Birgitte Christine Kaas, married Huitfeldt (2 October 1682 – 14 August 1761) was a Norwegian poet and translator of psalms. A member of the Kaas family, she was the daughter of Governor of Christiania and Trondheim Hans Kaas (1640–1700) and granddaughter of fiefholder of Lister Jørgen Kaas. She was married to Lieutenant-General Henrik Jørgen Huitfeldt. In 1733 King Christian VI visited Norway, accompanied by his mother-in-law. She encouraged Kaas to use her talents, and the following year, she published the collection ''Nogle aandelige Psalmer. Overs. af det Tydske Sprog paa Dansk af den, Som inderlig begiærer at have udi sit Hierte Bestandig Christi Kierlighed'', consisting of 28 translated psalms. Three of these are included in ''Norsk Salmebok''. Most of her works, especially the non-religious poems, were lost when her house burned down in 1746. One of her descendants was Henrik Jørgen Huitfeldt-Kaas. ==References== *(Biography ) in ''Norsk biografisk leksikon'' 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「Birgitte Christine Kaas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
