Maybe there are as many Valentines in the world as there are interpretations of the origins of Valentine's Day.
情人节,又叫圣瓦伦丁节或圣华伦泰节,即每年的2月14 日,是西方的传统节日之一。男女在这一天互送巧克力、 贺卡和玫瑰花,用以表达爱意或友好,现已成为欧美各国青年人喜爱的节日。大概这世上有多少情人就有多少关于情人节来历的诠释吧。
㈤ 情人节的来历(要中英文结合的)
情人节,又叫圣瓦伦丁节或圣华伦泰节(St. Valentine's Day),即每年的2月14日,是西方的传统节日之一。男女在这一天互送巧克力、贺卡和花,用以表达爱意或友好。
关于情人节的起源,大致有2种不同说法:
说法一:
公元3世纪,罗马帝国皇帝克劳迪乌斯二世在首都罗马宣布废弃所有的婚姻承诺,当时是出于战争的考虑,使更多无所牵挂的男人可以走上争战的疆场。一名叫瓦仑廷(Sanctus Valentinus)的神父没有遵照这个旨意而继续为相爱的年轻人举行教堂婚礼。事情被告发后,瓦仑廷神父先是被鞭打,然后被石头掷打,最后在公元270年2月14日这天被送上了绞架被绞死。14世纪以后,人们就开始纪念这个日子。现在,中文译为“情人节”的这个日子,在西方国家里就被称为Valentine's Day,用以纪念那位为情人做主而牺牲的神父。
与此相关的其他传说,包括这位神父帮助天主教徒从罗马监狱里逃脱而被处死。
在这个神父在监狱里时,据说他送出了第一个“情人节”祝福。据说他爱上了曾来监狱看望他,狱长失明的女儿亚斯得莉斯,并奇迹地治好了她的眼睛,使之重见光明。在他临刑前,给女孩一封信,署名“from your Valentine”(这个表达现在还在使用)。尽管这些传说不真切,但是却表达了他的富有同情心、英雄气概、以及最重要的浪漫主义的人格。
说法二:
来源于古罗马的牧神节(Lupercalia Festival)
这个说法是基督教会庆祝这一天是为了把古罗马的牧神节(每年的2月15日庆祝,为了保佑人、田、牲畜的生产力)基督教化。在古罗马,2月春天的开始,被认为是纯洁的。按照一定的仪式打扫房屋,然后把盐水和一种小麦洒遍房间。
牧神节,是为了庆祝罗马的农神Faunus 和罗马的奠基人Romulus和Remus。这个节日开始时,Luperci的成员(也就是罗马祭司的一种)会聚集在一个神圣的山洞里。这个山洞被认为是还是婴儿的Romulus和Remus待过的地方。在这个洞里,他们由一头母狼,lupa,照料。祭司们会牺牲一头羊,为了生殖;一只狗,为了纯洁。
然后男孩子会把羊的皮撕成小条,蘸上神圣的血后,跑到街上用它轻轻的抽打女人和田里的庄稼。罗马的女人不仅不会害怕,反而会乐意被羊皮条接触,因为据说这样她们在这一年里就会生殖力旺盛。后来,根据传说,这个城市所有的女人会把自己的名字放到一个花瓶里。单身汉们会从里面选一个。这样这一年里,他们就是一对。通常他们会结婚。
教皇在大约公元498年宣布2月14日是情人节。罗马人的这种婚配方式被基督教徒认为是不合法的。中世纪时,在英国和法国,通常认为2月14日是鸟交配的季节。因此就把此日增加了一个内容,那就是它应该是一个浪漫的日子。最早的情人节礼物是奥尔良的公爵,查理斯在伦敦塔狱中写给他妻子的诗。因为他在Agincourt战役中被俘虏了。现在这个写于1415年的祝福被收藏在伦敦的大英博物馆。几年以后,英皇亨利五世雇John Lydgate写了一首曲子给Catherine of Valois作为情人节礼物。
Saint Valentine's Day or Valentine's Day is on February 14. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other; sending Valentine's cards or candy. It is very common to present flowers on Valentine's Day. The holiday is named after two men, both Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished.
