sunday holiday start - #7701
I’ve always been curious about the history of holidays, especially the concept of a Sunday holiday and when it started. Why was Sunday chosen as a universal day of rest in many cultures and countries, and how did this tradition evolve over time? From what I’ve read, Sunday became a day of rest in Western countries due to its religious significance in Christianity, marking the Sabbath and a day for worship. However, I’m interested in understanding how this tradition spread globally and whether other cultures and religions also played a role in shaping the Sunday holiday we observe today. Another question I have is about how the Sunday holiday became formalized in workplaces. Was it part of labor reforms or industrial revolutions that recognized the need for rest and a balanced work-life schedule? How did this influence countries like India, which adopted the concept during colonial rule? If anyone has studied the history of Sunday as a holiday, I’d love to know more about its origins and cultural variations. Are there places where other days of the week are designated as holidays, and what were the reasons behind these choices? Lastly, has the tradition of the Sunday holiday changed in modern times with the rise of flexible working schedules and remote work? I’m curious if the significance of Sunday as a universal day of rest is still as strong today as it was in the past.
