Byzantine Book Festival

As part of the inaugural Byzantine Book Festival (5-7 February 2021) hosted by the University of Edinburgh, Dr Olivier Delouis and Dr Andrew Mellas spoke about our lecturer’s recent publication, Liturgy and the Emotions in Byzantium. They discussed how the emotion of compunction became a significant part of the constellation of liturgical feeling that Byzantine hymnody evoked during the faithful’s journey to Pascha.
