Inhoud:

Traces the development of the portrayal of the Virgin Mary in Byzantium between c.400 and 1000, especially as expressed in liturgical texts. Focuses on three literary genres that were used to promote and celebrate her cult, including homilies, hymns, and hagiography, and explores the apparent contradictions in her nature.
