My new book, Staging the Sacred: Theatricality and Performance in Late Ancient Liturgical Poetry (Oxford University Press, 2023), attempts to think through what it means to approach liturgical poetry from late antiquity as performed works, i.e., to think of the texts we have in our hands as analogous to scripts or, even more speculatively, the written traces of dynamic, in-the-moment experiences. ...For PaleoJudaica posts on Prof. Liebers work on late antique Hebrew and Aramaic poetry, see here, here, here, and here, and follow the links.
