From the Publisher:
"The Typikon Decoded: An Explanation of Byzantine Liturgical Practice
The Byzantine liturgy, with its beauty, its richness, and its depth, intrigues, inspires, and fascinates a great number of today’s Christians; and yet it remains for many almost inaccessible if not incomprehensible.

The Typikon, the liturgical book that contains the order of the liturgical celebration, is complex, whence the necessity of “decoding” it both for recent converts and for “cradle” Orthodox Christians desiring to deepen their liturgical observance.

And that “decoding” is the goal of this book. Developed from courses given at the Institut Saint-Serge in Paris, it covers the celebration of the offices throughout the Byzantine liturgical year. The organization and composition of the liturgical offices are first situated in the context of their historical development, and then are analyzed in detail from a practical point of view.

This explanation of Byzantine liturgical practice, the first of its kind in English, includes an extensive bibliography and comprehensive glossary.



Arcbishop Job Getcha holds a doctorate in theology. Formerly Dean of the Institut Saint-Serge in Paris, and professor there of liturgy and church history, Senior Scholar at the Institut Catholique de Paris, Fr Job is on the faculty at the Institute of Postgraduate Studies in Orthodox Theology at the Orthodox Center of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Chambesy, Switzerland.

Paul Meyendorff is the Fr Alexander Schmemann Professor of Liturgical Theology at St Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary, author of The Anointing of the Sick, and the Editor of this series."
