"Let books be your dining table, / And you shall be full of delights. / Let them be your
mattress,/
And you shall sleep restful nights" (St. Ephraim the Syrian).

The Byzantine Pre-Sanctified Liturgy

In the forthcoming issue of Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies, Peter Galadza, titular of the Kule Family Chair in Eastern Christian Liturgy at the Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky Institute of Eastern Christian Studies at Saint Paul University in Ottawa, has a long review of a new book from Peeters in Belgium:

Stefanos Alexopoulos, The Pre-Sanctified Liturgy in the Byzantine Rite: A Comparative Analysis of its Origins, Evolution, and Structural Components (2009), xvi+355pp.

Fr. Peter notes that this work will be the scholarly standard for years to come.
