Unlike its more pristine relation, the hymn, the carol has an
earthy and exuberant heritage derived from folk dances and pagan
festivals. Carols are associated with festive occasions that often
involve eating and drinking, and there have even been attempts to
ban them in earlier centuries. Ian Bradley's expansive collection
of carols explores the richness of the genre both chronologically
and geographically, placing each carol in its historical context,
from the fifteenth century to the 1990s, and covering every variety
of carol, from African-American spirituals and Caribbean calypso to
old favorites such as "O Come, All Ye Faithful" and "Away in a
Manger". Here are enthralling anecdotes, long-lost verses, and
tidings of comfort and joy for all.
