Por esta razão, o Dia de Ação de Graças é festejado no outono, após a colheita ter sido </font><font face="Verdana">recolhida. </font><font face="Verdana">O primeiro deles foi celebrado em Plymouth, Massachusetts, pelos colonos que fundaram a vila em 1619. Após </font><font face="Verdana">péssimas colheitas e um inverno rigoroso, os colonos tiveram uma boa colheita de milho no verão de 1621. Por </font><font face="Verdana">ordem do governador da vila, em homenagem ao progresso desta em relação a anos anteriores, uma festividade </font><font face="Verdana">foi marcada no início do outono de 1621. Os homens de Plymouth mataram patos e perus. Outras comidas que </font><font face="Verdana">fizeram parte do cardápio eram peixes e milho. Cerca de 90 índios também atenderam a festividade. Todos </font><font face="Verdana">comiam ao ar livre, em grandes mesas. </font><font face="Verdana">Nos anos seguintes, festividades similares foram realizadas em Plymouth, mas nenhuma data tradicional havia </font><font face="Verdana">sido implementada. Tais festividades se espalharam da vila para outras vilas e cidades da Nova Inglaterra. Na </font><font face="Verdana">Revolução Americana de 1776, oito dias de gratitude foram implementadas em homenagem a vitórias das Treze </font><font face="Verdana">Colônias sobre as tropas britânicas. Em 1789, o presidente americano George Washington implementou 26 de </font><font face="Verdana">novembro como o dia nacional de Ação de Graças. </font><font face="Verdana">Porém, por muitos anos, o Dia de Ação de Graças não foi instituído como feriado nacional, sendo observado </font><font face="Verdana">como tal em apenas certos Estados americanos como Nova Iorque, Massachusetts e Virgínia. Em 1863, o então </font><font face="Verdana">presidente dos Estados Unidos, Abraham Lincoln, declarou que a última quinta-feira do mês de novembro seria o </font><font face="Verdana">dia nacional de Ação de Graças. Mas em 1939, merda [Franklin Delano Roosevelt]] instituiu que esse dia seria </font><font face="Verdana">celebrado na terceira semana de novembro, com o intuito de ajudar o comércio, aumentando o tempo disponível </font><font face="Verdana">para propagandas e compras antes do Natal (À época, era considerado inapropriado fazer propagandas de </font><font face="Verdana">produtos à venda antes do Dia de Ação de Graças). Como a declaração de Roosevelt não era mandatória, 23 </font><font face="Verdana">Estados adotaram a medida instituída por Roosevelt, e 22 não o fizeram, com o restante tomando ambas a quintafeira </font><font face="Verdana">da terceira e da quarta semana de novembro como Dia de Ação de Graças.

Em inglês, &ldquo;noite sagrada&rdquo; significa <em>hallow evening</em>, mas com o tempo este termo sofrendo alterações, até se chegar ao nome atual: <em>Hallow Evening</em> -&gt; <em>Hallowe`en</em> -&gt; <strong><em>Halloween</em></strong>.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">b) Outra hipótese é que a Igreja Católica tenha tentado eliminar a festa pagã do <em>Samhain</em> instituindo restrições na véspera do Dia de Todos os Santos. Este dia seria conhecido nos países de língua inglesa como <strong>All Hallows` Eve</strong>.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px"><strong>2 -</strong> Como um festival que marcava o fim do verão, passou a ser relacionado com bruxas e afins?</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Segundo o site do <em>Wikipedia</em>, a relação da comemoração do <em>Halloween</em> com as bruxas propriamente ditas, teria começado na Idade Média no seguimento das perseguições incitadas por líderes políticos e religiosos, sendo conduzidos julgamentos pela Inquisição, com o intuito de condenar os homens ou mulheres que fossem considerados curandeiros e/ou pagãos. Todos os que fossem alvo de tal suspeita eram designados por bruxos ou bruxas, com elevado sentido negativo e pejorativo, devendo ser julgados pelo tribunal do Santo Ofício e, na maioria das vezes, queimados na fogueira nos designados autos-de-fé.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Essa designação se perpetuou e a comemoração do <em>Halloween</em>, levada até aos Estados Unidos pelos emigrantes irlandeses (povo de etnia e cultura celta) no Século XIX, ficou assim conhecida como &quot;Dia das Bruxas&quot;, dando origem ao dia da bruxa ficando assim como uma lenda histórica.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Os cristãos mais fiéis reprovam as comemorações.

