The relationship between the hymn?s text, music, and illustrations has yet to be explored in detail. The contributions here argue that these painted cycles should be studied as a result of interaction between hymnography, psalmody, and visual art, not just as mere illustration of text. Highlighting illuminated and notated manuscript copies of the hymn as evidence for varied liturgical and devotional practices, they examine how icons and murals based on the Akathistos functioned as constituent elements of sacred space. Focusing on intermediality, this book helps bridge methodological gaps between scholarly approaches to medieval culture. Jon C. Cubas Díaz is Lecturer at the University of Göttingen, Germany. He previously held teaching and research positions at the University of Heidelberg and the University of Rostock. 410 0$aNew Approaches to Byzantine History and Culture,$x2730-9371 606 $aEurope$xHistory$x476-1492 606 $aCivilization$xHistory 606 $aMusic$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHistory of Medieval Europe 606 $aCultural History 606 $aHistory of Music 615 0$aEurope$xHistory$x476-1492. 615 0$aCivilization$xHistory. 615 0$aMusic$xHistory and criticism. 615 14$aHistory of Medieval Europe. 615 24$aCultural History. 615 24$aHistory of Music. 676 $a940.902 702 $aCubas Díaz$b Jon C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910992772403321 996 $aThe Akathistos Hymnos and Intermedial Compositional Processes in Later Byzantium$94349843 997 $aUNINA
