Najveći Ljetni Blagdan: Vela Gospa

Objavljeno u Zanimljivosti

Blagdan Vele Gospe je jedan od najznačajnijih blagdana u katoličkom kalendaru, te državni praznik u cijeloj Hrvatskoj.

U Splitskoj na otoku Braču je Gospa zaštitnica sela, tako da je blagdan Vele Gospe, 15. kolovoza jedan sasvim poseban dan. Kao i kod većine katoličkih blagdana, proslava počinje sa crkvenim slavljem, odavanjem počasti svecu kroz misu i procesiju. S obzirom, da se sve dovađa usred ljeta, misa bude uvijek predvečer.

Kao i obično, misi prethodi crkveno zvono, koje počinje sat i petnaest minuta prije početka mise i glasi se svakih petnaest minuta. Samo što je ovaj put malo drukčije od uobičajenog u tome, da sva tri zvona zvone punom snagom kroz ručno pokretanje iskusnim zvonarima visoko u zvoniku. Postoji duga tradicija u ručnom udaranju na zvona u zvoniku, koje izvode 76-godišnji Vladimir Čeprnić i njegov rođak Pero Barbarić. Zadatak zahtjeva odličnu fizičku kondiciju. Uspon do zvonika nije jednostavan i pokretanje teških zvona i zvonjenje, posebice onoga velikoga, je pitanje snage i izdržljivosti. Prije početka mise zvone zvona po nekoliko minuta. Tijekom procesije koja slijedi nakon mise, zvone neprekidno za vrijeme trajanje šetnje po selu, koje traje više od pola sata.

Za misu se mala crkvica uvijek napuni do zadnjeg mjesta a mnogi sudjeluju i vani ispred glavnog ulaza. Mnogo više ljudi se pridruži procesiji nakon mise. Tijekom mise pokreće crkveno zvono u ključnim svečanim trenucima sin Vladimira Čeprnića, Jure, redovni zvonar Splitske. Procesija kreće uzbrdo u večernjem suncu s kipom Majke Božje i Djeteta, koji nose četiri mladića iz sela praćeni župnikom don Markom Plančićem.

Bočni oltar, na kojem se obično nalazi portret Djevice s Djetetom, svečano je ukrašen u iščekivanju povratka kipa.

Procesija skreće lijevo kroz vrata crkve, umjesto da ide niz glavne stepenice prema rivi i vodi uzbrdo obilazeći glavni dio sela. Vođena je uobičajenom dvojicom stjegonoša sa zastavama u čast Gospi.

Iza stjegonoša hoda grupa muškaraca, nakon njih mlade djevojke odjevene kao mali anđeli noseći latice cvijeća. Starija djeca u svečanoj odjeći hodaju iza nositelja kipa a nakon njih hoda župnik don Marko u izolaciji.

Nakon što je obišla gornju sjevernu stranu sela, procesija dolazi na rivu i skreće desno prema crkvi. Prolazi pored glavnog ulaza u crkvu, ide ravno kroz rivu prolazeći pored ulaza u Cerineo/Cerinić vilu, gdje se okreće kako bi krenula prema crkvi. Kako su uvijek uz cestu parkirani automobili, može postati prilično usko za okretanje procesije, ali sve do danas je ova manja neugodnost uvijek prošla bez ikakvih komplikacija.

Do završetka procesije se uvijek smrači. Nakon toga je kratko zatišje, dok ljudi večeraju ili šetaju oko štandova na rivi kupujući balone i nove igračke za djecu. U 21:00 počinje veselje. U 2016. godini je večer otvorila Klapa Rišpet sa svojim prekrasno raznolikim repertoarom pjesama, nekim a cappella, ali ponajviše u pratnji instrumenata. Publika se s oduševljenjem priključila pjevanju a klapa je spremno odgovorila i na njene glazbene želje. Djeca su neumorno plesala, roditelji su slikali, odrasli se družili u razgovorima, neki su jeli kobasice ili palačinke prodavane na štandovima brze hrane, bezalkoholno piće i pivo se konzumiralo u velikim količinama. Koji put su djeca upadala na pozornicu, da bi ih odrasli povukli natrag zabrinuti oko moguće opasnosti od električnih žica. Vitka mlada dama u vrućim hlaćicama se popela na pozornicu ispred klape i izgledalo je, da će i ono malo što ima na sebi biti uklonjeno u nizu seksi pokreta na glasnu radost dijela publike. Međutim, završetka nije bilo, jer je zastrašujuće veliki čuvar odjeven u prijeteće crne kožne hlače stručno vratio mladu damu natrag na zemlju.

