  • Coney Island is a peninsula and beach on the Atlantic Ocean in southern Brooklyn, New York, United States. The site was formerly an outer barrier island, but became partially connected to the mainland by landfill.<br />
<br />
Coney Island is possibly best known as the site of amusement parks and a major resort that reached their peak during the first half of the 20th century. It declined in popularity after World War II and endured years of neglect. In recent years, the area has seen the opening of MCU Park and has become home to the minor league baseball team the Brooklyn Cyclones.<br />
<br />
The neighborhood of the same name is a community of 60,000 people in the western part of the peninsula, with Sea Gate to its west, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east, and Gravesend to the north.<br />
<br />
The Native American inhabitants of the region, the Lenape, called the island Narrioch--meaning "land without shadows"--because, as with other south shore Long Island beaches, its orientation means the beach remains in sunlight all day.<br />
<br />
Coney Island appears to be the English adaptation of the Dutch name Conyne Eylandt, or Konijneneiland in modern Dutch spelling. The word "coney" was popular in English at the time as an alternative for rabbit. Coney came into the English language through the Old French word conil, which itself derived from the Latin word for rabbit, cuniculus. As on other Long Island barrier islands, Coney Island had many and diverse rabbits, and rabbit hunting prospered until resort development eliminated their habitat. The Dutch name is found on the New Netherland map of 1639 by Johannes Vingboon, which is before any known English records.The English name "Conney Isle" appeared on maps as early as 1690, and by 1733 the modern name, Coney Island, was used.

Coney Island appears to be the English adaptation of the Dutch name Conyne Eylandt, or Konijneneiland in modern Dutch spelling. The word "coney" was popular in English at the time as an alternative for rabbit. Coney came into the English language through the Old French word conil, which itself derived from the Latin word for rabbit, cuniculus. As on other Long Island barrier islands, Coney Island had many and diverse rabbits, and rabbit hunting prospered until resort development eliminated their habitat. The Dutch name is found on the New Netherland map of 1639 by Johannes Vingboon, which is before any known English records.The English name "Conney Isle" appeared on maps as early as 1690, and by 1733 the modern name, Coney Island, was used.

  • Coney Island is a peninsula and beach on the Atlantic Ocean in southern Brooklyn, New York, United States. The site was formerly an outer barrier island, but became partially connected to the mainland by landfill.<br />
<br />
Coney Island is possibly best known as the site of amusement parks and a major resort that reached their peak during the first half of the 20th century. It declined in popularity after World War II and endured years of neglect. In recent years, the area has seen the opening of MCU Park and has become home to the minor league baseball team the Brooklyn Cyclones.<br />
<br />
The neighborhood of the same name is a community of 60,000 people in the western part of the peninsula, with Sea Gate to its west, Brighton Beach and Manhattan Beach to its east, and Gravesend to the north.<br />

  • El Postiguet, Coco beach<br />
Le mot « feria », qui désignait à l'origine une manifestation économique bien souvent agricole, signifie encore « foire ». <br />
Dans le domaine des loisirs, une « feria » est toujours rattachée à un cycle de spectacles taurins, ainsi que les festivités qui accompagnent les courses de taureaux. <br />
L'origine de la férie est toujours liée à une fête votive, comme la Feria de San Isidro, patron de la cité de Madrid. <br />
La feria rend hommage à un laboureur qui faisait la charité avec sa femme Maria Torribia, bien qu'ils fussent eux-mêmes dans le plus grand dénuement.<br />
Vers le milieu du XIXe siècle, de nombreuses femmes d’agriculteurs gitans ont commencé à fréquenter ces foires vêtues de leurs longues robes faites à la main à partir de vieux vêtements. Elles étaient souvent ornées de volants afin de rendre les tissus simples plus beaux et plus esthétiques.<br />
En Andalousie, les plus anciennes ferias correspondent à l'ancienneté des arènes notamment la ville de Jerez de la Frontera dont les arènes comptent parmi les plus anciennes d'Espagne. <br />
Malaga offre au mois d'août la Feria de Málaga, comme pratiquement toutes les villes des régions autonomes espagnoles possédant des arènes de première, deuxième ou troisième catégorie. <br />
En 2003, en Espagne, on comptait 598 spectacles taurins majeurs (corridas formelles) et mineurs (novilladas, becerradas), et 1146 spectacles taurins populaires comprenant les lâchers de taureaux, les toro de fuego. <br />
En 2004, on comptait 810 corridas formelles, 555 novilladas piquées, 380 rejoneos, et 187 spectacles mixtes ou festivals piqués.<br />
Contrairement à ce que l’on pourrait penser, les ferias ne sont pas l’apanage de l’Europe. On trouve des ferias en Amérique latine (Mexique, Pérou, Colombie et Venezuela). Au Mexique, la plus grande feria est la feria nationale de San Marcos, la plus ancienne du pays. Sa première édition a eu lieu en 1604.

