A History of the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom

Résumé du livre

This study comprises the second volume of a projected five-volume history. The term "diptychs" is used here in its proper technical sense for the diaconal proclamations found either in the anaphora or preanaphora of eastern eucharistic liturgies. No one has previously attempted a detailed historico-liturgical analysis of this important unit of Late Antique Byzantine Liturgy. That is what this short monograph attempts.