Na verdade era um festival do calendário celta da Irlanda, o festival de <em>Samhain</em>*, celebrado entre 30 de outubro e 2 de novembro, que marcava o fim do verão.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Para os celtas, o fim do verão era considerado como a virada do ano novo, porém com um sentido mais sagrado, pois durante este período eles consideravam que o &quot;véu&quot; entre o mundo </span><span style="color: #000000"><span style="font-size: 12px">material</span><span style="font-size: 12px"> </span></span><span style="font-size: 12px">e o mundo dos mortos (ancestrais) e dos deuses (mundo divino) ficava mais tênue. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">O <em>Samhain</em> era comemorado por volta do dia 1&ordm; de novembro, com alegria e homenagens aos que já partiram e aos deuses, pois para os celtas, os deuses também eram seus ancestrais, os primeiros de toda árvore genealógica. </span></p> <p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 12px"><br /> <span style="color: #ff0000"><strong class="legendafoto"><em>Trick or treat?</em></strong></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="color: #ff0000"><strong class="legendafoto"><em><input width="200" height="133" type="image" src="http://www.queroaprenderingles.co.cc/images/stories/trick.JPG" /></em></strong></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">* <em>Samhain</em> significa literalmente &quot;fim do verão&quot; na </span><span style="font-size: 12px">língua celta</span><span style="font-size: 12px">.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px"><br /> Após conhecer o histórico do <em>Halloween</em>, algumas dúvidas entram em questão:</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px"><strong>1 -</strong> Se o <em>Halloween</em> nada tinha a ver com o dia das bruxas e tinha o nome de <em>Samhain</em>, como ele passou a se chamar <em>Halloween</em>?</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Existem algumas hipóteses destacadas pelo site <em>Wikipedia</em>:</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">a) O <em>Samhain</em> era comemorado na noite de 31 de outubro para 1&ordm; de novembro, ou seja, a noite sagrada para os celtas ocorria neste período. Em inglês, &ldquo;noite sagrada&rdquo; significa <em>hallow evening</em>, mas com o tempo este termo sofrendo alterações, até se chegar ao nome atual: <em>Hallow Evening</em> -&gt; <em>Hallowe`en</em> -&gt; <strong><em>Halloween</em></strong>.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">b) Outra hipótese é que a Igreja Católica tenha tentado eliminar a festa pagã do <em>Samhain</em> instituindo restrições na véspera do Dia de Todos os Santos. Este dia seria conhecido nos países de língua inglesa como <strong>All Hallows` Eve</strong>.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px"><strong>2 -</strong> Como um festival que marcava o fim do verão, passou a ser relacionado com bruxas e afins?</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Segundo o site do <em>Wikipedia</em>, a relação da comemoração do <em>Halloween</em> com as bruxas propriamente ditas, teria começado na Idade Média no seguimento das perseguições incitadas por líderes políticos e religiosos, sendo conduzidos julgamentos pela Inquisição, com o intuito de condenar os homens ou mulheres que fossem considerados curandeiros e/ou pagãos. Todos os que fossem alvo de tal suspeita eram designados por bruxos ou bruxas, com elevado sentido negativo e pejorativo, devendo ser julgados pelo tribunal do Santo Ofício e, na maioria das vezes, queimados na fogueira nos designados autos-de-fé.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Essa designação se perpetuou e a comemoração do <em>Halloween</em>, levada até aos Estados Unidos pelos emigrantes irlandeses (povo de etnia e cultura celta) no Século XIX, ficou assim conhecida como &quot;Dia das Bruxas&quot;, dando origem ao dia da bruxa ficando assim como uma lenda histórica.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Os cristãos mais fiéis reprovam as comemorações. Os católicos consideram o <em>Halloween </em>inclusive como uma afronta ao Dia de Todos-os-Santos, portanto resistem ao evento relacionando-o aos modismos provenientes da cultura consumista norte-americana.</span></p> Marcadores de pagina "Pascoa" 2009-08-11T18:49:37-03:00 2009-08-11T18:49:37-03:00 https://ingles.eu.org/dicas-para-professores-de-ingles/100-datas-comemorativas/381-marcadores-de-pagina-qpascoaq Samuel S Santos <h3 style="text-align: center; color: red"><span style="font-size: 12px">Marcadores de paginas</span></h3> <p style="text-align: justify"><span style="font-size: 12px">Os marcadores tem mensagens em Inglês e podem ser usados para que os alunos dêem uns aos outros com mensagens atrás escritas por eles em inglês.

