1 popular’celebration of- love, but ■ the origin of the feast'is very obscure-and the saint himself a shadowy person from the mists .


ST VALENTINE’S DAY-Feb- | ruary 14th - is a now a very


of history. He may have been one of many legendary figures or a combination


of them all. They s ta r t with a Roman priest


martyred for his beliefs by the emperor Claudius around 270BC ora bishop of Terni martyred' in Rome around the same time for conducting secret Chris­ tian marriages and holding baptisms. He may have been a Roman centu­


rion placed in charge of martyring Christians in the arena and who, out of compassion, arranged for the younger victims and the women to be killed before the animals could get at them. This man was said to have been


clubbed to death by infuriated specta­ tors for “spoiling their entertainment”. Another tale says he was a Christian


ADVERTISING FEATURE


who, while awaiting his turn in the arena, fell in love with a daughter of his jailer and sent her a love note on the day of his death. Whoever St Valentine was, however,


he probably did exist, although his exact identity will probably never be discovered. The reason February 14th is set


aside in his memory and for celebration is even more complex. The Roman feast of Lupercalia began on February 15th. I t was a day set aside for the cel­ ebration of love in all its aspects and a! great deal of fun was recorded and accepted on this day. The eve of the day was when great entertainments were held for the edifi-


met his doom. With the official acceptance of


Christianity, the church attempted to wipe away the pagan festivals. This, however, proved difficult and i t was generally agreed that love was worth celebrating, albeit in a less sponta­


neous way. So February 14th was adopted as


the day for its celebration and the name of Valentine became inextrica­ bly associated with it. Taking the loved one out for a cele­


bratory meal is a well established cus­ tom and restaurants put on special menus and hold special dances for the


cation and excitement of the populace.,,t.occasion.,_


They included gladiatorial fights and Favourite foods include lamb, the public executions of Christians and salmon and shellfish, accompanied by other dissidents in the arena by w i ld l ig h t salads .with exotic ingredients, animals and gladiators.
