節日、風俗習慣






Triumph of Flora by Tiepolo (ca. 1743), a scene based on Ovid's description of the Floralia [1]
福羅拉麗亞節(Floralia)是古羅馬的節日，用於奉獻給佛羅拉女神。在四月底到五月初舉行，象徵生命循環的更新。最顯著的特徵有舞蹈、敬酒和大量花卉。

問：這跟Flower  Day有何關係？(德奧等國的慈善活動.....)
In ancient Roman religion, the Floralia was a festival in honor of the goddess Flora, held April 27 during the Republican era, or April 28 on the Julian calendar. In Latin, the festival was known as the Ludi Florae, the Games (ludi) of Flora. Under the Empire, the games lasted for six days.[3]
The festival had a licentious, pleasure-seeking atmosphere. In contrast to festivals based on Rome's archaic patrician religion, the games of Flora had a plebeian character.[4]

Sep. 24：Euripides, Horace Walpole, Pablo Neruda

Horatio Walpole, 4th Earl of Orford, also known as Horace Walpole, was an English art historian, man of letters, antiquarian and Whig politician.
