The festivity of Saint Blaise, the patron of Dubrovnik

Description: The evening before the festivity of Saint Blaise in Dubrovnik, Croatia, as all the church bells in the city ring and white doves are released as symbols of peace, worshippers gather for a ritual healing of the throat to preserve them against illness. On the third of February, the official day of both saint and city, parish banner bearers flow into the city in folk costume for the centrepiece of the festival, a procession attended by bishops, ambassadors, civic leaders, visiting notables and the people of Dubrovnik. The festivity embodies many aspects of human creativity, from rituals to folk songs, from performance to traditional crafts (including the making of the historical weapons fired in celebration). The ritual dates back in some form to at least 1190 and has reinforced a close identification of Dubrovniks residents with the citys patron, Saint Blaise. Over time, the festivity has evolved as Dubrovnik and the world have changed. Each generation adapts it slightly, inspired by its own ideas and needs to make the ritual its own. On Saint Blaises day, Dubrovnik gathers not only its residents, but all those who pay respect to tradition and the right to ones freedom and peace.

CHURCH OF ST BLAISE EN
Named after the saint protector of Dubrovnik, this is perhaps the church most beloved of the city's people. Sitting four square on Stradun, its stained glass windows by local artist. A church has stood on this spot since 1368, but following a fire, the present church (1717) was built in Baroque style by Venetian architect Marino Gropelli, who was also sculptor of the statue of St Blaise standing above the entrance to the church. The church's front steps are the setting for some of the most important events of the life of the city, including New Year's Eve and the opening night of the Dubrovnik Summer Festival.

두브로브니크의 중심에는 성 블라이세 성당이 있는데, 이곳 사람들의 성당에 대한 사랑과 존경심은 무척 특별하다. 외세의 침입이 잦았던 두브로브니크는 수많은 전쟁을 치르면서 도시 전체가 파괴되는 참담한 경험을 많이 했고, 수호성인에게 부디 두브로브니크를 지켜줄 것을 한 마음으로 기도했다고 한다. 그래서 도시 곳곳에는 두브로브니크를 들고 신께 구원을 요청하는 수호성인을 어렵지 않게 만날 수 있다.
