Summary:

"The world of Byzantine liturgical book types is fascinating but also confusing. While they are central to the study and celebration of Byzantine Liturgy, no one work offers an overview of their history, contents, and structure. This volume offers for the first time an introduction to the major types of Byzantine liturgical books, their taxonomy, origins, development, and contents."-- Provided by publisher.