The day is most closely associated with the mutual exchange of love notes in the form of "valentines." Modern Valentine symbols include the heart-shaped outline and the figure of the winged Cupid. Since the 19th century, handwritten notes have largely given way to mass-proced greeting cards. The U.S. Greeting Card Association estimates that approximately one billion valentines are sent each year worldwide, making the day the second largest card-sending holiday of the year behind Christmas. The association estimates that women purchase approximately 85 percent of all valentines.[1]
In the United States, the marketing of Valentine's Day has tagged it as a "Hallmark holiday." A recent trend has been to refer to February 14 as Singles Awareness Day.
At least three early Christian Roman martyrs named Valentinus are known (see Saint Valentine for more details). In the two most prominent Valentinus traditions, represented by late fictionalized acta that were both included in Bede, the martyrs were venerated on the same day, February 14, though the years, as they represent two traditions, varied according to the source.[2] An overview of attested traditions relevant to the holiday is presented below, with the legends about Valentine himself discussed in the end.
[edit] February fertility festivals
It has been hypothesised [specify][citation needed] that Graeco-Roman holidays devoted to fertility and love might be related to St Valentine's Day, since there is some correspondence between the time when they were celebrated.
On the ancient Athenian calendar, the period between mid-January and mid-February was the month of Gamelion, dedicated to the sacred marriage of Zeus and Hera.
In Ancient Rome, February 15 was Lupercalia. Plutarch wrote:
Lupercalia, of which many write that it was anciently celebrated by shepherds, and has also some connection with the Arcadian Lycaea. At this time many of the noble youths and of the magistrates run up and down through the city naked, for sport and laughter striking those they meet with shaggy thongs. And many women of rank also purposely get in their way, and like children at school present their hands to be struck, believing that the pregnant will thus be helped in delivery, and the barren to pregnancy.[5]
The word Lupercalia comes from lupus, or wolf, so the holiday may be connected with the legendary wolf that suckled Romulus and Remus. Priests of this cult, luperci would travel to the lupercal, the cave where the she-wolf who reared Romulus and Remus allegedly lived, and sacrifice animals (two goats and a dog). The blood would then be scattered in the streets, to bring fertility and keep the wolves away from the fields. [6] Lupercalia was a festival local to the city of Rome. The more general Festival of Juno Februa, meaning "Juno the purifier "or "the chaste Juno," was celebrated on February 13-14. Pope Gelasius I (492-496) abolished Lupercalia. Some historians [specify][citation needed] argue that Candlemas (then held on February 14, later moved to February 2) was promoted as its replacement, but this feast was already being celebrated in Jerusalem by AD 381. The pope also declared in 496 that the feast of St. Valentine would be on February 14.
[edit] Chaucer's love birds
A portrait of English poet Geoffrey Chaucer by Thomas Hoccleve (1412). The earliest known link between Valentine's Day and romance is found in Chaucer's poetry.The first recorded association of Valentine's Day with romantic love is in Parlement of Foules (1382) by Geoffrey Chaucer:[3]
For this was on seynt Volantynys day
Whan euery bryd comyth there to chese [choose] his make [mate].
This poem was written to honor the first anniversary of the engagement of King Richard II of England to Anne of Bohemia[7]. A treaty providing for a marriage was signed on May 2, 1381.[8] (When they were married eight months later, he was 13 or 14. She was 14.)
