Karfreitagsprozession
6 April 2012
|
Bei der Basilika ihren Ausgang nimmt auch die berühmte, seit 1627 stattfindende Processione del Venerdi Santo
(Karfreitagsprozession) der Turchini-Bruderschaft, einer Gruppe von
einstigen Flagellanten. Der Umzug ist pompös und laut, besitzt jedoch
zugleich einen ganz eigenen intimen Charakter, der sehr beeindruckt.
Die mitgeführten selbst arrangierten Misteri, Statuengruppen, weisen in den letzten Jahren mehr und mehr zeitgenössische Bezüge auf.Good Friday Procession
6 April 2012
|
There are many religious traditions on the island tied to the period of Holy Week before Good Friday.
The most evocative of these are the Procession of the Apostles of Holy Thursday and the Procession of the Mysteries of Good Friday. The last one is based on a tradition going back to the end of the 17th century. In the Procession, the young males of the island, dressed in the traditional dress of the "Confraternity of the Turchini",
carry allegorical wagons (called "mysteries") of religious character
for a fixed distance, from the village of Torre Murata to the port of
Marina Grande.
The "mysteries", often highly artistic, are
prepared by the young people and generally nobody except them would
have, at least in theory, seen them before the procession. After the
procession, they are taken apart or destroyed. |  |

....Wir kamen nach Procida und segelten wie eine Alge, die die eine Welle auf die andere wirft und die den Fluten ergriffen wird....
