Liturgical ritual was a major element of the Christian cultures of
Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. This was especially true of
Byzantium, where court and church ritual, often intertwined,
achieved a splendour unparalleled by any other aspect of civic or
religious life. In this volume Robert Taft has brought together a
series of studies on the formation and development of these rites
and on the meaning they had for contemporaries. Particular articles
look at the role of Jerusalem, Constantinople, then Mt Athos, in
this process, and at the liturgy of St John Chrysostom. Also
included are two important studies focusing on the role of the bema
in the Syriac Church.
