Il significato simbolico del cibo nelle celebrazioni delle feste tradizionali cinesi / C. Bulfoni. - In: SULLA VIA DEL CATAI. - ISSN 1970-3449. - 13:(2015), pp. 43-53.
Abstract:
Chinese dishes often have imaginatives names, sometimes impossible to translate. These can be identified only knowing the culture, traditions and Language of the country. This is most true for food and dishes related to traditional Chinese festivals because of the large amount of homophones in Mandarin Chinese, which leave space for puns and, especially during festivals, are bearer of hope and positive meanings (like wealth and health) and which are also bound to Chinese history and traditional culture. The article deals with the main Chinese festivals and their typical food, in order to briefly illustrate their qualities and meanings in today's China.
