Description
The book Easter Holidays a Century Ago by the well-known folklorist and artist Kamila Skopová (1944) loosely follows one of the most successful titles from Akropolis publishing in recent years – Christmas Holidays a Century Ago. The author, in a characteristically kind and readable style, discusses not only recipes that should become part of the spring kitchen but also various customs and rituals that are inseparably linked to the days of the awakening sun. From the text, which the author accompanies with her own illustrations, readers will learn, among other things, why Easter is considered a holiday of fertility and life, the significance of traditional Easter symbols – pomlázka, decorated eggs, and kraslice – and why Easter is 'always different.'
