Приложение № 1

St. Valentine is one of the popular holidays in Europe and America. It is the day when boys and girls, sweethearts and lovers, husbands and wives, friends and neighbors and even the office staff exchange greetings of affection and undying love.

Do you know anything about the legends of how St. Valentine's Day began?

St. Valentine’s Day as a lovers` festival dates at least from the 14th century.

Generations of young (and not very young) people have regarded St. Valentine as the friend and patron of those who are in love.

However, St. Valentine is rather a mysterious figure. In Ancient Rome there were two martyrs of that name. One of them was a priest who perished in 269 AD, the other was a bishop who was executed in 273 AD. It is said that before the execution he sent a note of friendship to his jailer’s blind daughter and signed it “Your Valentine”.

It is not clear, unfortunately, which of the two is really the lovers` saint. The few known facts of their lives are so interwoven with undocumented traditions that is impossible to separate fact from legend.

The first true Valentine card was probably written by a young Frenchman, Charles, Duke of Orleans. Charles was captured by the English and impris oned in the Tower of London in 1415. He felt very lonely, and to fight his loneliness he started writing love poems to his wife in France. His 'valentines' are now kept in the British Museum.

In 1537, King Henry VIII officially recognized St. Valentine's Day, which is ironic because he wasn't the most romantic of men he had six wives (and two of them were executed)!

The early valen tines were handmade, and young people spent hours composing their own poems. In 1784, the first 'Valentine Encyclopedia' was pub lished under the title of: 'The New English Valentine Writer, or the High Road to Love, for both Sexes, Containing a Complete Set of Valentines, which the Young may read without Blushing, and those of Riper Years find Pleasant and Entertaining.'

As time passed, valentine cards became more and more popular. The Victorians decorated their cards with hearts and Cupids, wild flowers, silk, lace, feathers - you name it!

When the modern postal system was set up in the nineteenth century, a real Valentine's Day industry was found. Ready-made cards were mass-produced, just as they were for Christmas and birthdays.

Today, many people send electronic valentines to their loved ones. But the person who gets an e-valentine will know who it's from! You can't sign it “From your secret admirer”!
