Psalmebog For Kirke Og Hus
''Psalmebog for Kirke og Hus'' (''Hymnal for Church and Home''), better known as ''Hauges Salmebok'' (''Hauge's Hymnal''), was a Norwegian hymnal created by Andreas Hauge. On October 11, 1873, it was authorized for use in public worship in Norway by congregations that adopted it. The hymnal followed a draft version that Hauge had published in 1863. The hymnal was conservative both in its selection of hymns and in its language. It competed with the more popular ''Landstads kirkesalmebog ''Landstads kirkesalmebog'' (Landstad's Church Hymnal), often simply known as ''Landstads salmebok'' (Landstad's Hymnal), was the most important hymnal for the Church of Norway from 1870 to 1926.

Biography He was born in Aker in Akershus, Norway. He was the sole surviving son of Lutheran lay minister, Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771–1824) and Andrea Andersdatter Nyhus (1784–1815).

Landstads Kirkesalmebog
''Landstads kirkesalmebog'' (Landstad's Church Hymnal), often simply known as ''Landstads salmebok'' (Landstad's Hymnal), was the most important hymnal for the Church of Norway from 1870 to 1926. In 1852, Magnus Brostrup Landstad (1802–1880) started compiling a new church hymnal. At that time, three different hymnals were in use: Kingo's hymnal from 1699, Guldberg's hymnal from 1778, and '' Evangelisk-christelig Psalmebog'' (Lutheran-Christian Hymnal) from 1798. All three were therefore Danish and did not satisfy the Church's needs. In 1855, Landstad published a sample of his translations of Luther's hymns, and in 1856 he published a volume with Christmas hymns. In 1861 he presented his draft new hymnal with 640 hymns arranged in verse form. The draft was sharply criticized because of its use of dialect vocabulary; the bishop and hymnologist Johannes Skaar argued that Landstad had mixed peasant language and cultured language. Landstad replied to the criticism in his book ''Om ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Church Of Norway
The Church of Norway ( nb, Den norske kirke, nn, Den norske kyrkja, se, Norgga girku, sma, Nöörjen gærhkoe) is an evangelical Lutheran denomination of Protestant Christianity and by far the largest Christian church in Norway. The church became the state church of Norway around 1020, and was established as a separate church intimately integrated with the state as a result of the Lutheran reformation in Denmark–Norway which broke ties with the Holy See in 1536–1537; the King of Norway was the church's head from 1537 to 2012. Historically the church was one of the main instruments of royal power and official authority, and an important part of the state administration; local government was based on the church's parishes with significant official responsibility held by the parish priest. In the 19th and 20th centuries it gradually ceded most administrative functions to the secular civil service. The modern Constitution of Norway describes the church as the country's "peo ...
