Santa and Krampus

The story is always told by who wins the game wins the war, the conquest. Never for whoever loses. Therefore, we are only part of a story and missing parts. There is no such thing as "impartial history." All written or told story is partial two-way, in that it is transmitted to us a small part of what really happened - this implies the omission or inclusion in emphasis or in her absence. The story can be told openly or deceitfully, consciously or unconsciously, but anyway, with two versions we have to explore ever. Search. Have you ever heard of a "mythical" character named "Krampus"? No?But Santa Claus since. What they have in common? Both are part of a terrible, macabre story, which is consciously omitted from the Western society. Krampus [German spelling] is said to be mythical, but in my BLOG the "Myths" earn another connotation, another vision, an "X-ray" what we can not see easily because that is my intention, to see beyond. MYTH - the French Mythe (1818) from the Latin Mythus, the Greek mythos - Myths are "stories about divine beings, are revered as true and sacred, as are endorsed by rulers and priests. "The myth is closely linked to religion Since this bond is broken, and the actors of history are not considered gods but human heroes, giants and fairies, are no longer a myth but a legend. And when the central actor is divine, but the story is trivial, the result is religious legend, no myth. "[J. Simpson & S. Roud," Folklore English Dictionary ", Oxford, 2000] Between Myths and Legends The Krampus is described in "folklore" Aryan like an abominable be the populations of the villages and towns in the areas of Alpine mountains, as in Austria, Germany, Alsace, Switzerland, Slovenia, and many others. But why abominable? What a be accompanying figure - also legendary - as Santa Claus on Christmas rituals could have macabre origin, "evil"? Tells the legend that the Krampus punishes children who "behaved badly" during Christmas. As Krampus punishes? Well, tells the legend he appears with a bag or a tub (?) And carries on the chosen child in front of his own family mercilessly. The "folk" texts it is said that "St. Nicholas" is concerned only with good children, Krampus is as responsible for the bad children. The children gain good gifts, bad, receive punishment. You heard that? I wanted to know how young children can be bad at something. But this explanation can gain another perspective on.The "good" children are those that do not emit despair or revolt. They are free from any kind of stressful emotion, which invalidates the sacrifice. Children "bad" are entering the terrifying dynamics. Suffer to a high degree, screaming and thrashing, struggling for life desperately. A simple way to perpetuate in society the idea of ​​sacrifice and punishment, an idiot heritage that is part of human history. Remember the story of God's son who was punished and sacrificed in the name of ... why do it? Cartoon give us so much information Its creators do not set up an entire plot and animation for "distracted" your children, do not be silly. Children do not go to the movies alone. Lipe Lundorf
