The doctoral thesis about Hieratikon of priest Lucian Petroaia brings to the researchers’ attention, the most important book of service of the orthodox priest. From a historical perspective, the author has carefully identified and investigated all editions of the Hieratikon printed in Romania, from 1508 to the present; from the point of view of analyzing the content of the Hieratikon, he follows the evolution of the order of the Holly Liturgy over 500 years, often comparing the text of the Romanian Hieratikon with that of the Greek Hieratikon and the Slavic Slujebnik. The interdisciplinary approach emphasizes the essential role that the Orthodox liturgical cult had for the assertion of Romanian culture, in the landscape of the European and Universal culture.

"The Byzantine liturgy, with its beauty, its richness, and its depth, intrigues, inspires, and fascinates a great number of today’s Christians; and yet it remains for many almost inaccessible if not incomprehensible. The Typikon, the liturgical book that contains the order of the liturgical celebration, is complex, whence the necessity of “decoding” it both for recent converts and for “cradle” Orthodox Christians desiring to deepen their liturgical observance. And that “decoding” is the goal of this book. Developed from courses given at the Institut Saint-Serge in Paris, it covers the celebration of the offices throughout the Byzantine liturgical year. The organization and composition of the liturgical offices are first situated in the context of their historical development, and then are analyzed in detail from a practical point of view. This explanation of Byzantine liturgical practice, the first of its kind in English, includes an extensive bibliography and comprehensive glossary."--Back cover.
