各位,请问有谁知道中秋节的来历啊!急需急需呀!
中秋节的由来
中秋节是我国的传统佳节。根据史籍的记载,“中秋”一词最早出现在《周礼》一书中。到魏晋时,有“谕尚书镇牛淆,中秋夕与左右微服泛江”的记载。直到唐朝初年,中秋节才成为固定的节日。《唐书·太宗记》记载有“八月十五中秋节”。中秋节的盛行始于宋朝,至明清时,已与元旦齐名,成为我国的主要节日之一。这也是我国仅次于春节的第二大传统节日。
根据我国的历法,农历八月在秋季中间,为秋季的第二个月,称为“仲秋”,而八月十五又在“仲秋”之中,所以称“中秋”。中秋节有许多别称:因节期在八月十五,所以称“八月节”、“八月半”;因中秋节的主要活动都是围绕“月”进行的,所以又俗称“月节”、“月夕”;中秋节月亮圆满,象征团圆,因而又叫“团圆节”。在唐朝,中秋节还被称为“端正月”。关于“团圆节”的记载最早见于明代。《西湖游览志余》中说:“八月十五谓中秋,民间以月饼相送,取团圆之意”。《帝京景物略》中也说:“八月十五祭月,其饼必圆,分瓜必牙错,瓣刻如莲花。……其有妇归宁者,是日必返夫家,曰团圆节也"。中秋晚上,我国大部分地区还有烙“团圆”的习俗,即烙一种象征团圆、类似月饼的小饼子,饼内包糖、芝麻、桂花和蔬菜等,外压月亮、桂树、兔子等图案。祭月之后,由家中长者将饼按人数分切成块,每人一块,如有人不在家即为其留下一份,表示合家团圆。
中秋节时,云稀雾少,月光皎洁明亮,民间除了要举行赏月、祭月、吃月饼祝福团圆等一系列活动,有些地方还有舞草龙,砌宝塔等活动。除月饼外,各种时令鲜果干果也是中秋夜的美食。
中秋节起源的另一个说法是:农历八月十五这一天恰好是稻子成熟的时刻,各家都拜土地神。中秋可能就是秋报的遗俗。
这是人们一直都喻为最有人情味、最诗情画意的一个节日。有说,每逢佳节倍思亲。中秋节这一份思念当然会更深切,尤其是一轮明月高高挂的时刻。
中秋之所以是中秋,是因为农历八月十五这一天是在三秋制中。这一天天上的圆月分外明亮特别的大特别的圆,所以这一天也被视为撮合姻缘的大好日子。
说起中秋的来源,坊间一直流传着多个不同的传说和神话故事。其中就有嫦蛾奔月、朱元璋月饼起义、唐明皇游月宫等故事。
最为人熟悉当然是嫦娥奔月,嫦娥偷了丈夫后羿的不死仙丹,飞奔到月宫的故事也有多个版本。在较早的记载中,嫦娥偷吃了仙药,变成了癞蛤蟆,被叫着月精。
奔月后,嫦娥住的月宫其实是一个寂寞的地方,除了一棵桂树和一只兔子,就别无他物。可是又有另一个说法是,在月宫里还有一个叫吴刚的人。
唐明皇游月宫,话说贵为天子的唐明皇对嫦娥非常的迷恋。一天他上了月宫,在月宫里看到了一只玉兔和一群能歌善舞的仙女 。
朱元璋成功推翻蒙古人,建立明朝,在民间的传说中是赖月饼作为通讯工具。朱元璋带头取义,把字条塞在每个月饼馅里,呼唤众人依时起义。
中秋节的起源,其中的一个说法是:农历八月十五这一天恰好是稻子成熟的时刻,各家都拜土地神。中秋可能就是秋报的遗俗。
中秋夜,除了拜祭、还有就是应节的月饼和灯笼。祭拜的当然是在天上的嫦娥,也有人称她为月娘。老人家说,小孩子不可以用手指指月亮,要不然会被割耳朵
时至今天,中秋的原意也已经没有多少人知道,对于新的一代来说,中秋节最令人记取的是月饼和灯笼。当然,月圆当空的节日,是人们团圆的大好日子。
The joyous Mid-Autumn Festival, the third and last festival for the living, was celebrated on the fifteenth day of the eighth moon, around the time of the autumn equinox. Many referred to it simply as the "Fifteenth of the Eighth Moon". In the Western calendar, the day of the festival usually occurred sometime between the second week of September and the second week of October.
This day was also considered a harvest festival since fruits, vegetables and grain had been harvested by this time and food was abundant. With delinquent accounts settled prior to the festival , it was a time for relaxation and celebration. Food offerings were placed on an altar set up in the courtyard. Apples, pears, peaches, grapes, pomegranates , melons, oranges and pomelos might be seen. Special foods for the festival included moon cakes, cooked taro, edible snails from the taro patches or rice paddies cooked with sweet basil, and water caltrop, a type of water chestnut resembling black buffalo horns. Some people insisted that cooked taro be included because at the time of creation, taro was the first food discovered at night in the moonlight. Of all these foods, it could not be omitted from the Mid-Autumn Festival.