Candles are lit during many Easter celebrations, especially the vigil and midnight services before Easter Sunday. Many churches extinguish candles on their altars on Good Friday to show that Jesus' light has gone out. In Roman Catholic churches, the special paschal candle is lit on Easter Sunday next to the main altar. The candle symbolizes Jesus' return to life. The candle is often lit during the next 40 days, until it is put out on Ascension Day. The Paschal candle is a special candle for Easter.

The crucifix is a cross with an image of Jesus' body hanging from it and symbolizes the sacrifice Jesus made for the humanity. An empty cross-one without the figure of Christ crucified--reminds Christians of Jesus' victory over death and the new life and hope this victory brings to believers.&nbsp;The Christian perception of the cross as a sign of redemption stems from the belief that Jesus' Crucifixion played a central role in redeeming humanity from its sins. When Jesus was crucified, the cross became a symbol of suffering. Then with the resurrection of Christ, the Christians saw it as a symbol of Jesus' victory over death. During the first 300 years after Christ's death, Christians feared persecution by the hostile Roman government and rarely displayed the cross in public. In the 300's, the Romans began to tolerate Christianity, and crosses were widely displayed. In A.D. 325, Constantine at the Council of Nicaea issued a decree that the Cross is the official symbol of Christianity. On Good Friday, the cross is covered with black, a color for mourning for the death of Jesus. Before the Easter Sunday, the draping in black is removed and the cross is rather decorated with flowers to honor the Jesus' return to life</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Easter Bunny</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">The Easter bunny is one of the most adorable Easter symbols. During Easter children eagerly wait for this furry benefactor to bring them colored eggs and gift baskets filled with chocolates. The legend of Easter bunny has given birth to popular games such as Easter egg hunt. During Easter gift galleries are swamped with cute stuffed bunny toys and confectionary shops do brisk business by selling chocolate bunny rabbit cookies and cakes. The origin of the Easter bunny can be traced to ancient pagan celebrations which regarded rabbits as symbols of fertility because these animals give birth to multiple offspring at a time. Since rabbits were fertility icons, these became symbols of the rising fertility of the earth at the Vernal Equinox. Ancient tribes celebrated the beginning of spring at the vernal equinox by blessing seeds for growth and placing colored eggs on an altar. Easter bunny became a part of modern day Easter celebration in Germany, where tales were told of an &quot;Easter hare&quot; who laid eggs for children to find. German immigrants to America -- particularly Pennsylvania -- brought the tradition with them and spread it to a wider public. They also baked cakes for Easter in the shape of hares, and may have pioneered the practice of making chocolate bunnies and eggs. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Easter Lily</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Among the multitude of spring flowers, the Easter white lily is the traditional Easter flower and is considered the symbol of the resurrection of Christ. The large, pure white blooms of the Easter Lilies are symptomatic of the pure new life that comes through the Resurrection of Jesus. Today, on Easter morning, churches are bedecked with white lilies in remembrance of the loved ones, who passed away.&nbsp;The white Easter lily also symbolizes purity. Artists for centuries have portrayed the angel Gabriel coming to the Virgin Mary with a spray of lilies in his hand, to announce that she is to be the mother of the Christ child. Roman mythology associates the white lily with Juno, the queen of gods. It is said that when queen Juno was feeding her baby son Hercules, a portion of the milk fell on to the earth, leading to the blooming of gorgeous white lilies. <br /> <br /> The lovely white Madonna lily was used for years as the Easter lily. It often failed to bloom in time for Easter, however, and so Bermuda lilies were substituted. They have six-part flowers (three petals and three sepals colored alike) and usually six stamens.<br /> <br /> Bermuda lilies are called so because they were first found in Bermuda by Ms Thomas P Sargent in the 1880s. Since these lilies bloom naturally in springtime, she brought its bulbs in back home in Philadelphia. There, a nursery man, called William Harris, made it popular among other florists. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Hot Cross Buns</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Hot cross buns stand out from other Easter delicacies for their religious flavor. A prominent Easter icon, hot cross bun is called so because of the icing cross on the top of the bun, which reminds people of the crucifixion of Jesus. Hot cross buns were first baked in England to be served as the traditional Good Friday breakfast. Nowadays, they are served throughout the Easter season. Like so many other Easter symbols, hot cross buns also owe their origin to ancient pagan traditions. They are not a truly Christian tradition, even though there is a Cross on the bun. Hot cross buns are regarded by many as the outgrowth of the ancient pagan sacramental cakes eaten by Anglo-Saxons in honor of their goddess &quot;Eastore.