Hello.
Hello.
When was the New Year Veneto?
The first documents in the Veneto Dogado back to eleventh century AD.
Why is different from the real one?
At the time, was regarded as real for those who use that calendar. Keep in mind that throughout the Middle Ages until the modern age, every state or region had its own calendar. In the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, the New Year was celebrated on March 25.
It 's true that we celebrate in a different way from New Year's present ( marso donut)?
CIAM Mars is a remnant of the old calendar Venetian style (in Latin: "more veneto). The nobility celebrated with banquets and parties, the people lit bonfires (to warm) and tools and other work was a lot of noise in the streets. So much like now.
As ever with the arrival of Napoleon Bonaparte, the calendar is changed?
Why revolutions sweep away everything that was there before. Napoleon had ordered the calendar of the French Revolution even changing the names of the months.
The Venetians were the only ones to celebrate the New Year on March 1?
I find it so. Although in England as in Tuscany is celebrated on March 25. It seems that Venice chose March 1 for convenience in counting, but traced its foundation to March 25. In Ausonia, or better in Southern Italy, was celebrated on September 1.
It seems that this tradition is, as the years pass, dissolving ... How will you raise this' ancient custom?
It 's a tradition linked to our roots, it must be recovered.
can no longer be used as a tool for dating, but as an occasion for celebration and historical memory. So for the recovery must be organized moments of celebration and historical knowledge involving citizenship because remains a historical heritage of all.
But in Montecchio Maggiore, even with the presence of the Civic San Marco and the Northern League in the city government was not organized any events on ... why?
Tradition is not linked to any political label, but belongs to the customs of a people. In some towns in the foothills with Northern League mayors PDL or not, is celebrated every year with parades and concerts. It 'a matter of sensibility: I celebrate the same every year!
Thank you for availability and goodbye!
Xe we see!
