Metrical Psalmody in Print and Practice
Author: Dr Timothy Duguid
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 1409468941
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
During the Reformation, the Book of Psalms became one of the most well-known books of the Bible. This was particularly true in Britain, where people of all ages, social classes and educational abilities memorized and sang poetic versifications of the psalms. Those written by Thomas Sternhold and John Hopkins became the most popular, and the simple tunes developed and used by English and Scottish churches to accompany these texts were carried by soldiers, sailors and colonists throughout the English-speaking world. Among these tunes were a number that are still used today, including ‘Old Hundredth’, ‘Martyrs’, and ‘French’. This book is the first to consider both English and Scottish metrical psalmody, comparing the two traditions in print and practice. It combines theological literary and musical analysis to reveal new and ground-breaking connections between the psalm texts and their tunes, which it traces in the English and Scottish psalters printed through 1640. Using this new analysis in combination with a more thorough evaluation of extant church records, Duguid contends that Britain developed and maintained two distinct psalm cultures, one in England and the other in Scotland.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Book of Psalms, in an English Metrical Version: Founded on the Basis of the Authorized Bible Translation, and Compared With the Original Hebrew; With Notes Critical and Illustrative Highly as the Psalms are generally esteemed in the character of devotional exercises, it may be doubted whether they hold that rank in the character of poetical compositions to which they arc intitled. Yet their excellence in this respect is unquestionable: so that of the Psalms in particular may that be affirmed, which the greatest of our poets hath affirmed generally concerning "those frequent songs throughout the Law and the Prophets," that "not in their divine argument alone, but in the very critical art of composition, they may be easily made appear over all the kinds of lyrick poesy to be incomparable." At the same time I am persuaded, that a due perception and feeling of such excellence is signally conducive to their effect in the higher department of religious and moral improvement, for which after all they were composed, and without which they are no better than "sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal." With these impressions I undertook, and with the same impressions continually more and more deeply and firmly fixed, I have prosecuted and completed the following version, which I beg leave to introduce to the reader with a few expository observations.
