Protheoria of the Typikon
or
the typikÊ diataxis
of the Hesperinos, Orthros
and the Divine Liturgy
for Sundays and the rest of the Feasts throughout the entire year
with all their circumstances


This is a draft translation I began many years ago in conjuction with the preparation of annotations concerning the relationship of the Biolakes and Konstantinos Protopsaltes Typika. As I continue compiling notes, not included here, I decided to make the draft translation available on the internet due to its useful and practical nature. If you have any questions or comments regarding the transaltion and its contents, please do not hesitate to contact me with them since this helps me greatly in the composition of the annotated version.