&quot; Besides being culinary delights, hot cross buns are believed to be protecting people from evil spirits and having a magical power of curing. Which is why, in ancient times, people used to hang these buns on the kitchen ceilings. The popularity of hot cross buns has given birth to a popular song of the same name. Street vendors used to sing a song when they went around selling their hot cross buns. This song, &quot;Hot Cross Buns&quot;, is now a favorite nursery rhyme for children. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: auto 0cm"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b><span style="color: windowtext"><br /> &nbsp;Easter Lamb</span></b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Apart from being a traditional delicacy in the Easter dinner, the Easter lamb is also a part of religious symbolism. A prominent Easter symbol in central and eastern European countries, the Easter lamb represents Jesus and relates His death to that of the lamb sacrificed on the first Passover. Christians traditionally refer to Jesus as &quot;the Lamb of God.&quot; The Easter lamb, draped with the flag of victory, may be seen in pictures and images in the homes of every central and eastern European family.&nbsp;Along with smoked ham, lamb has been an integral part of the Easter feast. In many homes, a lamb-shaped cake decorates the table. Roast lamb has been the main feature of the Pope's Easter dinner for many centuries. After the tenth century, in place of the whole lamb, smaller pieces of meat were used. In some Benedictine monasteries, however, even today whole lambs are still blessed with the ancient prayers.&nbsp;The ancient tradition of the Pasch lamb inspired among the Christians the use of lamb meat as a popular food at Easter time. Nowadays, however, little figures of a lamb made of butter, pastry, or sugar have been substituted for the meat, forming Easter table centerpieces. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>Easter Eggs</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Perhaps the most venerable symbol of Easter, Easter eggs have long been acknowledged as a symbol of continuing life and fertility since pre-Christian spring celebrations. Given as springtime gifts by the ancient Greeks, Persians, and Chinese at their spring festivals, the egg also appears in pagan mythology, where the Heaven and Earth were thought to have been formed from two halves of an egg. Eggs become a prominent Easter icon as they were perceived to be the symbol of Jesus' Resurrection. Even as early as the Middle Ages, eggs were colored to be given as gifts at Easter. Forbidden during the solemn fast of Lent, eggs were reintroduced on Easter Sunday, both as part of the feasting and as gifts for family, friends, and servants. Besides their religious connotations, Easter eggs have given rise to many exotic traditions and practices. The coloring of eggs is an established art, and eggs are often dyed, painted, and otherwise decorated. Various Easter games have imbibed the use of eggs: parents would hide eggs for children to find, and children would roll eggs down hills. These practices live on in Easter egg hunts and egg rolls. &nbsp;The most elaborate Easter egg traditions appear to have emerged in Eastern Europe. In Poland and Ukraine, eggs were often painted silver and gold. Pysanky eggs were created by carefully applying wax in patterns to an egg. The egg was then dyed, wax would be reapplied in spots to preserve that color, and the egg was boiled again in other shades. The result was a multi-color striped or patterned egg. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: auto 0cm"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center; margin: auto 0cm"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;<a href="http://www.queroaprenderingles.co.cc/files/Eastersymbols.pdf">Easter symbols</a></b></span></div> <h3 style="text-align: center; color: red"><span style="font-size: 12px">Símbolos da Páscoa</span></h3> <p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: 12px">Easter symbols</span></p> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>Que tal informar-se mais sobre todos os símbolos da Páscoa e trabalhar esse texto em Inglês com seus alunos, uma boa dia é dividir a sala em grupos para que cada grupo traduza e explique para toda sala o que traduziu.</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="color: #003300"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>Obs:</b></span></span><span style="font-size: 12px"><b> Abaixo você tem a versão para download do texto </b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt">&nbsp;</div> <div style="text-align: center; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>Easter Symbols</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Easter Candles</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Easter candles are lit in churches to celebrate the resurrection of Lord Jesus.

