The two men maintained a special relationship with ecclesiastical byzantine music. Kontoglou was a famous and very talented Greek hagiographer, as well as an author. He was born in 1895 in Aivali, Asia Minor and died in 1965 in Athens after a car accident which happened in 1963. His archive was presented in 2014 by his two grandchildren to the Byzantine Museum in Athens where it is open to everybody for study and research. New documents still enrich Kontoglou’s archive like the above mentioned correspondence with Elias Bogdanopoulos, a lawyer and hymnographer from Patras. Their letters were written between 1960 and 1963 and their main subject was monophonic byzantine music. Both of them were fanatic opponents of the polyphonic –western type– chanting in Christian Orthodox Greek churches. So, their articles and letters are talking about the harmony of byzantine arts generally and especially of the monophonic –eastern chanting– in Athen’s churches.","PeriodicalId":38484,"journal":{"name":"Byzantin Symmeikta","volume":"30 1","pages":"241-281"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43761458","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The text offers an interesting description of the life of a saint whose feast ceased to be commemorated throughout the years. The previously unknown acolouthy and vita found in the Synaxarion of Constantinople are used as sources for the narration of the saint’s life. It is, however, worth mentioning that the acolouthy offers new information about the life of the saint which is not included in his vita.","PeriodicalId":38484,"journal":{"name":"Byzantin Symmeikta","volume":"30 1","pages":"231-239"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41717017","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
