home search help worldguide ... Related Weblinks Malta Culture Mediterranean culture is dominant in Malta, but nearly 150 years of British rule have left their mark. English is an official language (along with Maltese), and bangers and mash aren't too hard to find. The Catholic Church is the custodian of national traditions, and its churches are the biggest landmarks in most towns and villages. The Maltese spend half the year celebrating their local patron saints, filling the streets with confetti and destroying their teeth with nougat and candy-floss. Although its influence is waning, Catholicism is a real force in most people's daily lives. Divorce and abortion are illegal, although younger generations have been trying to liberalise laws against these. Many linguists trace the origin of Maltese to the Phoenician occupation of the islands. Maltese, a Semitic language, has survived the influence of Romance languages for hundreds of years, though it bears traces of Sicilian, Italian, Spanish, French and English. Among the country's best-known writers are Francis Ebejer and Joseph Attard. Ironically, Malta is probably best known to the world through a book that isn't about Malta, Dashiell Hammett's The Maltese Falcon , the title of which refers to a statuette of mysterious origin.

Malta Culture Most people speak Maltese, a West Arabic dialect with some Italian words. English and Maltese are the official languages. Malta has both Maltese and English newspapers. The people of Malta's religion is Catholicism. For Catholics, religious faith means, above all, a wholehearted acceptance of God's revelation, which is the knowledge of himself and his will that God has revealed to humanity through Christ. A Catholic's faith in God is expressed in certain teachings. These teachings, based on the Bible, are found in declarations of church councils and popes and in short statements of faiths called creeds. The oldest and most authoritative of these creeds are the Apostles' creed and the Nicene creed. Catholics recite the Nicene creed at their central act of worship called the Eucharist or Mass. The creeds summarize Catholic beliefs concerning the trinity and creation ; sin, the incarnation, and salvation ; the nature of the church and life after death. These core doctrines, in turn, form the basic guidelines for how Catholics should live their life. Home Government Land People ... Other links

Country Info Malta Introduction Malta General Data Malta Maps Malta Culture ... Malta Time and Date Malta Culture Back to Top Malta's cultural influences stem largely from its history of foreign domination and the predominance of the Roman Catholic church. Folk traditions have evolved mainly around the festa to celebrate the patron saint of a village, marked by processions and fireworks. Good Friday also is celebrated with colourful processions in several villages. Imnarja, the Feast of St. Peter and St. Paul, which takes place on June 29, is the principal folk festival; it is highlighted by folksinging (ghana) contests and fried-rabbit picnics at Buskett. The annual Carnival is celebrated at Valletta with vigorous dancing displays that include the Parata, a sword dance commemorating the Maltese victory over the Turks in 1565, and Il-Maltija, the Maltese national dance. Football (soccer) is the most popular sport in Malta, and Ta' Qali National Stadium is the site of important local and international matches. Valletta is the centre of many of Malta's cultural institutions: the National Museum of Archaeology, the National Museum of Fine Arts, the War Museum, the Manoel Theatre (one of Europe's oldest theatres still in operation), and the Foundation for International Studies. The National Library of Malta dates from the late 18th century and houses a large collection as well as the archives of the Knights Hospitalers. The Folk Museum and the Museum of Political History are located at Vittoriosa. Until the early 1990s, Maltese radio and television stations had been operated exclusively by the Malta Broadcasting Authority, but a change in legislation has opened the way for privately operated broadcasting stations. There are two daily newspapers in Maltese and one in English.
