Oral Traditions of Italo-Albanian Communities in Sicily and Calabria1 Oliver Gerlach Abstract: The main difference with respect to the Balkans is that Italo-Greek as well as Arbëresh communities had been rural throughout the centuries. Hence, the community itself did the job of the choir during Orthodox celebrations, which became only possible in certain communities belonging to two Archdioceses of the Byzantine rite: Lungro in Calabria and Piana degli Albanesi on Sicily. Within the catholic church they were allowed to celebrate the Greek rite, but this became possible due to a new law in church administration which existed since the 18th century. The question if there did really exist a continuous oral transmission since the arrival of Albanian emigrants during the last decades of the 15th century, and in as far they adapted to local customs of the Italo-Byzantine tradition which had survived around the Archimandritates in Italy, has not been an issue of historical research yet.

  • Salvation and the Free Life of the Spirit in the Orthodox Canonical Tradition
    A JOURNAL OF ORTHODOX FAITH AND CULTURE ROAD TO EMMAUS Help support Road to Emmaus Journal. The Road to Emmaus staff hopes that you find our journal inspiring and useful. While we offer our past articles on-line free of charge, we would warmly appreciate your help in covering the costs of producing this non-profit journal, so that we may continue to bring you quality articles on Orthodox Christianity, past and present, around the world. Thank you for your support. Please consider a donation to Road to Emmaus by visiting the Donate page on our website. SALVATION AND THE FREE LIFE OF THE SPIRIT IN THE ORTHODOX CANONICAL TRADITION As Professor Emeritus of Canon Law at Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology and con- sultant on canonical issues to the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North America and other North American jurisdictions, Dr. Lewis J. Patsavos is the most respected and experienced Orthodox canonist in the West. Esteemed by hierarchs, colleagues, and decades of students for his tradi- tional, incisive, and yet warmly pastoral approach to the Holy Canons, Dr. Patsavos offers Road to Emmaus readers a rich and often surprising introduction to the canonical tradition of the Orthodox Church. RTE: Dr. Patsavos, to most laymen, Orthodox canon law appears to be a compilation of centuries of rules that command or forbid various behaviors with rather strict penalties for not fulfilling them. Reading the collection of canons in The Rudder is daunting, and many of us find it difficult to recon- cile them with the real circumstances of our lives.

  • Abstracts 2Nd RICONTRANS Workshop ICONS in MOTION
    9-11 SEPTEMBER 2021 Abstracts 2nd RICONTRANS Workshop ICONS IN MOTION: RUSSIAN RELIGIOUS ART, VISUAL CULTURE AND COLLECTIVE IDENTITIES IN THE BALKANS AND THE EAST MEDITERRANEAN LOCATION: UNIVERSITY OF BELGRADE | FACULTY OF PHILOSOPHY The RICONTRANS project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No. 818791) Visual Culture, Piety and Propaganda: Transfer and Reception of Russian Religious Art in the Balkans and the Eastern Mediterranean (16th – early 20th century) https://ricontrans-project.eu/ The Russian religious artefacts (icons and ecclesiastical furnishings), held in museums, church or monastery collections in the Balkans and the Eastern Mediterranean, constitute a body of valuable monuments hitherto largely neglected by historians and historians of art. These objects acquire various interrelated religious, ideological, political and aes- thetic meanings, value, and uses. Their transfer and reception constitutes a significant component of the wider process of transformation of the artistic language and visual culture in the region and its transition from medieval to modern idioms. It is at the same time a process reflecting the changing cultural and political relations between Russia and the Orthodox communities in the Ottoman Empire and its successor states in the Balkans over a long period of time (16th- early 20th century). In this dynamic transfer, piety, propaganda and visual culture appear intertwined in historically unexplored and theoretically provoking ways. RICONTRANS explores the thousands of Russian Icons and other religious art objects, brought from Russia to the Balkans from the 16th until the 20th century, preserved in monasteries, churches, and museum collections in the region.

  • Heraldic Representations from the ”Stavropoleos Monastery” in Bucharest
    QUAESTUS MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH JOURNAL HERALDIC REPRESENTATIONS FROM THE ”STAVROPOLEOS MONASTERY” IN BUCHAREST Laurentiu Stefan SZEMKOVICS, Camelia TEODORESCU Abstract: The study aims to highlight the engraved or carved blazons and coats of arms that exist at the Stavropoleos Monastery in the capital of Romania, Bucharest. For the elaboration of the present study, we have investigated the building of the monastery church and the funeral stones supported by the outer walls of its enclosure. Regarding the actual description of the different types of heraldic signs, we have complied with the norms of heraldic science and the recommendations of the former International Sigillography Committee. We have taken into account the interest that these heraldic vestiges may exercise upon specialists, teachers, students, students, but also for tourists. We have considered that such heraldic vestiges, used over time as ancestors, can serve both to a better understanding of historical phenomena and to decipher the symbols by which they have expressed their thoughts and aspirations. Our study is an impetus to detect, analyze and include these testimonies of the past in the scientific circuit. Keywords:monastery, church, coat of arms, blazons, heraldry. INTRODUCTION The Stavropoleos monastery, located right on the Stavropoleos street in Bucharest today, is a great tourist attraction. The church of the Stavropoleos Monastery (figure 1), dedicated to St. Archangel Mihail and Gavriil (Dumitrescu, 1907; Iliescu-Palanca, 1940), was erected during the second reign of Nicolae Mavrocordat, on October 30, 1724 (the date of the pisan), by the egumen of Ioanichie (Dumitrescu, 1907; Simionescu, 1931; Iliescu-Palanca, 1940; Constantinescu et al., 1994; Stoica et al., 2005; Diaconescu, 2006; Văetiși et al., 2008).

  • Aspects of the Paternity of Metropolitan Iosif Naniescu's Liturgical Chant
    DOI: 10.2478/ajm-2018-0003 Artes. Journal of Musicology no. 17-18 2018 74-88 Aspects of the Paternity of Metropolitan Iosif Naniescu’s Liturgical Chant (1818-1902) CODRUȚ – DUMITRU SCURTU Theological Orthodox Seminary “Saint Nicholas” Râmnicu-Vâlcea ROMÂNIA∗ Abstract: The Romanian Orthodox Church in the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century had a valuable generation of hierarchs protopsalts, composers, translators and promoters of the psaltic music of the Byzantine tradition. From this exceptional generation, Iosif Naniescu is the most valuable composer and interpreter of the 19th century psaltic music. By his rich musical work, Metropolitan Iosif stands out as a reference point for the composition and translation of Greek psaltic chanting. Thanks to the original compositions and translations from the old music notation system, Iosif Naniescu may be included among the promoters of the Christian music notation system in our country alongside Macarie the Monk (with whom he would collaborate), Anton Pann (with whom he bound a close friendship between 1839-1854), and Dimitrie Suceveanu (whom he promoted as a protopsalter of Moldavia). The quality of his performance is highlighted by the countless written testimonies over time. Iosif Naniescu shows a special talent and zeal in his widespread work of over 100 musical manuscripts (stored in our country and in the Holy Mountain of Athos); he is also acknowledged for the Psalms of Time, which he copied in anthologies besides his own chants. Therefore, the present article comes to assert the origins of his chants and pays tribute to classical music of Byzantine tradition.
