Though so much medieval chant is anonymous – anonymity may even have been valued as expressing humility – recent articles have focused on some of the individuals who are known to have created texts and melodies for the liturgy. V. Frangeskou is one of two authors to have looked at texts by Gregory of Nazianzen, known as Gregory the Theologian, a fourth-century patriarch of Constantinople whose writings were the source of many Greek chant texts. Two other articles look at the sixth-century kontakion-poet Romanos, specifically his ‘Lament of the Mother of God’ and his apparent indebtedness to an apocryphal Gospel.
