Anthologion
Anthologion
(), in Latin, Florilegium, a term used figuratively, like the classical word Anthology (, floral discourse), literally a garland of flowers, hence a collection of short sentences from celebrated authors. It is the technical name of one of the Church books in use among the Greeks. It contains principally the offices which are sung on the festivals of our Lord, the Virgin, and the chief saints; then those called
communia, appointed for the festivals of the prophets, apostles, martyrs, pontiffs, etc. Suicer, Thesaurus, p. 345.
