Theology and Poetry in Early Byzantium: The Kontakia of Romanos the Melodist
Gador-Whyte, Sarah (Australian Catholic University, Melbourne)
Romanos' lively and dramatic hymns are a highlight of Byzantine literary invention. This book examines the rhetorical embodiment of theological themes in these kontakia. Through rhetorical techniques like dialogue, metaphor and vivid description, biblical stories and theological concepts are performed, adapted and vivified.
