The Anointing of the Sick

Paul Meyendorff, the Alexander Schmemann Professor of Liturgical Theology at St. Vladimir's Seminary in Crestwood, New York, has a new book out:

The Anointing of the Sick (SVS Press, 2009).

Logos: A Journal of Eastern Christian Studies will feature a review of this next year from Mark Morozowich, a professor of liturgy at Catholic University of America. Fr. Mark wrote his dissertation under the great Byzantine liturgical historian Robert Taft at the Oriental Institute in Rome.

  1. This is a great book. It and the accompanying service book are big sellers for SVS Press.
