万圣节的传说【第一篇】

万圣节前夜就是"圣夜"的意思。而今天，万圣节前夜已经变成一年中最流行和最受欢迎的节日之一，许多玩家都以极大的热情来庆祝这一节日。

万圣节在10月31日，其实是赞美秋天的节日，就好像五朔节是赞美春天的节日一样。古代高卢、不列颠和爱尔兰的祭司——德鲁伊德有一个赞美秋天的盛大节日，从10月31日午夜开始，直至次日11月1日持续整整一天。他们认为，在那天晚上他们伟大的死神——萨曼会把那年死去人的鬼魂统统召来，这些恶鬼要受到托生为畜类的惩罚。当然，只要想到这种鬼魅的聚会，就足以令当时那些头脑简单的愚民胆战心谅的了。于是他们点起冲天的篝火，并严密监视这些恶鬼。

万圣节前夜到处有女巫和鬼魂的说法就是这么开始的。至今在欧洲某些与世隔绝的地区还有人相信这是真的。

如今在整个欧洲，人们都把万圣节前夜看作尽情玩闹、讲鬼故事和互相吓唬的好机会。于是人们不再把这节日仅仅用来赞美秋光，而是让它变成一场真正的“狂欢”。而脸谱化妆是万圣节传统节目之一。

Ⅲ。the origin of halloween

two thousand years ago, europe's catholic church on november 1 as the "world day saints" (all hallows day)。 "hallow" meaning that the saints. bc five hundred years since the legend, living in ireland, scotland

comical faces carved pumpkin jack portland and other places in the celtic (celts) moved forward this festive day, that is, 10 31. they think that the formal end of the day is the day of the summer, that is, the new year, the beginning of the harsh winter day. at that time people believed that the spirits of the enemy back in the day to find the former residence of the body in the living creatures, to regeneration, and this is the man to be reborn after death, the only hope. and the living death of the soul are afraid to come and take away life, so people put out the fire on this day, candlelight, so that the soul can not find the living dead, gets himself dressed as ghosts and goblins to scare away the dead souls. after the candle they will rekindle the fire to start the new year of life. tribal celtic legend was still in october 31 to pay homage to the dead kill the living customs.

to the 1st century ad, celtic tribes occupied the territory of the roman people have gradually accepted the halloween customs, but abolished the burning from the brutal practice of the living dead festival. romans and the celtic harvest festival celebrated with ceremony, wearing a scary mask, dressed up as animals or monsters, it is to get rid of their demons wandering around. this is most of the world today, people with weird dress, to celebrate the origin of halloween. the passage of time, the meaning of halloween has changed gradually, becoming an active happy, happy means into the mainstream. dead soul back to the world to find a substitute for argument has gradually been abandoned and forgotten. today, the symbol of halloween images, pictures such as witches, black cats, etc.， are friendly and cute and big funny face.

after the roman emperor constantine to christ, establish christianity as the state religion, then christianity has evolved into a real catholic. constantine ordered the country people have converted to christianity, the results did not repent of the pagans joined the church, brought in the various pagan style, including the dead festival, they have to maintain the festival as part of life.

as the church can not eliminate people's pagan custom, only the part of the customs and sanctified, in particular, died oct. 3 day festival. in the eighth century, pope set nov. 1 as all saints day (all saints' day)， to remember the martyrdom of the saints of all the history of the church. this date is october sayi the eve of all saints day. catholic church will allow people a feast day on october sayi, because nov. 1 is the holy day. later, all saint's day became all hallows day, the hallows are "holy" means october sayi day is halloween (all hallows evening)。 evening was later reduced to eve and een, the former is "on the eve of" means, which is short for evening, which means "night"， has become today's halloween, on behalf of death-day festival is the eve of halloween. chinese simply called the october 3 一日 halloween, in fact, that translated as "all souls day."

