元宵节的由来英语介绍
The Lantern Festival (元宵节) is the last day of the Chinese New Year celebration. This day is for the last moment for setting off fireworks, the last excuse for eating a big feast and the last chance for family getting together before the “年” celebrations are over. (Latern Festival is also a traditional time of celebration for foreigners who live in China).
The Lantern Festival, the 15th of the first month of the lunar calendar, is the first full moon of the year. Celebrations and traditions on this day date back to the Western Han Dynasty.
Traditions for this festival: as the name indicates, hanging and looking at lanterns is the main tradition. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are displayed on trees, or along river banks.
Parents often take their children to Lantern Fairs and sometimes lucky kids even get a mini toy lantern.
Another tradition is guessing lantern riddles. These are riddles that are hung on lanterns for people to shoot down and solve. The riddles are usually short, wise, and sometimes humorous. The answer to a riddle can be a Chinese character, a famous person's name, a place name or a proverb. This tradition has become a popular game with serious staying power even as social development changes other traditions.
Other than that, the most important thing to do today is to eat sweet dumplings. In northern China, sweet dumplings made of glutinous rice flour are called “元宵” while in southern part they are called “汤圆”. Typical sweet dumplings are filled with black sesame sauce, sweetened bean paste, or hawthorn. Making “元宵” today is like a game or an activity, so it's seldom done without a reason and a group of friends or family present to help out.
元宵节的起源介绍
元宵节是中国的传统节日,早在2000多年前的秦朝就有了。据资料与民俗传说,正月十五在西汉已经受到重视,汉武帝正月上辛夜在甘泉宫祭祀“太一”的活动,(太一:主宰宇宙一切的神),被后人视作正月十五祭祀天神的先声。
元宵,原意为“上元节的晚上”,因正月十五“上元节”主要活动是晚上的吃汤圆赏月,后来节日名称演化为“元宵节”。元宵之夜,大街小巷张灯结彩,人们赏灯,猜灯谜,吃元宵,将从除夕开始延续的庆祝活动推向又一个高潮,成为世代相沿的习俗。元宵在早期节庆形成过程之时,只称正月十五日、正月半或月望,隋以后称元夕或元夜。唐初受了道教的影响,又称上元,唐末才偶称元宵。但自宋以后也称灯夕。到了清朝,就另称灯节。在国外,元宵也以The Lantern Festival而为人所知。
纪念平吕
传说元宵节是汉文帝时为纪念“平吕”而设。汉高祖刘邦死后,吕后之子刘盈登基为汉惠帝。惠帝生性懦弱,优柔寡断,大权渐渐落在吕后手中.汉惠帝病死后吕后独揽朝政把刘氏天下变成了吕氏天下,朝中老臣,刘氏宗室深感愤慨,但都惧怕吕后残暴而敢怒不敢言。
吕后病死后,诸吕惶惶不安害怕遭到伤害和排挤。于是,在上将军吕禄家中秘密集合,共谋作乱之事,以便彻底夺取刘氏江山。此事传至刘氏宗室齐王刘襄耳中,刘襄为保刘氏江山,决定起兵讨伐诸吕随后与开国老臣周勃,陈平取得联系,设计解除了吕禄,“诸吕之乱”终于被彻底平定.
平乱之后,众臣拥立刘邦的第二个儿子刘恒登基,称汉文帝.文帝深感太平盛世来之不易,便把平息“诸吕之乱”的正月十五,定为与民同乐日,京城里家家张灯结彩,以示庆祝。从此,正月十五便成了一个普天同庆的民间节日——“闹元宵”。
汉武帝时,“太一神”的祭祀活动定在正月十五。(太一:主宰宇宙一切之神)。司马迁创建“太初历”时,就已将元宵节确定为重大节日。
火把节
元宵节是中国自古的传统节日,元宵赏灯始于上古民众在乡间田野持火把驱赶虫兽,希望减轻虫害,祈祷获得好收成。直到今天,中国西南一些地区的人们还在正月十五用芦柴或树枝做成火把,成群结队高举火把在田头或晒谷场跳舞。隋、唐、宋以来,更是盛极一时。参加歌舞者足达数万,从昏达旦,至晦而罢。当随着社会和时代的变迁,元宵节的风俗习惯早已有了较大的变化,但至今仍是中国民间传统节日。
“三元说”
元宵燃灯的习俗起源于道教的“三元说”:上元,含有新的一年第一次月圆之夜的意思。上元节的由来,《岁时杂记》记载说,这是因循道教的陈规。道教曾把一年中的正月十五称为上元节,七月十五为中元节,十月十五为下元节,合称“三元”。汉末道教的重要派别五斗米道崇奉的神为天官、地官、水官,说天官赐福,地官赦罪,水官解厄,并以三元配三官,说上元天官正月十五日生,中元地官七月十五日生,下元水官十月十五日生。这样,正月十五日就被称为上元节。南宋吴自牧在《梦粱录》中说:“正月十五日元夕节,乃上元天官赐福之辰。”故上元节要燃灯。