T he round moon cakes, measuring about three inches in diameter and one and a half inches in thickness, resembled Western fruitcakes in taste and consistency. These cakes were made with melon seeds, lotus seeds, almonds, minced meats, bean paste, orange peels and lard. A golden yolk from a salted duck egg was placed at the center of each cake, and the golden brown crust was decorated with symbols of the festival. Traditionally, thirteen moon cakes were piled in a pyramid to symbolize the thirteen moons of a "complete year," that is, twelve moons plus one intercalary moon.
Origin
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festivity for both the Han and minority nationalities. The custom of worshipping the moon (called xi yue in Chinese) can be traced back as far as the ancient Xia and Shang Dynasties (2000 B.C.-1066 B.C.). In the Zhou Dynasty(1066 B.C.-221 B.C.), people hold ceremonies to greet winter and worship the moon whenever the Mid-Autumn Festival sets in. It becomes very prevalent in the Tang Dynasty(618-907 A.D.) that people enjoy and worship the full moon. In the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279 A.D.), however, people send round moon cakes to their relatives as gifts in expression of their best wishes of family reunion. When it becomes dark, they look up at the full silver moon or go sightseeing on lakes to celebrate the festival. Since the Ming (1368-1644 A.D. ) and Qing Dynasties (1644-1911A.D.), the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebration becomes unprecedented popular. Together with the celebration there appear some special customs in different parts of the country, such as burning incense, planting Mid-Autumn trees, lighting lanterns on towers and fire dragon dances. However, the custom of playing under the moon is not so popular as it used to be nowadays, but it is not less popular to enjoy the bright silver moon. Whenever the festival sets in, people will look up at the full silver moon, drinking wine to celebrate their happy life or thinking of their relatives and friends far from home, and extending all of their best wishes to them.
Moon Cakes
There is this story about the moon-cake. during the Yuan dynasty (A.D. 1280-1368) China was ruled by the Mongolian people. Leaders from the preceding Sung dynasty (A.D. 960-1280) were unhappy at submitting to the foreign rule, and set how to coordinate the rebellion without being discovered. The leaders of the rebellion, knowing that the Moon Festival was drawing near, ordered the making of special cakes. Backed into each moon caked was a message with the outline of the attack. On the night of the Moon Festival, the rebels successfully attached and overthrew the government. Today, moon cakes are eaten to commemorate this legend and was called the Moon Cake.
For generations, moon cakes have been made with sweet fillings of nuts, mashed red beans, lotus-seed paste or Chinese dates, wrapped in a pastry. Sometimes a cooked egg yolk can be found in the middle of the rich tasting dessert. People compare moon cakes to the plum pudding and fruit cakes which are served in the English holiday seasons.
Nowadays, there are hundreds varieties of moon cakes on sale a month before the arrival of Moon Festival.
Different Celebrated Forms
For thousands of years, the Chinese people have related the vicissitudes of life to changes of the moon as it waxes and wanes; joy and sorrow, parting and reunion. Because the full moon is round and symbolizes reunion, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also known as the festival of reunion. All family members try to get together on this special day. Those who can not return home watch the bright moonlight and feel deep longing for their loved ones.
Today, festivities centered about the Mid-Autumn Festival are more varied. After a family reunion dinner, many people like to go out to attend special performances in parks or on public squares.
People in different parts of China have different ways to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. In Guangzhou in South China, a huge lantern show is a big attraction for local citizens. Thousands of differently shaped lanterns are lit, forming a fantastic contrast with the bright moonlight.
In East China's Zhejiang Province, watching the flood tide of the Qian-tang River during the Mid-Autumn Festival is not only a must for local people, but also an attraction for those from other parts of the country. The ebb and flow of tides coincide with the waxing and waning of the moon as it exerts a strong gravitational pull. In mid autumn, the sun, earth and moon send out strong gravitational forces upon the seas. The mouth of the Qiantang River is shaped like a bugle. So the flood tide which forms at the narrow mouth is particularly impressive. Spectators crowd on the river bank, watching the roaring waves. At its peak, the tide rises as high as three and a half meters.
民俗学家则认为,中秋节的原始基础是源于先民对月亮的崇拜。到周朝时,对月亮的朝拜仪式开始岁时化,“中春昼……迎暑,中秋夜迎寒”。在汉代以前,秋夕祭月已列入朝廷典章。到唐宋时,中秋节已受到普遍的重视。
中秋节吃月饼的记载,在北宋前的典籍中很难找到。直到南宋,周密所写的《武林旧事》卷六才提到蒸食的糕饼中有“月饼”。是否就是中秋专用的节物,则不得而知。月饼明确地作为中秋节专用之物,并被赋予“团圆”、“和美”的美好意蕴,是在元代之后,“民间以月饼相遗,取团圆之义”。《明宫史》载,每年农历八月初一开始,“即有卖月饼者,至十五日,家家供月饼、瓜果。”

请问有谁知道电脑中的1394接口是干什么用的?
例如,像硬盘这种对于电量要求较高的设备就很难从所接入的设备中得到充足的电力供应。以Evergreen推出的HotDrive为例,该硬盘如果与PC连接的话,不需要任何的外部电源供应;但是如果与笔记本电脑连接的话,就需要使用一个外接电源。综上所述,这两种IEEE1394接口可谓是各有千秋,所以也无法说谁比谁更好。