三、万圣节的起源

两千多年前，欧洲的天主教会把11月1日定为“天下圣徒之日” (allhallows day) 。“hallow” 即圣徒之意。传说自公元前五百年，居住在爱尔兰、苏格兰等地的凯尔特人 (celts) 把这节日往前移了一天，即10月31分页日。他们认为该日是夏天正式结束的日子，也就是新年伊始，严酷的冬季开始的一天。那时人们相信，故人的亡魂会在这一天回到故居地在活人身上找寻生灵，借此再生，而且这是人在死后能获得再生的唯一希望。而活着的人则惧怕死魂来夺生，于是人们就在这一天熄掉炉火、烛光，让死魂无法找寻活人，又把自己打扮成妖魔鬼怪把死人之魂灵吓走。之后，他们又会把火种烛光重新燃起，开始新的一年的生活。传说那时凯尔特人部落还有在10月 31日把活人杀死用以祭奠死人的习俗。

到了公元1世纪，占领了凯尔特部落领地的罗马人也渐渐接受了万圣节习俗，但从此废止了烧活人祭死人的野蛮做法。罗马人庆祝丰收的节日与凯尔特人仪式结合，戴着可怕的面具，打扮成动物或鬼怪，则是为了赶走在他们四周游荡的妖魔。这也就是今天全球大部分人以古灵精怪的打扮，来庆祝万圣节的由来。时间流逝，万圣节的意义逐渐起了变化，变得积极快乐起来，喜庆的意味成了主流。死魂找替身返世的说法也渐渐被摒弃和忘却。到了今天，象征万圣节的形象、图画如巫婆、黑猫等，大都有友善可爱和滑稽的脸。

罗马皇帝君士坦丁信主后，立基-督教为国教，当时的基-督教实际已演变成天主教。 君士坦丁下令全国人民都要皈依基-督教，结果没有悔改的异教徒加入了教会，把各样 异教作风带进来，包括死节，他们要维持这节日为生活的一部分。

由于教会无法消除民众的异教风俗，只有把部分风俗圣化，特别是十月三一日的死 节。在第八世纪，罗马教皇定十一月一日为万圣日(all saints’ day)，来记念教会史 上一切殉道的圣徒。这样，十月卅一日便是万圣日的前夕。天主教会容许民众在-十-月 卅一日守节，因为十一月一日是圣日。后来all saint’sday 变成all hallows day， 而hallows是“神圣”的意思，十月卅一日便是万圣夜(all hallows evening)。evening后来缩减为eve和een，前者是“前夕”的意思，后者是evening的 缩写，意即“夜晚”，便成为今天的halloween，代表死节是万圣日的前夕。华人索性把十月三一日称为万圣节，其实该译作“万灵节”。

Happy Halloween万圣节的由来 （中英文对照）2016-10-30 19:15 | #4楼

在西方国家，每年的10月31日，有个“halloween”，辞典解释为“the eve of all saints'day”，中文译作：“万圣节之夜”。万圣节是西方国家的传统节日。这一夜是一年中最“闹鬼”的一夜，所以也叫“鬼节”。

the origin of halloween

the legend of the origin of halloween, there are many versions, the most common view, that is before the birth of christ from the medieval western europe countries, including ireland, scotland and wales. this person called several of the medieval western europe druitt people. druitt in the november 1 new year, new year's eve, young people who set druid team, wearing all kinds of weird mask, carrying a carved radish good light (the late custom pumpkin light system, medieval western europe first there is no pumpkin)， they walk in the villages between. this was actually a kind of harvest celebration; also said to be "halloween"， the legend who died that year, the eve of halloween spirit will visit the world, said that people should be allowed to visit the ghost that the ghost of a successful harvest and to render a hearty welcome. all fire and lights, the one to frighten away the ghost, but also for the ghost light line, to guide their return.

central europe in the middle ages, there had been destroyed by the pagan history of christianity. however, before the ritual celebration of new year's eve never really eliminated, but in the form of witchcraft. this is why we are halloween, but are also left witches broom, black cat, spells and other marks.

译文：万圣节的由来

关于万圣节由来的传说有许多版本，最普遍的认为，那是源于基-督诞生前的古西欧国家，主要包括爱尔兰、苏格兰和威尔士。这几处的古西欧人叫德鲁伊特人。德鲁伊特的新年在十一月一日，新年前夜，德鲁伊特人让年轻人集队，戴着各种怪异面具，拎着刻好的萝卜灯（南瓜灯系后期习俗，古西欧最早没有南瓜），他们游走于村落间。这在当时实则为一种秋收的庆典；也有说是“鬼节”，传说当年死去的人，灵魂会在万圣节的前夜造访人世，据说人们应该让造访的鬼魂看到圆满的收成并对鬼魂呈现出丰盛的款待。所有篝火及灯火，一来为了吓走鬼魂，同时也为鬼魂照亮路线，引导其回归。

