Come, Let Us Drink That Old Drink: Figures and Types in Orthodox Hymns – Webinar with Dr. Nicholas Roumas

Sunday, July 27, 2025, 4-30-6:00 pm Eastern Time

Join Dr. Nicholas Roumas to explore the ways Orthodox hymns use poetry to convey meaning. Poetic devices enrich hymns to levels of meaning that bare prose cannot convey. Do you see these excesses of meaning for yourself? Dr. Roumas will examine what kinds of poetic devices, structures, and exegetical methods Orthodox hymns use, what these figures accomplish, and why it all matters.