An empty cross-one without the figure of Christ crucified--reminds Christians of Jesus' victory over death and the new life and hope this victory brings to believers.&nbsp;The Christian perception of the cross as a sign of redemption stems from the belief that Jesus' Crucifixion played a central role in redeeming humanity from its sins. When Jesus was crucified, the cross became a symbol of suffering. Then with the resurrection of Christ, the Christians saw it as a symbol of Jesus' victory over death. During the first 300 years after Christ's death, Christians feared persecution by the hostile Roman government and rarely displayed the cross in public. In the 300's, the Romans began to tolerate Christianity, and crosses were widely displayed. In A.D. 325, Constantine at the Council of Nicaea issued a decree that the Cross is the official symbol of Christianity. On Good Friday, the cross is covered with black, a color for mourning for the death of Jesus. Before the Easter Sunday, the draping in black is removed and the cross is rather decorated with flowers to honor the Jesus' return to life</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Easter Bunny</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">The Easter bunny is one of the most adorable Easter symbols. During Easter children eagerly wait for this furry benefactor to bring them colored eggs and gift baskets filled with chocolates. The legend of Easter bunny has given birth to popular games such as Easter egg hunt. During Easter gift galleries are swamped with cute stuffed bunny toys and confectionary shops do brisk business by selling chocolate bunny rabbit cookies and cakes. The origin of the Easter bunny can be traced to ancient pagan celebrations which regarded rabbits as symbols of fertility because these animals give birth to multiple offspring at a time. Since rabbits were fertility icons, these became symbols of the rising fertility of the earth at the Vernal Equinox. Ancient tribes celebrated the beginning of spring at the vernal equinox by blessing seeds for growth and placing colored eggs on an altar. Easter bunny became a part of modern day Easter celebration in Germany, where tales were told of an &quot;Easter hare&quot; who laid eggs for children to find. German immigrants to America -- particularly Pennsylvania -- brought the tradition with them and spread it to a wider public. They also baked cakes for Easter in the shape of hares, and may have pioneered the practice of making chocolate bunnies and eggs. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Easter Lily</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Among the multitude of spring flowers, the Easter white lily is the traditional Easter flower and is considered the symbol of the resurrection of Christ. The large, pure white blooms of the Easter Lilies are symptomatic of the pure new life that comes through the Resurrection of Jesus. Today, on Easter morning, churches are bedecked with white lilies in remembrance of the loved ones, who passed away.&nbsp;The white Easter lily also symbolizes purity. Artists for centuries have portrayed the angel Gabriel coming to the Virgin Mary with a spray of lilies in his hand, to announce that she is to be the mother of the Christ child. Roman mythology associates the white lily with Juno, the queen of gods. It is said that when queen Juno was feeding her baby son Hercules, a portion of the milk fell on to the earth, leading to the blooming of gorgeous white lilies. <br /> <br /> The lovely white Madonna lily was used for years as the Easter lily. It often failed to bloom in time for Easter, however, and so Bermuda lilies were substituted. They have six-part flowers (three petals and three sepals colored alike) and usually six stamens.<br /> <br /> Bermuda lilies are called so because they were first found in Bermuda by Ms Thomas P Sargent in the 1880s. Since these lilies bloom naturally in springtime, she brought its bulbs in back home in Philadelphia. There, a nursery man, called William Harris, made it popular among other florists. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;Hot Cross Buns</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Hot cross buns stand out from other Easter delicacies for their religious flavor. A prominent Easter icon, hot cross bun is called so because of the icing cross on the top of the bun, which reminds people of the crucifixion of Jesus. Hot cross buns were first baked in England to be served as the traditional Good Friday breakfast. Nowadays, they are served throughout the Easter season. Like so many other Easter symbols, hot cross buns also owe their origin to ancient pagan traditions. They are not a truly Christian tradition, even though there is a Cross on the bun. Hot cross buns are regarded by many as the outgrowth of the ancient pagan sacramental cakes eaten by Anglo-Saxons in honor of their goddess &quot;Eastore.