On the liturgical calendar, May 2 is the saints' day for Valentine of Genoa. This St. Valentine was an early bishop of Genoa who died around AD 307.[9][10] Readers incorrectly assumed that Chaucer was referring to February 14 as Valentine's Day. However, mid-February is an unlikely time for birds to be mating in England.[4]
Chaucer's Parliament of Foules is generally set in a supposed context of an old tradition, but in fact there was no such tradition before Chaucer. The speculative explanation of sentimental customs, posing as historical fact, had their origins among eighteenth-century antiquaries, notably Alban Butler, the author of Butler's Lives of Saints, and have been perpetuated even by respectable modern scholars. Most notably, "the idea that Valentin'e Day customed perpetuated those of the Roman Lupercalia has been accepted uncritically and repeated, in various forms, up to the present"[5]
[edit] Medieval and modern times
Swedish calendar showing St Valentine's Day, February 14, 1712Using the language of the law courts for the rituals of courtly love, a "High Court of Love" was established in Paris on Valentine's Day in 1400. The court dealt with love contracts, betrayals, and violence against women. Judges were selected by women on the basis of a poetry reading.[11][12]
The earliest surviving valentine is a fifteenth-century rondeau written by Charles, Duke of Orleans to his "valentined" wife, which commences.
Je suis desja d'amour tanné
Ma tres doulce Valentinée… (Charles d'Orléans, Rondeau VI, lines 1–2)
At the time, the ke was being held in the Tower of London following his capture at the Battle of Agincourt, 1415.[6]
Valentine's Day is mentioned ruefully by Ophelia in Hamlet (1600-01): "Tomorrow is Saint Valentine's Day."
In 1836, relics of St. Valentine of Rome were donated by Pope Gregory XVI to the Whitefriar Street Carmelite Church in Dublin, Ireland. In the 1960s, the church was renovated and relics restored to prominence.[13]
In the 1969 revision of the Roman Catholic Calendar of Saints, the feastday of Saint Valentine on 14 February was removed from the General Roman Calendar and relegated to particular (local or even national) calendars for the following reason: "Though the memorial of Saint Valentine is ancient, it is left to particular calendars, since, apart from his name, nothing is known of Saint Valentine except that he was buried on the Via Flaminia on 14 February."[7] The feast day is still celebrated in Balzan and in Malta where relics of the saint are claimed to be found, and also throughout the world by Traditionalist Catholics who follow the older, pre-Vatican II calendar.
Valentine's Day postcard, circa 1910
Tree decorated for Valentine's DayValentine's Day was probably imported into North America in the 19th century by British settlers. In the United States, the first mass-proced valentines of embossed paper lace were proced and sold shortly after 1847 by Esther Howland (1828-1904) of Worcester, Massachusetts. Her father operated a large book and stationery store, and she took her inspiration from an English valentine she had received. Since 2001, the Greeting Card Association has been giving an annual "Esther Howland Award for a Greeting Card Visionary."
In the second half of the twentieth century, the practice of exchanging cards was extended to all manner of gifts in the United States, usually from a man to a woman. Such gifts typically include roses and chocolates. In the 1980s, the diamond instry began to promote Valentine's Day as an occasion for giving jewelry.
The day has come to be associated with a generic platonic greeting of "Happy Valentine's Day."
In some North American elementary schools, students are asked to give a Valentine card or small gift to everyone in the class. The greeting cards of these students often mention what they appreciate about each other.
[edit] The evolving legend
The Early Medieval acta of either Saint Valentine were excerpted by Bede and briefly expounded in Legenda Aurea,[8] According to that version, St Valentine was persecuted as a Christian and interrogated by Roman Emperor Claudius II in person. Claudius was impressed by Valentine and had a discussion with him, attempting to get him to convert to Roman paganism in order to save his life. Valentine refused and tried to convert Claudius to Christianity instead. Because of this, he was executed. Before his execution, he is reported to have performed a miracle by healing the blind daughter of his jailer.
