Holy, Holy, Holy
Were Byzantine writings about the intermingling of human and angelic voices within ecclesiastical settings merely reflections of mystical theology, or were they actual observations about the movement of sound? Focusing on Thessaloniki, we consider how Byzantine writers described the voices of angels, how certain chants in the divine services animated the voices of celestial beings, and how and where painters represented angels, particularly withi…
R obert G. O usterhout . Visualizing Community
The focus of Robert G. Ousterhout’s splendidly illustrated volume Visualizing Community: Art, Material Culture, and Settlement in Byzantine Cappadocia is Cappadocia, a geologically distinctive region in central Anatolia marked by hundreds of rock-cut structures, many of them preserving the exquisite remains of monumental decoration. Although it is located far from the Byzantine imperial capital, the architecture and decoration of the region’s man…
Soundscapes of Byzantium
In 2014, an international team of scholars measured the acoustical properties of eight Byzantine churches in Thessaloniki. This article examines two of the tested churches, the Acheiropoietos basilica and the Cathedral of Hagia Sophia, in order to provide objective and phenomenological accounts of how sound—both chanted and spoken—was produced and received. Framing the soundscape of each church through an examination of its original shape, furnis…

Nuns in the Byzantine Countryside
Μέχρι σήμερα η έρευνα εστίαζε κυρίως στις περισσότερο γνωστές μοναχές αριστοκρατικής καταγωγής που ζούσαν στις μονές των αστικών κέντρων. Σε αυτό το άρθρο παρουσιάζονται στοιχεία για έναν ουσιαστικό αριθμό γυναικών μοναχών στην ύπαιθρο του ύστερου Βυζαντίου (13ος-15ος αι.). Τα στοιχεία αυτά προέρχονται κυρίως από αφιερωτικές επιγραφές σε μικρούς ναούς χωριών της Κρήτης, της Λακωνίας, της Μάνης και της Ρόδου. Πολλές από αυτές τις μοναχές ήταν ηλικ…