&quot; Besides being culinary delights, hot cross buns are believed to be protecting people from evil spirits and having a magical power of curing. Which is why, in ancient times, people used to hang these buns on the kitchen ceilings. The popularity of hot cross buns has given birth to a popular song of the same name. Street vendors used to sing a song when they went around selling their hot cross buns. This song, &quot;Hot Cross Buns&quot;, is now a favorite nursery rhyme for children. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: auto 0cm"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b><span style="color: windowtext"><br /> &nbsp;Easter Lamb</span></b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Apart from being a traditional delicacy in the Easter dinner, the Easter lamb is also a part of religious symbolism. A prominent Easter symbol in central and eastern European countries, the Easter lamb represents Jesus and relates His death to that of the lamb sacrificed on the first Passover. Christians traditionally refer to Jesus as &quot;the Lamb of God.&quot; The Easter lamb, draped with the flag of victory, may be seen in pictures and images in the homes of every central and eastern European family.&nbsp;Along with smoked ham, lamb has been an integral part of the Easter feast. In many homes, a lamb-shaped cake decorates the table. Roast lamb has been the main feature of the Pope's Easter dinner for many centuries. After the tenth century, in place of the whole lamb, smaller pieces of meat were used. In some Benedictine monasteries, however, even today whole lambs are still blessed with the ancient prayers.&nbsp;The ancient tradition of the Pasch lamb inspired among the Christians the use of lamb meat as a popular food at Easter time. Nowadays, however, little figures of a lamb made of butter, pastry, or sugar have been substituted for the meat, forming Easter table centerpieces. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>Easter Eggs</b></span></div> <p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="250" align="right" style="width: 187.5pt"> <tbody style="text-align: justify"> </tbody> </table> </p> <div style="text-align: justify; line-height: 12pt"><span style="font-size: 12px">Perhaps the most venerable symbol of Easter, Easter eggs have long been acknowledged as a symbol of continuing life and fertility since pre-Christian spring celebrations. Given as springtime gifts by the ancient Greeks, Persians, and Chinese at their spring festivals, the egg also appears in pagan mythology, where the Heaven and Earth were thought to have been formed from two halves of an egg. Eggs become a prominent Easter icon as they were perceived to be the symbol of Jesus' Resurrection. Even as early as the Middle Ages, eggs were colored to be given as gifts at Easter. Forbidden during the solemn fast of Lent, eggs were reintroduced on Easter Sunday, both as part of the feasting and as gifts for family, friends, and servants. Besides their religious connotations, Easter eggs have given rise to many exotic traditions and practices. The coloring of eggs is an established art, and eggs are often dyed, painted, and otherwise decorated. Various Easter games have imbibed the use of eggs: parents would hide eggs for children to find, and children would roll eggs down hills. These practices live on in Easter egg hunts and egg rolls. &nbsp;The most elaborate Easter egg traditions appear to have emerged in Eastern Europe. In Poland and Ukraine, eggs were often painted silver and gold. Pysanky eggs were created by carefully applying wax in patterns to an egg. The egg was then dyed, wax would be reapplied in spots to preserve that color, and the egg was boiled again in other shades. The result was a multi-color striped or patterned egg. </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; margin: auto 0cm"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;</b></span></div> <div style="text-align: center; margin: auto 0cm"><span style="font-size: 12px"><b>&nbsp;<a href="http://www.queroaprenderingles.co.cc/files/Eastersymbols.pdf">Easter symbols</a></b></span></div> Como é celebrada a pascoa nos EUA?