En 2003, en Espagne, on comptait 598 spectacles taurins majeurs (corridas formelles) et mineurs (novilladas, becerradas), et 1146 spectacles taurins populaires comprenant les lâchers de taureaux, les toro de fuego. <br />
En 2004, on comptait 810 corridas formelles, 555 novilladas piquées, 380 rejoneos, et 187 spectacles mixtes ou festivals piqués.<br />
Contrairement à ce que l’on pourrait penser, les ferias ne sont pas l’apanage de l’Europe. On trouve des ferias en Amérique latine (Mexique, Pérou, Colombie et Venezuela). Au Mexique, la plus grande feria est la feria nationale de San Marcos, la plus ancienne du pays. Sa première édition a eu lieu en 1604.

  • Le mot « feria », qui désignait à l'origine une manifestation économique bien souvent agricole, signifie encore « foire ». <br />
Dans le domaine des loisirs, une « feria » est toujours rattachée à un cycle de spectacles taurins, ainsi que les festivités qui accompagnent les courses de taureaux. <br />
L'origine de la férie est toujours liée à une fête votive, comme la Feria de San Isidro, patron de la cité de Madrid. <br />
La feria rend hommage à un laboureur qui faisait la charité avec sa femme Maria Torribia, bien qu'ils fussent eux-mêmes dans le plus grand dénuement.<br />
Vers le milieu du XIXe siècle, de nombreuses femmes d’agriculteurs gitans ont commencé à fréquenter ces foires vêtues de leurs longues robes faites à la main à partir de vieux vêtements. Elles étaient souvent ornées de volants afin de rendre les tissus simples plus beaux et plus esthétiques.<br />

  • Abrivado Festival 2023<br />
Saintes Maries de la Mer - France - 11/11/2023<br />
1,000 horses, 200 gardians and thousands of enthusiasts were on hand on the beach at Saintes Maries de la Mer on November 10 and 11, 2023 for one of the biggest Abrivado festivals in the south of France. <br />
A unique encounter between the Camargue, horses, bulls and all lovers of the bullfighting tradition.<br />
Every year on 11/11 at 11am, 11 abrivados set off on a 6 km race to the arena.<br />
The abrivado, an emblematic practice of Camargue tradition, means "arrival" in Provençal. <br />
Manadiers and gardians bring the cocardier bulls from the meadows to the arena, blocking them in the middle of their horses to form a triangle.<br />
The abrivado is deeply rooted in Camargue culture and history. But while this tradition dates back several hundred years, the abrivado as an organized, ritualized bullfighting event appears to be a more recent development. The abrivado tradition as we know it today seems to have taken root in the 19th century.

The abrivado, an emblematic practice of Camargue tradition, means "arrival" in Provençal. <br />
Manadiers and gardians bring the cocardier bulls from the meadows to the arena, blocking them in the middle of their horses to form a triangle.<br />
The abrivado is deeply rooted in Camargue culture and history. But while this tradition dates back several hundred years, the abrivado as an organized, ritualized bullfighting event appears to be a more recent development. The abrivado tradition as we know it today seems to have taken root in the 19th century.
