The Bible in Byzantium: Appropriation, Adaptation, Interpretation (ed.)

This volume explores the reception of the Byzantine experience of the Bible. Several sessions at the ISBL held in Vienna in 2014 on built the basis of this volume. The wide range of source materials of this volume—from manuscripts and military handbooks to lead seals and pilgrim guides—allows insights into a vivid liturgical tradition, which shapes Orthodox Christianity up today. The volume shows the multitude of strategies for the engagement with the Biblical text and the manifold ways in which the Bible message was experienced, articulated and brought to life on a daily basis.
