Sacralizing Violence in Byzantium is the first book to examine the complex and shifting perceptions of premodern Christians toward violence and war through the lens of hymnography, with a profound transformation in the early seventh century. Demacopoulos reveals how Byzantine culture dramatized, authorized, and even celebrated violence.
