Performing Orthodox Ritual in Byzantium
White, Andrew Walker (George Mason University, Virginia)
A groundbreaking study exploring the origins of Byzantine ritual, the rites of Greek Orthodoxy, and its unique relationship with traditional theatre. The work argues that the Church's rites were composed by public intellectuals, and performs an in-depth study of a late Byzantine rite, the Service of the Furnace.
