, offers and requests a gift, playing and singing on tours of begging that still
characterize the life of the villages of Lucania. Eggs are also used in sweet or savory pies,
such as rustic pie known by the name of Basilicata pastizz’ prepared with toma, eggs,
cheese and salami, eggs with their elegant form are also a decorative element. For pupae,
("The pannaredd") common in central and southern Italy, of different shapes(doll, horse,
bag, basket) decorated with boiled eggs, never equal in number because according to
tradition, the odd number has propitiatory virtue, colored red because, "the popular tradition
considers the red color can destroy all evil influences".
