The Passion Play of Oberammergau is a book written by Janet H. Swift that explores the history and cultural significance of the world-famous Passion Play that takes place in the Bavarian village of Oberammergau every ten years. The book provides a detailed account of the origins of the play, which dates back to the 17th century, and the way it has evolved over time to become the elaborate production that it is today. Swift delves into the religious and political context of the play, as well as the controversies and criticisms that have surrounded it throughout its history. The book also features stunning photographs and illustrations that capture the beauty and drama of the Passion Play, making it a must-read for anyone interested in the history of theatre, religion, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
