Hans Egede Saabye (July 1746– August 31, 1817) was a Danish priest and a missionary to Greenland.〔(''Hans Egede Saabye'' (Den Store Dansk) )〕 He was born on the island of Strynø in southern Denmark. He was the son of parish priest Jørgen Saabye and Petronella Egede, one of the daughters of Hans Egede, the apostle of Greenland, whose Bergen Company had begun the Danish settlement there in 1721.〔(''Præst i Vålse Hans Egede Saabye'' (johnoglis.dk) )〕 He graduated from Roskilde secondary school in 1764 and earned a degree in theology in 1767. In 1768, he was admitted to The Greenland Seminary (''Seminarium Groenlandicum'') and was instructed in the Greenlandic language by his maternal uncle, Poul Egede. In 1770, he was ordained into the ministry of the Church of Denmark. He was married to Vibeke Margrethe Thye (1748-1833) in April 1770. In the same year, he went as a missionary to Claushavn and Christianshåb in Greenland. In 1779, he became a parish priest in Vålse on Falster in south-eastern Denmark and in 1811 moved to Udby on Funen, where he died in 1817. 〔(''Grønland som del af den bibelske fortælling – en 1700-tals studie'' "Greenland as Part of the Biblical Narrative – a Study of the 18th-Century" ) 〕 While in Greenland, he became an accomplished botanist. The diary from his stay in Greenland was published in 1816 and received much attention among ethnographers as well as friends of the mission. It has been translated into Swedish, German, Dutch, and English. 〔(Saabye, Hans Egede, in '' Dansk biografisk Lexikon'' (1st ed. 1900) )〕 ==Bibliography== *''Brudstykker af en Dagbog holden i Grønland i Aarene 1770-1778'' (1816) *''Fragmenter af en dagbok, hållen i Grönland'' (1817) *''Bruchstükke eines Tagebuches gehalten in Grönland in den Jahren 1770 bis 1778'' (1817) *''Fragmenten mit een dagboek, gehouden i Groenland in de jaren 1770-78'' (1818) *''Greenland: being extracts from a journal kept in that country in the years 1770 to 1778'' (1818) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hans Egede Saabye」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
