This volume by Gracia Grindal introduces English-speaking readers
to several significant yet unsung Lutheran women hymn writers from
the sixteenth century to the present. After a brief introductory
discussion of Elisabeth Cruciger, the first woman hymn writer of
the Reformation, Grindal provides fascinating profiles of these
talented Scandinavian women who "preached from home": Dorothe
Engelbretsdatter, Birgitte Hertz Boye, Berthe Canutte Aarflot, Lina
Sandell, Britt G. Hallqvist, and Lisbeth Smedegaard Andersen.
Grindal not only gives a biographical account of each woman her
life, her piety, her times but also offers sparkling new English
translations of each writer's key hymns. In the last chapter
Grindal recounts her own inspiring journey as a Lutheran woman hymn
writer. Her Preaching from Home will open the door to a world
previously unknown to most North Americans.
