Jochumsson, Matthías

▪ Icelandic author
born November 11, 1835, Skógar, Thorskafjördur, Iceland
died December 18, 1920, Akureyri

      Icelandic poet, translator, journalist, dramatist, and editor whose versatility, intellectual integrity, and rich humanity established him as a national figure.

      The son of a poor farmer, Jochumsson at age 30 was ordained by the Lutheran theological college in Reykjavík and spent his working life as a clergyman until he retired on a poet's pension in 1900.

      Through his religious poetry, his hymns and funeral elegies, and his heroic narrative poems, Jochumsson preached Christian faith and humanity alongside the pagan virtues of the golden age of saga writing. His innumerable translations of didactic lyrics, patriotic poems, and hymns from the Scandinavian languages and from English and German illustrate those same qualities. He also translated into Icelandic several of Shakespeare's plays. In the early 1860s he wrote Iceland's first romantic play, Útilegumennirnir (1864; “The Outlaws,” later called Skugga-Sveinn after its principal character), which remains a popular national drama in Iceland.

      Jochumsson's internationalism, his free-thinking Christianity, and his unaffected assumption of greatness alienated some Icelandic contemporaries, but he was loved and admired by others as well as by Scandinavian writers generally. It is no accident that he is the author of Iceland's national anthem, the hymn "Ó, Gud vors lands" (“O, God of Our Land”).
