Beschrijving

Bol Christmas feels ancient, familiar, and almost timeless. Yet many of the traditions we recognize today were shaped across centuries, cultures, religions, migrations, and changing ways of life. The Christmas We Inherited explores the history behind December 25, the Nativity, Saturnalia and Sol Invictus, the Magi, Christmas trees and Yule, carols, Santa Claus, gift-giving, festive foods, Dickens, advertising, film, and the modern family Christmas. Rather than reducing the holiday to a single origin, María Cristina Galo separates documented history from hypothesis, legend, tradition, and popular myth. The result is an accessible journey through the many layers that came together to create the Christmas we know today. A book for readers curious not only about where Christmas traditions came from, but why they endured.
