The Passion Hymns of Iceland is a book of translations of hymns written by Hallgrim Petursson and other Icelandic hymn writers. The book was compiled by C. Venn Pilcher and originally published in 1913. The hymns in the book focus on the Passion of Christ, and are written in a traditional style that reflects the Icelandic religious tradition. The book is divided into two sections: the first section contains translations of Petursson's Passion hymns, which were written in the 17th century and are widely regarded as some of the finest examples of Icelandic religious poetry. The second section contains translations of hymns from the modern Icelandic hymn book, which includes hymns written by a variety of Icelandic authors. The book is intended for use by Christians and scholars interested in Icelandic religious poetry. It provides a unique insight into the religious culture of Iceland and the role of poetry in religious expression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
