... The fierce and Sant'Antànni

(The Fair of Saint Anthony)

five hundred and twenty are the peddlers setting up their stalls in the center of Modena at the Fair of Saint Anthony in the program Monday, Jan. 17.

For Modena is a highly anticipated event, a little 'as the "dress rehearsal" of the other important event: the

" Beasley and San Zemiàn " Fair St. Geminiano (January 31), patron saint of the city.

The tradition of celebrating this holy has ancient roots related to the agricultural past of the city. St. Anthony is considered the protector of domestic animals, usually enough to be shown next to a pig that goes to the neck a little bell.

Ernesta's grandmother, so she always, when you were telling me bless stalls piggeries and hen houses for the protection of the saint.

The tradition stems from the fact that the order of Antonians had obtained permission to raise pigs in residential areas because the fat of these animals was used to anoint the sick affected by the fire of Sant ' Antonio . The pigs were fed at the expense of community and circulated freely in the country with a bell around his neck.

campaigns from Modena, and from my memory as a child, here are some "sayings" associated with the occurrence

; ;

"Sant'Antànni from the Berber white fam truvér Tott which ones whom I love is missing."

white-bearded St. Anthony let me get everything I miss. So we prayed in the country when you lose something of value.

" Sant'Antànni from campanèin, an gh'è pan es'an gh'è vein, complaining gh'è an ind-al-Graner: Sant'Antànni, cum'àmia from fer? ".

St. Anthony by the bell, there is no bread and no wine, no wood in the barn. Anthony, how are we to do? Another prayer to the saint, a call for help.

"For Sant'Antànni and San Zemiàan muntagna the vin to the floor."

For San Antonio and San Gemini down to the mountain top. On the occasion of fairs Modena down the mountain in the city.

"For a sant'Antànni pega chel damage."

A St. Anthony charged women . At this fair, Modena is the women who make a gift to men. A gift that will be reciprocated in San Gemini, January 31, the feast of the patron.

"Sant'Antànni cer, Madànna the dark, there is an Vilan n'avèr fear."

San Antonio Light (17 January) and Dark Lady (February 2), it should be 'the woman, not afraid. If Saint Anthony the weather is nice and Candlemas is bad, the farmer can feel comfortable because it goes to a summer meeting.
