Lucy Worsley's Christmas Carol Odyssey

SADRžAJ

Lucy Worsley reveals that there is much more to our best loved carols than meets the eye, and how they reveal the history of Christmas itself. In the ancient past, a pagan fertility ritual, "the wassail" gave us door-to door-carol singing. Wassailing was also an integral part of an older midwinter festival which was adopted by Christianity when it came to Britain.
