Description
  • Acathistos (also called Acathistus, Akathistos) – literally, "without sitting". The liturgical hymn or canticle that is sung solemnly in Byzantine-rite Slavonic churches on the Saturday of the fifth week of Lent, called The Saturday of the Acathistos. Alternatively, the word may be used to indicate a day on which that hymn is said or sung by clergy and laity alike while all stand, hence the name "without sitting". The text of twenty-four stanzas is based on the Gospel narratives of the Nativity, each stanza's initial letter being in strict alphabetical sequence, with the whole representing a complete Office in honor of the Virgin Mary commemorating the Annunciation. The hymn is therefore suitable for use on various feasts of the Mother of God. The authorship of the hymn is uncertain, but some assign it to St. Romanos the Melodist (d. 560), while others have suggested that the author was George Pisides, chartophylax at St. Sophia in Constantinoplein the early 7th century, and yet others claim that it was composed by the Monothelite patriarch of Constantinople, Sergius, as a thanksgiving for the city's deliverance from the Avars and Slavs in 626.
