Professor Antonio - Il presepe, la diffusione e qualche curiosità

Difficulty: difficulty - Intermediate Intermediate

Italy

Antonio explains that the Italian tradition of constructing a nativity scene during the Christmas season had it origins in the thirteenth century, when Saint Francis of Assisi organized the first live re-enactment of the birth of Jesus. It soon spread to all of Italy, but above all to the Kingdom of Naples, where everyone got involved, from the poorest family to the King himself.
