EASTER
Origen of the party:
The Easter Triduum expression applied to the annual feasts of the Passion
and Resurrection, is relatively recent , as it does not go back beyond the
thirties of our century ; but since the late fourth century St. Ambrose spoke
of a Triduum Sacrum to refer to the stages of the paschal mystery of Christ ,
for three days, et passus est, et quievit et resurrexit .
Dazzled by the historical reality of the death of Christ , the early Church
felt the need to celebrate liturgically this salvific event , through a
memorial rite where , in obedience to the express command of the Lord,
sacramentally renew his sacrifice.
Thus , during the early stages of the life of the Church , the Lord's
Passover cyclically commemorated , from the eucharistic assembly convened the
first day of the week , day of the Lord's resurrection ( dominicus dies ) or
Sunday.
Food:
Gastronomy of Easter is for all culinary customs and all foods allowed during
the holy period of Christianity and often pass from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday,
from the liturgical point of view. Each country (with some representation or Christian
group) usually have a set of dishes, or preparations, characteristic of this date generally
not usually Carnal content due to abstinence observed during this periodo.La meat is main
object of abstinence, It covers both red meat (beef, veal, lamb) as white meat (goat, lamb, pork)
and hunting.
