The Byzantine Empire - the Christianized Roman Empire - defined itself in terms of correct theological belief, 'orthodoxy'. This book discusses how orthodoxy was defined; how orthodoxy was expressed in art and the music of the liturgy; and how it helped shape the Byzantine Empire's sense of its own identity.
