Abstract (en)
Studies the process by which icons were integrated into the liturgy ca.10th-15th cs. Focuses especially on frescoes of ca.1380 in the Markov Manastir, near Skopje, which illustrate the final strophes of the Akathistos Hymn. The Akathistos was a weekly Friday evening office in honor of the Virgin which in the 12th c. involved both a procession with large icons and an evening memorial conducted at the tombs. Argues that these large signa or processional icons were apparently the first to play an indispensable role in a liturgical office.
