Description
  • Irmologion (Heirmologion) – a liturgical book that contains the text of words and music or of words alone of the irmoi (irmos), or theme songs of the Canons, as well as the service sung in honor of our Lord, the Theotokos, and other major saints. This collection probably owes its origin to a time when, since the Canons were not sung in their entirety, most of the troparia eothina were simply read, and the irmos, or model, of each ode was sung. Because the cantors knew the tune of the irmosvery well, they did not need to have access to the great volumes that contained the Canon in its entirety. (Day, Peter. The Liturgical Dictionary of Eastern Christianity.Wellwood, 1993. P. 129-130) The book forms part of the collection of old prints and special collections of UCU Library. The book in old hardcover (leather, pressed paper). The book is a manuscript. The book contains marginal notes in graphite pencil and oil pen in blue. The title page and last pages are missing. The pages are in linear frames, printed in 2 colors (red and black), 14 note states per page. Initials mostly in 3 colors (black, red, green) with floral ornaments. Headpieces with floral or geometric ornaments, mostly in 3 colors (black, red, green). Received from the father of priest Roman Moroko.