Legenda Aurea still providing no connections whatsoever with sentimental love, appropriate lore has been embroidered in modern times to portray Valentine as a priest who refused an unattested law attributed to Roman Emperor Claudius II, allegedly ordering that young men remain single. The Emperor supposedly did this to grow his army, believing that married men did not make for good soldiers. The priest Valentine, however, secretly performed marriage ceremonies for young men. When Claudius found out about this, he had Valentine arrested and thrown in jail. On the evening before Valentine was to be executed, he wrote the first "valentine" himself, addressed to a young girl variously identified as his beloved,[9] as the jailer's daughter whom he had befriended and healed,[10] or both.[11] It was a note that read "From your Valentine."[9]
In another apparently modern embellishment[citation needed], while Valentine was imprisoned, people would leave him little notes, folded up and hidden in cracks in the rocks around his cell. He would find them and offer prayers for them.

㈧ 情人节的英语翻译是什么情人节的由来又是怎样的呢
西方情人节由来
情人节来历的说法种种,以下列出一些:
版本一:约在公元三世纪的罗马,那时恺撒已经死去快三百年了,暴君克劳多斯(Claudius)当政。当时,罗马内外战争频仍,民不聊生。为了补足兵员,将战争进行到底,Claudius下令,凡是一定年龄范围内的男子,都必须进入罗马军队,以生命为国家效劳。自此,丈夫离开妻子,少年离开恋人。于是整个罗马便被笼罩在绵长的相思中。对此,暴君大为恼火。为了达到自己的目的,他竟然下令禁止国人举行结婚典礼,甚至要求已经结婚的毁掉婚约。
然而,暴政禁止不了爱情。就在暴君的国都里,居住着一位德高望重的修士,他就是瓦沦丁(Valentine),他不忍看到一对对伴侣就这样生离死别,于是为前来请求帮助的情侣秘密地主持上帝的结婚典礼。一时间,这一令人振奋的消息在整个国度传开,更多的情侣秘密地赶来请求修士的帮助。
但是,事情很快还是被暴君知晓了,于是他再一次显示了残暴面目--将修士打进大牢,最终折磨致死。修士死的那一天是2月14日,公元270年的2月14日。
人们为了纪念这个敢于与暴君斗争的人,渐渐地使得2月14日成为一个节日。很多世纪过去了,人们再也记不得Claudius的大名,再也记不得他的权杖与宝剑,但依然会纪念Valentine修士,因为那个日子是Valentine's Day,是情人节。
版本二:这个版本似乎没有上一个精彩。传说中瓦沦丁是最早的基督徒之一,那个时代做一名基督徒意味着危险和死亡。为掩护其他殉教者,瓦沦丁被抓住,投入了监牢。在那里他治愈了典狱长女儿失明的双眼。当暴君听到着一奇迹时,他感到非常害怕,于是将瓦沦丁斩首示众。据传说,在行刑的那一天早晨,瓦沦丁给典狱长的女儿写了一封情意绵绵的告别信,落款是: Fromyour Valentine (寄自你的瓦沦丁) 。