Negdje blizu ponoći, Klapa Rišpet je napustila pozornicu, da bi je zamijenio popularni pjevački dvojac, koji redovito nastupa na blagdanima Splitske. No, osjetilo se nestrpljenje u zraku: svake godine je vrhunac scenskog nastupa pojavljivanje zvonara Juru Čeprnića.

Potaknut grupom prijatelja, Jure svake godine preuzima pozornicu i izvodi nekoliko pjesama, koje su uvijek dobro primljene među njegovom predanom publikom - fan klubom lojalnih mještana.

2016. godine se mlada dama, čiju je striptiz točku prekinuo krupni izbacivač, ponovno pojavila na pozornici zajedno sa Jurom, uz oduševljen pljesak publike. Ovoga puta je zadržala svoju odjeću ali je izvela nekoliko vrlo nepriličnih pokreta, nimalo pogodnih za ono podosta djece, koja su još uvijek bila prisutna. Srećom je većina one najmlađe djece tada već spavala u naručjima svojih roditelja a pretpostavljam, da je većina one starije djece i tako sve to već vidjela na televiziji i na internetu.

Potaknute primjerom ´Gospođice Vruće-Hlačice´, još dvije - mlađe i pristojnije - plesačice su se popele na pozornicu i pridružile se Juri, tako da se atmosfera dobrog raspoloženja proširila kako među izvođačima tako i među publikom. Kako bi upotpunila svoj imidž opuštene sofisticiranosti, "Gospođica Vruće-Hlačice" je zapalila cigaretu i bezbrižno je kružila oko svojih oblačića dima.

Jure se nije činio nimalo uznemiren svim ovim upadima, sretno se smiješeći nastavlja sa setom svojih pjesama. Pred kraj je bio nagrađen poljupcem u obraz, nakon kojeg je "Gospođica Vruće-Hlačice" skočila s pozornice - koristeći moju glavu i osobu pored mene kao odskočnu dasku.

Juri je nakon njegove izvedbe aplaudirala publika i ljudi su mu čestitali sa svih strana dok je veličanstveno hodao rivom.. Jurin trenutak slave je bio gotov za ovu godinu, upisan mu je opet jedan veliki uspjeh. Pjevački dvojac, potaknut Jurinim primjerom, pjevao je s guštom do 2 sata ujutro, kada se selo vratilo u svoje normalne razine relativne tišine, izuzev nekolicine bučnih izoliranih skupina.

Pohvale lokalnim službama za zbrinjavanje otpada i svim organizatorima: pozornica i gotovo svaki komadić smeća su bili uklonjeni do sljedećeg jutra.

Vela Gospa: veliki blagdan za Katoličku Hrvatsku, a u Splitskoj (vjerojatno i drugdje) i fina mješavina pobožnosti i hedonizma, možda točno odražavajuća kontraste postojeće unutar dalmatinskog načina života.

  • National weather service, Météo-France, says Tuesday was the hottest day since measurements began in 1947

    France has registered its hottest day on record as 40 people across the country were confirmed to have drowned while swimming in unsupervised areas over the last few days.

    “There is a tragic scourge of drownings,” prime minister Sébastien Lecornu said on Tuesday. “The latest figures we’ve received are 40 deaths since 18 June. Most of the victims are young people.”

  • As hot weather becomes more common, companies and homeowners are coming up with innovative ways to keep properties cool

    When graphic designer Marc Alabaster had a new set of glass doors installed at his West Sussex home eight years ago, he soon realised how they magnified the heat of the afternoon sun.

    “The kitchen was 40-plus degrees,” he said. Then he went on holiday to Spain and saw an apartment building wrapped in louvre-like rows of angled fins or blades that shaded the external walls against the sun.

  • Half a century on, Britain braces for temperatures up to 40C as global heating brings yet more extreme weather

    The summer of 1976 is seared into national memory as one of record heat. Harvests failed, farmers despaired, Britain imported an extra million tonnes of grain, food prices rose by 12%, taps ran dry, and each day, 250 people died from heat-related deaths.

    The heatwave, which began 50 years ago on Tuesday, brought 15 consecutive days on which the peak temperature was above 32C. Half a century later and 32C no longer feels shocking.

  • Researchers say it is ‘quite wild’ to see fires at such high northern latitudes happen so early in the year

    Scientists have expressed concern after two wildfires broke out within a week of each other on the Arctic island of Greenland earlier this month.

    Fires were burning close to Sisimiut, Greenland’s second largest town and a popular tourism centre, on 14 and 15 June, satellite imagery has shown, while a second blaze hit Kujalleq, on the island’s southern tip, on 17 June.

