Revancha de Mari Domingi
The intense expansion of the figure of Mari Domingi has been a milestone. Olentzero arrived earlier in the coal company, following Lesaka's model: He left in Pamplona in 1956, and soon, starting in 1970, mostly, he had conquered the entire Basque Country. Mari Domingi was published in 1994 by the Euskaltzale Bagera Association of San Sebastian, with the aim of offering children a day in Basque before they dispersed on holiday.
In fact, this task has been an argument to reject the character, who accepts its step by step without guaranteeing gender parity: the male, the female servant. And today, too, Mari Domingi does this in some places, because they don't let him bring gifts to everyone, even though the promoters themselves quickly raised him up, moving from postman to toy delivery with Olentzero.
He is also accused of another error: Form a heterosexual couple with Olentzero and become the symbol of the mother-child canonical family. Instead, there are those who claim the Olentzero queer, which is not male, but as the Orentzaro of the Leiac tradition, of varying character, when woman and when man.
Look, that noisy, rejected woman has become a famous Christmas character. Christmas magic or revenge of Mari Domingi, who knows
A really nice model. The problem is that in the open Basque Country the elimination of the male figure can last a long time. Until that happens, do we rule out Mari Domingi? Bage's men did not seek gender equality when they chose a woman, but the femininity of the figure may be the key to their success.
Also. In the old original song that has come to us, which was already sung in the youth of the grandmother of Pío Baroja, in 1820, they tell Mari Domingi that if he wants to go with others to Bethlehem he has to take out his old fona. However, they end up calling “come, come.”
And that's that noisy, rejected woman has become a famous Christmas character. Christmas magic or revenge of Mari Domingi, who knows. Left by their ancestors, melengueras and adornments, we see him with a skirt full of eyelashes, attached to his basking cousin in the singing and without a great artifact on his head, like Befana of Italy and Tante Arie de Jera. These are often the creatures of stories: for their modest exterior aspect, their powerful wonders.
