'We can say with certainty that all these papers shed new light on the Marian cult in the Byzantine empire, especially from the sixth century onward, focusing on the social and anthropological interactions of this cult and devotion. The contributors use both textual and archaeological evidence in order to explore thematic areas neve explored before... This book is an amazing study and every scholarly library should have a copy.' Journal of Theological Studies
