Summary/Abstract: From Romanos the Melodist to John of Damascus and Cosmas of Maiuma, the hymnography of the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord will know the peak of its development in the 8th century through the Savaite monastic school. Fruits of the Church's need for both new forms of doxology and confession of the truths of faith, the liturgical poetic pieces of this holiday inspiredly develop its theology, intertwining a hermeneutic and catechetical approach with a latreutic one. The purpose of this study is to emphasize these two dimensions of the hymnographic material related to February 2, starting from a historical analysis to a theological and spiritual one.
