The festivity of the\u00a0Ferragosto<\/strong>\u00a0is a wholly Italian peculiarity and is linked to an analogous\u00a0Roman<\/strong>\u00a0tradition\u00a0, dating back to 18 BC.\u00a0At that time we celebrated “the rest of Augustus” (\u00a0Feriae Augusti<\/em>\u00a0), as a central event of the period of rest from work in the fields.<\/p>\n

With the upper hand of\u00a0Christianity<\/strong>\u00a0over pagan rituals, the August period is devoted to the veneration of the Madonna assumed into heaven, but it is only in the Fascist period that the indissoluble link between this holiday and holidays is rooted in the Italian popular tradition.<\/p>\n

Initially it was a\u00a0trip out of town<\/strong>\u00a0with friends and relatives, during which a traditional menu was consumed: among these rice and pigeon to the northeast, fettuccine and chicken with peppers in the Rome area, chicken with potatoes in Puglia.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Fascism<\/strong>\u00a0promised to make the festival accessible to all classisociali with the creation of\u00a0popular trains<\/em>\u00a0, which at low prices offered trips of one, two or three days at the turn of the period 13-16 August.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With the\u00a0economic boom<\/strong>\u00a0of the 60s, the tradition of the monthly closure of the large production plants of northern Italy became an occasion for the emigrants for a long period of holidays in the countries of origin.\u00a0And it is in this period that the\u00a0dinner on the eve of Ferragosto<\/strong>\u00a0is also born\u00a0, mainly based on fish, often accompanied by music and fireworks, along the lines of the New Year celebrations.\u00a0In the 80’s the custom of the\u00a0bonfire on the beach<\/strong>\u00a0, borrowed from traditions of\u00a0Sicily<\/strong>\u00a0, spread among the very young\u00a0.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our mid-August brings together various traditions, the first is that of the dinner with the veglione and the fireworks over the sea, the second is the popular soul linked to the Roman tradition with its tagliatelle and chicken with peppers to eat but comfortable at the table , maybe a dip in the\u00a0pool<\/strong>\u00a0(entering with a little\u00a0caution<\/strong>\u00a0, despite the water temperature over 30 degrees).<\/p>\n

This year for the dinner on the eve of Ferragosto the menu provides<\/p>\n
