dc.description.abstract | In modern times, the blessing of animals in Malta has actually increased, but the present aims of this ceremony are not necessarily those of the past. The tradition is quite old, but although its origin is unknown, it was alive in the 16th century, in the time of the Knights of St. John. At that time, however, animals were blessed only on the occasion of the feast of Saint Anthony the Abbot. | en_GB |
