Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a detailed study of the German Protestant hymn repertoire that evolved out of the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) and the revival of Lutheran hymnody in this period. The author traces the transformation of the Protestant hymn under the influence of external and internal factors, including the war's social and political effects, the emergence of new musical styles, the rise of literary academies, and the development of individualistic piety. The book examines prominent Lutheran hymn writers who emerged during and after the war, situating their work within the context of the broader literary and theological trends of the time. The result is a comprehensive analysis of the thematic depth and richness of the German Protestant hymn tradition during a pivotal period of its history.
