愚人节的来历[ 2007-03-31 17:46 ]
马上就要愚人节了。关于这个节日的来源有各种不同的说法,有人说与一群不愿接受公历纪年的法国保守者有关;也有人说它来源于纪念丰收女神的女儿被诱拐到地狱;还有人说,这个节日始于英国一个名叫“愚人村”的天才村民;另一些说法则认为春天的天气变化无常,因此人们在春分前后可以选择某一日颠倒乾坤,以荒诞的闹剧来迎接春神的到来……以下关于“愚人节”的五种传说,其趣味各有千秋,至于哪种更为真实全凭您的亮眼一辨真伪喽! ?

The fruitless search of Ceres for her daughter was commemmorated during the Roman festival of Cerealia and believed by some to have been the mythological antecedent of the fools errands popular on April 1st.