版本三:历史学家们更愿意刨根揪底,他们关于情人节的演绎似乎令人信服。其实远远早于公元270年,当罗马城刚刚奠基时,周围还是一片荒野,成群的狼四处游荡。在罗马人崇拜的众神中,畜牧神卢波库斯(Lupercus)掌管着对牧羊人和羊群的保护。每年二月中,罗马人会举行盛大的典礼来庆祝牧神节。那时的日历与现在相比,要稍微晚一些,所以牧神节实际上是对即将来临的春天的庆祝。也有人说这个节日是庆祝法乌努斯神(Faunus),它类似于古希腊人身羊足,头上有角的潘神,主管畜牧和农业。在节日的各项庆典中,有一项是年轻的贵族们,手持羊皮鞭,在街道上奔跑。年轻妇女们会聚集在街道两旁,祈望羊皮鞭抽打到她们头上。人们相信这样会使她们更容易生儿育女。在拉丁语中,羊皮鞭被叫做 februa,鞭打叫做 fabruatio, 实际上都含有'纯洁'的意思。二月的名字(February)就是由此而来。
随着罗马势力在欧洲的扩张,牧神节的习俗被带到了现在的法国和英国等地。人们最乐此不疲的一项节日活动类似于摸彩。年轻女子们的名字被放置于盒子内,然后年轻男子上前抽取。抽中的一对男女成为情人,时间是一年或更长。
基督教的兴起使人们纪念众神的习俗逐渐淡漠。教士们不希望人们放弃节日的欢乐,于是将牧神节(Lupercalia)改成瓦沦丁节(Valentine's Day),并移至二月十四日。这样,关于瓦沦丁修士的传说和古老的节日就被自然地结合在一起。这一节日在中世纪的英国最为流行。未婚男女的名字被抽出后,他们会互相交换礼物,女子在这一年内成为男子的Valentine。在男子的衣袖上会绣上女子的名字,照顾和保护该女子于是成为该男子的神圣职责。
有史可查的现代意义上的瓦沦丁情人是在十五世纪早期。法国年轻的奥尔良大公(Duke of Orleans)在阿根科特(Agincourt)战役中被英军俘虏,然后被关在伦敦塔中很多年。他写给妻子很多首情诗,大约60首保存至今。用鲜花做瓦沦丁节的信物在大约两百年后出现。法王亨利四世(Henry IV)的一个女儿在瓦沦丁节举行了一个盛大的晚会。所有女士从选中她做Valentine的男士那里获得一束鲜花。就这样,延续着古老的意大利,法国和英国习俗,我们得以在每年的二月十四日向自己的朋友传递爱的信息。鲜花,心形糖果,用花边和摺穗掩盖了送物人名字的信物,不仅仅是代表着一份份真挚的爱,更是对敢于反抗暴政的瓦沦丁修士的最好缅怀。
版本四:在古罗马时期,二月十四日是为表示对约娜的尊敬而设的节日。约娜是罗马众神的皇后,罗马人同时将她尊奉为妇女和婚姻之神。接下来的二月十五日则被"卢帕撒拉节",是用来对约娜治下的其他众神表示尊敬的节日。
在古罗马,年轻人和少女的生活是被严格分开的。然而,在卢帕撒拉节,小伙子们可以选择一个自己心爱的姑娘的名字刻在花瓶上。这样,过节的时候,小伙子就可以与自己选择的姑娘一起跳舞,庆祝节日。如果被选中的姑娘也对小伙子有意的话,他们便可一直配对,而且最终他们会坠入爱河并一起步入教堂结婚。后人为此而将每年的二月十四日定为情人节。
版本五:一本英语辞典上注释说,范泰伦节(情人节)二月十四日,据说鸟在那天开始相尾。
㈨ 情人节英文翻译
英文:Valentine‘s Day。
每年的2月14日是西方国家传统的情人节。
传说以前在英国,所有雀回鸟都会在2月14日日交配答求偶,如黑鸟、山鹑等,皆在2月间求偶。所以,人类也认为每年的2月14日是春天万物初生的佳日,代表着青春生命的开始,也仿效雀鸟于每年的2月14日选伴侣。
中国的情人节是七夕。
“七夕”最早来源于人们对自然天象的崇拜,早在远古时代,人们就对天文星象有认识,并将天空星区与地理区域相互对应。
关于牛郎织女的天文星空区域对应地上地域分野,文字记载见于汉代文献,《汉书·地理志》:“粤(越)地,牵牛(牛郎)、婺女(织女)之分野也,今苍梧、郁林、合浦、交趾、九真、南海、日南皆粤分也”。文献记载了牛郎织女星区对应岭南地域分野。
“七夕”为传统意义上的七姐诞,因拜祭“七姐”活动在七月七日晩上举行,故名“七夕”。拜七姐,祈福许愿、乞求巧艺、坐看牵牛织女星、祈祷姻缘、储七夕水等,是七夕的传统习俗。
经历史发展,七夕被赋予了“牛郎织女”的美丽爱情传说,因被赋予了与爱情有关的内涵,使其成为了象征爱情的节日,从而被认为是中国最具浪漫色彩的传统节日,在当代更是产生了“中国情人节”的文化含义。
