Christmas Carols

Christmas Carols

Christmas Carols (engl., spr. krißmās kärrols), Weihnachtsgesänge, z. T. sehr alten Ursprungs, da sie noch des heidnischen Jul-Ebers gedenken. Das Eberlied wurde schon 1170 am Hofe Heinrichs I. und (mit lateinischem Text) noch 1840 im Queen's College zu Oxford bei Austragung des Eberhauptes gesungen. Eine Sammlung solcher C. C. gab Wynkyn de Worde 1521 heraus, dann Gilbert 1823, T. Wright in der »Percy Society« (Bd. 16), zuletzt Bullen (Lond. 1885).
