Scoprire Halloween significa andare oltre l'immaginario moderno di maschere, zucche e travestimenti, per risalire alle sue origini più antiche e profonde.
Questa festa, oggi diffusa in tutto il mondo, affonda le proprie radici nel Samhain celtico: il momento dell'anno in cui il ciclo della natura si chiudeva e il confine tra i mondi diventava più sottile. All'interno scoprirai: - le origini di Halloween e il legame con il Samhain celtico- il significato autentico della notte di Halloween
- i simboli più noti, zucche, fuochi, maschere e la loro origine
- l'incontro tra tradizioni pagane e cristiane nel Medioevo
- la diffusione della festa dall'Europa all'America e ritorno
- le tradizioni italiane legate al culto dei defunti Dalle radici antiche alle trasformazioni moderne, Halloween emerge come una festa di passaggio, memoria e trasformazione, molto più complessa di quanto l'immaginario contemporaneo suggerisca. Non un libro horror, ma un saggio divulgativo che restituisce alla festa il suo significato culturale e simbolico più autentico. Un volume della collana Tradizioni & Folklore dedicato a chi desidera comprendere le origini, il significato e l'evoluzione delle grandi ricorrenze della cultura popolare.