在中世纪的中欧，曾有过基-督教摧毁异教徒的历史。可是新年夜前的祭祀庆典从未真正消除，不过以巫术的形式出现。这也就是为什么我们现在的万圣节里，还留有巫婆的扫帚、黑猫、咒语等痕迹。

万圣节来历中英文介绍【第四篇】

halloween one story about jack, an irishman, who was not allowed into heaven because he was stingy with his money. so he was sent to hell. but down there he played tricks on the devil (satan), so he was kicked out of hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern. well, irish children made jacks lanterns on october 31st from a large potato or turnip, hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside. and irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village halloween festival that honored the druid god muck olla. the irish name for these lanterns was jack with the lantern or jack of the lantern, abbreviated as jack-o-lantern and now spelled jack-o-lantern. the traditional halloween you can read about in most books was just childrens fun night. halloween celebrations would start in october in every elementary school. children would make halloween decora

tions, all kinds of orange-paper jack-o-lanterns. and from black paper youd cut scary designs ---an evil witch with a pointed hat riding through the sky on a broomstick, maybe with black bats flying across the moon, and that meant bad luck. and of course black cats for more bad luck. sometimes a black cat would ride away into the sky on the back of the witchs broom. and on halloween night wed dress up in mom or dads old shoes and clothes, put on a mask, and be ready to go outside. the little kids (children younger than we were) had to go with their mothers, but we older ones went together to neighbors houses, ringing their doorbell and yelling, trick or treat! meaning, give us a treat (something to eat) or well play a trick on you! the people inside were supposed to come to the door and co*e to the door, or if someone chased us away? then wed play a trick on them, usually taking a piece of soap and make marks on their windows. .and afterwards

we would go home and count who got the most candy. one popular teen-agers halloween trick was to unroll a roll of toilet paper and throw it high into a tree again and again until the tree was all wrapped in the white paper. the paper would often stay in the tree for weeks until a heavy snow or rain washed it off. no real harm done, but it made a big mess of both the tree and the yard under it. one kind of halloween mischief.

关于万圣节有这样一个故事。是说有一个叫杰克的爱尔半兰人，因为他对钱特别的吝啬，就不允许他进入天堂，而被打入地狱。但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼撒旦，所以被踢出地狱，罚他提着灯笼永远在人世里行走。在十月三十一日爱尔兰的孩子们用土豆和罗卜制作杰克的灯笼，他们把中间挖掉、表面上打洞并在里边点上蜡烛。为村里庆祝督伊德神的万圣节，孩子们提着这种灯笼挨家挨户乞计食物这种灯笼的爱尔兰名字是拿灯笼的杰克或者杰克的灯笼，缩写为jack-o-lantern ?在拼写为jack-o-lantern。 现在你在大多数书里读到的万圣节只是孩子们开心*的夜晚。在小学校里，万圣节是每年十月份开始庆祝的。孩子们会制作万圣节的装饰品：各种各样桔红色的南瓜灯。你可以用黑色的纸做一个可怕的造形？一个骑在扫帚把上戴著尖尖帽子的女巫飞过天空，或者是黑蝙蝠飞过月亮。这些都代表恶运。当然黑猫代表运气更差。有时候会出现黑猫骑在女巫扫帚后面飞向天空的造形。在万圣节的晚上，我们都穿着爸爸妈妈的旧衣服和旧鞋子，戴上面具，打算外出。比我们小的孩子必须和他们的母亲一块出去，我们大一点的就一

起哄到领居家，按他们的门铃并大声喊道：恶作剧还是招待！意思是给我们吃的，要不我们就捉弄你。里边的人们应该出？评价我们的化装。 噢！这是鬼，那是女巫，这是个老太婆。 有时候他们会跟我们一起玩，假装被鬼或者女巫吓着了。但是他们通常会带一些糖果或者苹果放进我们的恶作剧还是招待的口袋里。、可是要是没人回答门铃或者是有人把我们赶开该怎么办呢？我们就捉弄他们，通常是拿一块肥皂把他们的玻璃涂得乱七八糟。然后我们回家，数数谁的糖果最多。还有一个典型的万圣节花招是把一卷手纸拉开，不停地往树上扔，直到树全被白纸裹起？。除非下大雪或大雨把纸冲掉，纸会一直呆在树上。这并不造成真正的伤害，只是把树和院子搞乱，一种万圣节的恶作剧。
