  • Today we do a brief overview of 17th century and slightly later Christmas Practices and History in England, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and among sailors, pirates, and buccaneers. I stress brief, because I will likely make a holiday video as a seasonal thing, my sponsor for this video will demand it.

    Disclaimer- My French is awful, especially when it comes to French translations of indigenous words. There is a section in here with LOTS of that, it was a nightmare, but I gave it a try. I apologize to the French.
    Edit- Disclaimer 2, please read the description of my videos. I know there is more in the world than just the English colonies. (Listen to my accent...where do you think myself and most of my viewers are from) I want to make this a yearly thing and not a one off.

    What I want to see this holiday season is the Crewe of the Fancy wassailing and/or mumming in true traditional manner.

    And here I was wondering not long ago how pirates celebrated Christmas... only thing I felt safe assuming was the presence of alcohol. Great overview!
    One of my favorite stories of Puritan-Christmas-hate in England was from the reign of Cromwell (I should add the disclaimer that this comes off the top of my head)...apparently a certain housewife decided to defy the laws against Christmas celebrations by making a plum pudding. She had just finished removing it from the oven when she heard a group of troopers approaching. Fearing they'd smell her heretical pudding and break in to "confiscate" it, she hid it under a bed... which promptly caught on fire when her back was turned.

      I have heard that one as well. As this was more or less an intro to a yearly special, I may cover that at a later date. I am not sure if it is true or not, but I have heard it.

      @@thecreweofthefancy It does have the sound of something the Puritans might have noised abroad as a warning to other would-be revelers, regardless of whether or not it was 100% true.

    I do think it's interesting that the Dutch images you use most likely are not related to christmas.
    For Instance the "bean king" painting in the Netherlands are associated with the 3-kings feast held on januari 6th.
    Its related but not exactly christmas. And for the Dutch seemed to have been celebrated more.
    For instance during the wintering on Nova-Zembla there is no mention of christmas but they did celebrate 3 kings feast.
    I also spotted a St, Nicholas feast image, with in the Netherlands is unrelated to christmas and celebrated 5th and 6th of december.
    (Krampus is also related to this feast in Austria, the christmass connection is American made)
    For the rest great video.

      In Italy, so catholic tradition, the 6 of december is Saint Nicholas, start of Christmas time, and the 6 of january is Epiphany, the end of the festive period.

      Listen, it's not my fault you all didn't teach the English how to paint day to day life so hundreds of years laters we have the choice of my pretty face or making Dutch images work. Haha

    I didn't know that pirate's celebrated Christmas especially being on a rotten tub boat nearly all day. I know that Vikings celebrated Yule or winter soleces which Christmas was inspired by it. What type of things would they have gifted each other for Christmas. Banning Christmas was a bad idea especially in the UK during that time.
