PASCHAL TRIDUUM IN RAMA PASSIONIC HERITAGE

Marko Dragić ; Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Split

Abstract

This paper presents Rama authentic field recordings of prayers, customs
and rituals that characterize Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter
Saturday. The author interprets the recordings in a general-Catholic,
ethnological, anthropological and biblical context. A significant number
of mentioned oral prayers have certain anthological value, and many of
them are covered with oblivion. Much of the tradition has been preserved
to our days, and is characterized by: prayers, strict fasting, help the poor
and sick. Rama spiritual heritage evidently testifies that the Croats from
Rama are deep rooted in western European civilization. This spirituality
is passed through the millennia by the Croatian language and it is a
treasure trove of philological, ethnological, anthropological, theological,
and other treasures.

Keywords

The Passion of Jesus Christ; the lamentations of the Blessed Virgin Mary; Holy Thursday; Good Friday, Holy Saturday.
