Festivals of Chinese Ethnic Groups·Xibo: The Face-blackening Festival
by Yan Xiangjun, Gui Runnian
Description
Every year on January 16th of the lunar calendar, the Xibo people celebrate a unique festival -- the “Face-blackening Festival”. This peculiar festival that features with smearing each other's faces has a magical origin. This book uses the unique legends of the Xibo people to describe the origin of the “Face-blackening Festival”. Behind that legend is the Xibo people’s yearning for a bumper harvest, their resistance to natural disasters, and their praise of the virtues of diligence and thrift. They use a vivid and interesting story to express their best wishes and safeguard notes to future generations while planting the seeds of kindness and frugality in the details of life.
