Hymns of Holy Scripture
About the necessity of the appearance of some specialized works regarding the Byzantine hymnography, I related in the first volume dedicated to the condacs of Saint Roman Melodul. The encouragement and positive signals we received determined us to elaborate a second volume dedicated to the works of the Holy Roman, works that will not only be read, but truly understood and, later, transposed into the lives of the faithful. The volume is opened by the study entitled “A new species of Byzantine hymnography: the Kontakion. Brief introduction to its defining elements ". The signatory of the text highlights both the history of the appearance of this genre of Byzantine hymnography, and the elements of composition (refrain, metrical structure, stanza), especially important for the study of the hymnography of the Holy Roman.
