Özet
Why do we decorate evergreen trees, exchange gifts, light candles, and gather around a fire each Christmas? How much of the festival comes from Christian worship—and how much from older winter traditions?
In Christmas in Ritual and Tradition, Christian and Pagan, Clement A. Miles travels through centuries of belief and celebration to uncover the surprising histories behind familiar customs.
First published in 1912, this richly researched study begins with the Christian feast: its poetry and carols, midnight services, Nativity scenes, and dramatic traditions. Miles then turns to the older festivals and folk beliefs that became intertwined with Christmas, from Roman winter celebrations to northern European Yule customs.
Discover the legends surrounding St. Nicholas and other gift-bringers; trace the history of the Yule log, Christmas tree, holly, and mistletoe; and explore the feasting, masks, omens, and celebrations that stretch from Advent to Epiphany.
Drawing on traditions from many European regions, Miles illuminates the changing relationship between sacred ritual, seasonal festivity, and everyday life. His interpretations reflect the scholarship of his era, but his remarkable collection of customs and stories remains an absorbing window into cultural history.
This AI-narrated edition offers a clear, carefully paced listening experience designed to make the book's vivid examples and historical insights accessible.
Go beyond the decorations and discover the forgotten stories behind the season. Explore Christmas in Ritual and Tradition, Christian and Pagan. Start listening today!
