Ghalhekk, meta ddum ma tohrog tqila tara x’taghmel biex dan isehh. Kienet titlob lill-Madonna u lill-qaddisin u taghmel il-weghdi, kif ghadu jsir ukoll illum. Jekk il-weghda titwettaq, taghti zejt, emgha, flus jew xi hannieqa tad-deheb jew curkett u xi drabi wkoll xi “ex-voto” tal-fidda bil-figura ta’ tarbija mgezwra fil-fisqija. 1985-11-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/36326 Title: Malta's oldest Good Friday procession Abstract: Rabat has numerous relics of the devotion towards the Passion of Our Lord. John Bezzina calls it “Malta’s cradle of Christianity.” The first relic of the Good Friday devotio goes back to the late, Roman-Early Byzantine period, in the crypt of l-Abatija tad-Dejr, limits of Rabat. There is an affresco in the apse representing the Crucifiction. 1985-11-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/36325 Title: Kif iduru l-ismijiet Abstract: Sa qabel it-tieni gwerra dinjija, l-ismijiet tal-Maltin kienu aktar jinkitbu “a la taljana”, izda fil-hajja ta’ kuljum u fil-familja, kienu jiehdu ghamla Maltija. Minbarra l-forma ufficjali kellhom ukoll forma popolari jew folkloristika. 1985-11-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/36324 Title: Ftit mid-divertiment ta' qabel il-gwerra Abstract: Fl-imghoddi, hawn Malta ma kelhomx wisq biex jedhew. Aktarx kienu jkunu okkupati bix-xoghol, bid-dar u bil-knisja. Ftit kienu jafu jaqraw u ftit kien hawn x’taqra bil-Malti. Minhabba li ma kienx hawn radju, id-dilettanti tal-muzika kienu jikkuntentaw ruhhom billi kultant jisimghu xi programm tal-banda minn fuq plancier, jew xi marc ta’ festa. 1985-11-01T00:00:00Z
