Faroese Literature

 

3.6.5 Faroese literature and language

The Faroese language resembles both Icelandic and Western Norwegian dialects. It is almost mutually intelligible with other North Germanic languages - at least in its written form. The written form of Faroese was established in the 19th century by Venzel Hammershaimb and modeled after Icelandic with almost the same alphabet. Written Faroese apperared rather late and at a time when the language was under strong pressure from Danish, which had become the established language for the church and civil servants of the Faroes. But when written Faroese was established, it meant a great boost for Faroese culture and language. Today the Faroes have one of the highest number of books published per capita. The best known authors are William Heinesen (1900-1991) and Heðin Brú (alias Hans Jacob Jacobsen, 1901-1987).
