The Passíusálmar or Passion Hymns are a collection of 50 poetic texts written by the Icelandic minister and poet, Hallgrímur Pétursson. The texts explore the Passion narrative, as traditionally presented, from the point where Christ enters the Garden of Gethsemane to his death and burial. Hallgrímur began composing the work in 1656, while serving as pastor of Saurbær in Hvalfjörður. It took him three years to complete, the final poem being written in May 1659; the first edition was published seven years later, in 1666. By the end of the century they had become so popular in Iceland that five editions had been published. Since that time, they have been reprinted more than 75 times, a unique achievement in Icelandic literature. The poems were translated into many other languages, including L

  • The Passíusálmar or Passion Hymns are a collection of 50 poetic texts written by the Icelandic minister and poet, Hallgrímur Pétursson. The texts explore the Passion narrative, as traditionally presented, from the point where Christ enters the Garden of Gethsemane to his death and burial. Hallgrímur began composing the work in 1656, while serving as pastor of Saurbær in Hvalfjörður. It took him three years to complete, the final poem being written in May 1659; the first edition was published seven years later, in 1666. By the end of the century they had become so popular in Iceland that five editions had been published. Since that time, they have been reprinted more than 75 times, a unique achievement in Icelandic literature. The poems were translated into many other languages, including Latin, English, Chinese and Danish. The first English edition was published in 1913. In the 1950s a new translation was made by Arthur Charles Gook. This new translation received the imprimatur of the Bishop of Iceland, Sigurbjörn Einarsson, and is published by Hallgrímskirkja. In addition, a selection of texts were translated by Anglican Bishop Charles Venn Pilcher and published in a pamphlet entitled "Thirty-One Meditations on Christ's Passion"; this translation, although incomplete, is regarded as more faithful to Hallgrímur's Lutheran theology. The Passíusálmar quickly became an important part of Icelandic religious expression, being sung or read during Lent in every Icelandic home; today, they are broadcast on the radio during that time of year. They have been set to music by many composers of Icelandic church music, including Þorkell Sigurbjörnsson and , but use outside Iceland is rare. (en)
  • Les Psaumes de la Passion (en islandais Passíusálmar) sont une collection de cinquante poèmes écrits en 1659 par le poète et pasteur luthérien islandais Hallgrímur Pétursson. Par leur nombre, ils se rapprochent des Meditationes sacrae (1606) de Johann Gerhard et leur style, des poèmes sur la Passion du Christ d'Andreas Gryphius Tränen über das Leiden Jesu Christi (1657). Ces hymnes sur la souffrance et la mort du Christ étaient un genre littéraire courant en Scandinavie et en Allemagne dès la fin du 17e siècle.Ils étaient composés pour les cultes mais aussi pour un usage domestique, permettant aux populations rurales qui ne pouvaient pas se rendre à l'église, de suivre la liturgie de la semaine sainte chez eux. Si le style poétique du Passíusálmar est moins complexe que celui des autres compositions de Hallgrímur, il mêle images et réflexions abstraites, un trait propre à la littérature méditative. Son écriture est fondée sur des figures rhétoriques comme l'accumulation, les périphrases, l'apostrophe, les répétitions, chiasmes, antithèses, métaphores, oxymores. L'appellation Passíusálmar est un abrégé du titre originel : Historia pínunnar og dauðans Drottins vors Jesú Kristi, með hennar sérlegustu lærdóms-, áminningar- og huggunargreinum, ásamt bænum og þakkargjörðum, í sálmum og söngvísum með ýmsum tónum samsett og skrifuð anno 1659, (Histoire de la peine et de la douleur de notre Seigneur Jésus-Christ...). Quelques hymnes du Passíusálmar ont été traduits et publiés en anglais par Charles Pilcher en 1913. (fr)
