More about the book
Exploring the significance of maritime hymns, this essay highlights their role within maritime literature, encompassing both fictional and non-fictional sea-related texts. It emphasizes that these hymns transcend mere Christian themes for sailors, offering a metaphorical journey that connects diverse cultures beyond national and denominational lines. By comparing hymns from Germany, England, and the U.S., the work uncovers the archetypal sea journey of the soul as a vital element of European cultural and spiritual heritage.
