    • Volume I. Periods and places -- volume II. Genres and contexts.

    • Volume One, dealing with Periods and Places, covers the authors and texts of the four major periods during which Greek Byzantine hagiography developed, and then the hagiography written in Oriental and Slavic languages and geographical regions around the empire.

    • Volume Two, dealing with Genres and Contexts, explores the wealth of literary dynamism and the variety of basic forms in which hagiography was produced, beginning in the fourth century and ranging down principally to the fifteenth (and beyond in some cases), as it interfaced with changes in the political and social, in addition to the literary, spheres.
