Field of Study: Religion, Late Ancient and Byzantine Studies

Research Description: Derek Krueger is studying the representation of the self in Byzantine Christian ritual from the sixth to the ninth centuries. Hymns, architectural settings, devotional objects collected on pilgrimage, and the emerging cult of icons gave Christians the opportunity to enter the narratives of the Bible and become the subjects of liturgy.