  • The cost of the traditional takeaway has doubled since 2019, and more outlets are trying to tempt customers with cheaper options such as coley, pollack and hake

    In late April, visitors to Harbour Lights in Falmouth, Cornwall, may have raised an eyebrow. The fish and chip shop was in the midst of a “cod-free week”, its owners having removed cod from its menu entirely.

    It was the second time owner Pete Fraser had undertaken the experiment, 15 years after the first. He also removed cod from his shops in Penzance and Helston, replacing it with coley, pollack, hake and hoki. The result was very different. “Some of the feedback we had, which certainly wasn’t what we got when we ran it years ago, is ‘Can you repeat this?’ Before, it was like, ‘Have you guys lost your head’?”

  • Energy secretary hails £100bn milestone in this parliament and says it is ‘only the start of what we want to achieve’

    Ed Miliband has hailed a boost to UK jobs and growth as government data reveals that private sector companies have pledged more than £100bn in investment into the green economy so far in this parliament.

    Offshore wind, solar power and the electricity grid make up the bulk of the planned investment, most of it between 2024 and 2031, which will go to all regions of the UK and comes from a mixture of UK companies and overseas sources including the EU and Japan.

  • The country’s biggest tree – named Heaven Sword of the Da’an River – is a carbon-storing behemoth hosting whole neighbourhoods of wildlife. But this and other giant trees are under threat

    The higher you climb up the gigantic, millennia-old trees of Taiwan’s forests, the more layers of habitat and life emerge. On the forest floor, ferns thrive in the moist shade. Flying squirrels and owls sleep inside the hollow tree trunks. Yellow bell-shaped rhododendron flowers spring from the lower tree canopy. Higher still, dense lichen spread. Up in cloud-drenched branches, a rare, hardy orchid, Bulbophyllum ciliisepalum, can be spotted.

    “In one tree, every species has their preferred location,” says Dr Rebecca Hsu, assistant researcher at the Taiwan Forestry Research Institute. “Every metre the temperature, the wind, the sun, the light is different.”

  • In HBO documentary The Welcome Table, director Josh Fox brings together people from across the world whose lives have been dramatically altered by the climate crisis

    In an age of division, director Josh Fox is hoping to bring people of all kinds together. Specifically, he wants them to share a table – to break bread for a meal, and come together in exuberant song.

    In his new documentary film The Welcome Table, the director of the the Emmy-winning Gasland travels around the world to talk to people at the leading edge of global warming’s effects. The film is part stark warning of the climate crisis, part opportunity to enter into the experience of those living in the corners of the globe. It culminates with the sounds of these individuals together at an enormous table in New Orleans, eating and rejoicing.

  • The colour-coordinated ‘clean girl’ athleisure aesthetic is dead. Now it’s all about mismatched outfits and vintage sportswear

    At first, the goblins came for our downtime. Going “goblin mode” was a lifestyle confined to the home – to the bed, mostly. The “comforts of depravity” it brought (“watching 90 Day Fiancé on mute while scrolling endlessly through social media, pouring the end of a bag of chips in your mouth”, for example) weren’t compatible with doing anything productive.

    Enter the gym goblin. The optics remain much the same – think ancient T-shirts, knackered socks, oversized cardigans – but the setting has changed, with goblincore devotees rising up from unmade beds, Diet Cokes in hand, to hit the treadmill. It’s Diana, Princess of Wales’s oversized college sweatshirts meets Josh O’Connor’s half-tracksuit look for the Disclosure Day press tour – and the polar opposite of the matcha-drinking, Lululemoned “clean girl” aesthetic that dominates fitness circles.

  • Is it an alien? A dinosaur? Is it going to kill us all? Our writer hits Ashdown Forest for the Big One Hundred celebrations – and finds its magic enchanting new generations

    The rolling idyll of heath and forest, spinney and stream that gave us the Heffalump, the Woozle and, most famously of all, Winnie-the-Pooh, has a new fantastical resident. Creeping through the bracken, making strange cooing and purring noises, is a shapeshifting creature with a huge tubular nose and eyes inspired by adders. It shimmies with iridescent patches and the psychedelic purple of flowering heather in high summer.

    Poppet, a puppet made by costume designer Jack Irving and brought to life by a team of 10 award-winning puppeteers, is performing for schoolchildren in Ashdown Forest, East Sussex. The primary school class squeal with delighted fear as the purple apparition transforms itself from caterpillar to bird to munching monster in sinuous moves.
