中秋节的来历英文版50【一】

The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, usually in October in Gregorian calendar.

每年农历八月十五日,是传统的中秋佳节。这时是一年秋季的中期,所以被称为中秋。

The festival has a long history. In ancient China, emperors

followed the rite of offering sacrifices to the sun in spring and to the moon in autumn. Historical books of the Zhou Dynasty had had the word "Mid-Autumn". Later aristocrats and literary figures helped expand the ceremony to common people. They enjoyed the full, bright moon on that day, worshipped it and expressed their thoughts and feelings under it. By the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the Mid-Autumn Festival had been fixed, which became even grander in the Song Dynasty (960-1279). In the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, it grew to be a major festival of China.

中秋节有悠久的历史,和其它传统节日一样,也是慢慢发展形成的,古代帝王有春天祭日,秋天祭月的礼制,早在《周礼》一书中,已有“中秋”一词的记载。后来贵族和文人学士也仿效起来,在中秋时节,对着天上又亮又圆一轮皓月,观赏祭拜,寄托情怀,这种习俗就这样传到民间,形成一个传统的活动,一直到了唐代,这种祭月的风俗更为人们重视,中秋节才成为固定的`节日,《唐书·太宗记》记载有“八月十五中秋节”,这个节日盛行于宋朝,至明清时,已与元旦齐名,成为我国的主要节日之一。

Folklore about the origin of the festival go like this: In

remote antiquity, there were ten suns rising in the sky, which scorched all crops and drove people into dire poverty. A hero named Hou Yi was much worried about this, he ascended to the top of the Kunlun Mountain and, directing his superhuman strength to full extent, drew his extraordinary bow and shot down the nine superfluous suns one after

another. He also ordered the last sun to rise and set according to time. For this reason, he was respected and loved by the people and lots of people of ideals and integrity came to him to learn martial arts from him. A person named Peng Meng lurked in them.


相传,远古时候天上有十日同时出现,晒得庄稼枯死,民不聊生,一个名叫后羿的英雄,力大无穷,他同情受苦的百姓,登上昆仑山顶,运足神力,拉开神弓,一气射下九个多太阳,并严令最后一个太阳按时起落,为民造福。后羿因此受到百姓的尊敬和爱戴,不少志士慕名前来投师学艺,心术不正的蓬蒙也混了进来。

节日起源【二】

“中秋”一词,最早见于《周礼》。根据我国古代历法,农历八月十五日,在一年秋季的八月中旬,故嫦娥传说

称“中秋”。一年有四季,每季又分孟、仲、季三部分,因此秋中第二月叫仲秋,到唐朝初年,中秋节才成为固定的节日。《新唐书·卷十五志第五·礼乐五》载“其中春、中秋释奠于文宣王、武成王”,及“开元十九年,始置太公尚父庙,以留侯张良配。中春、中秋上戊祭之,牲、乐之制如文”。中秋节也称为仲秋节,团圆节,八月节等,也是仅次于春节的第二大传统节日。中秋节的盛行始于宋朝,至明清时,已与元旦齐名,成为我国的主要节日之一。

中秋月饼【三】

中秋节美食首推月饼,其起源说法多种。一说元代末年,江苏泰州的反元起义领袖张士诚(或说是朱元璋的谋士刘伯温)利用中秋民众互赠圆饼之际,在饼中夹带“八月十五夜杀鞑子”的字条,大家见了饼中字条,一传十,十传百,如约于这天夜里一起手刃无恶不作的“鞑子”(元兵),过后家家吃饼庆祝起义胜利,并正式称中秋节的圆饼为月饼。

在后来很长历史时期,甚至在上世纪末,许多月饼上还贴有一方小纸片!只可惜,近年所产月饼已不见小纸片踪影,月饼所含代代相传的“文化密码”荡然无存。

另有一说为,明洪武初年,大将徐达攻下元朝残余势力盘踞的元大都北京,捷报传到首都南京,正在下棋的明太祖朱元璋欣喜若狂,即传谕中秋节普天同庆,并将当初反元大起义时传递信息的月饼赏赐臣民。

月饼从此成为中秋节“法定”的食品,非食不可了。民-国年间,南京的月饼市场为广()式、苏()式和本地()产“三分天下”,广式的馅料以火腿、枣泥、椰蓉等为主,厂商以冠生园为首,其次有大三元、康乐园等。它们以声势浩大的广告战为手段,在报上刊登巨幅广告,于橱窗布置霓虹灯。

著名的苏帮厂商有小苏州、太平村、稻香村,在广告制作上颇具海派特色,爱搞噱头;苏式月饼质量不逊于广帮,价格则较之便宜,故而节后盘点,财源滚滚胜于广帮。


广帮的顾客是达官贵人、豪商巨贾;苏帮的顾客多为小康人家;而广大普通市民则乐趋本帮,虽然其馅料不过是荤五仁、素椒盐两种,全市100多家本帮点心铺的店容店貌亦老气横秋,既不布置橱窗,更不打广告,但都靠质量和诚信及价廉赢得顾客盈门,市场份额相对广帮、苏帮而言有过之而无不及。
