Four stages of development. The earliest drama began as liturgical (a kind of sermon in church) drama. · Miracle plays or miracles, were performed by guilds of artisans in town squares. There were several cycles of miracle plays (around 50). They all had some kind of religious component, the lives of saints or stories of the Bible. · Morality plays were the beginning of secular (non-religious) drama. Mostly allegorical characters, a lot of moralising, the struggle of good and evil etc. The plot is closer to everyday lives.
over much of modern European Russia, Ukraine and Belarus was the Eastern branch of the Slavs, speaking a closely related group of dialects. The political unification of this region into Kievan Rus' in about 880, from which modern Russia, Ukraine and Belarus trace their origins, established Old East Slavic as a literary and commercial language. It was soon followed by the adoption of Christianity in 988 and the introduction of the South Slavic Old Church Slavonic as the liturgical and official language. Borrowings and calques from Byzantine Greek began to enter the Old East Slavic and spoken dialects at this time, which in their turn modified the Old Church Slavonic as well. The Ostromir Gospels of 1056 is the second oldest East Slavic book known, one of many medieval illuminated manuscripts preserved in the Russian National Library. Dialectal differentiation accelerated after the breakup of Kievan Rus' in approximately 1100.
architecture from the 13th to the 20th century. Several works of art that are exhibited in the church have been located there for centuries (e.g. the retable for the high altar made in the workshop of Hermen Rode in Lübeck, Danse Macabre by Bernt Notke, the retable of the Holy Passion, the seven-armed candelabrum, etc.); therefore, the St. Nicholas' Church as a museum offers a unique opportunity to exhibit these works of art in their historical and liturgical context. The objects, commissioned for the church in the Middle Ages and in later centuries, have been returned to their natural environment. Thus, the church and its art treasures compose a historical and cultural unit which value can hardly be overestimated. Many objects exhibited in the church are of extraordinarily high artistic and material value, above all the retable for the main altar with the paintings by Hermen Rode, and Dance Macabre by Bernt Notke which is unique in the whole world
sections resembling cantus firmus, a Gregorian chant.1 The first movement starts with the words “Te Deum laudamus”. Here, the whole thematic core of the work is expressed: Example 172.

The American concert organisation New World Classic claims that the Te Deum is possibly the most sold classical CD in the last decade (1993-2003).2 I cannot think of any other liturgical composition of recent years which could be compared to Te Deum, as its standard of performance served Pärt in all respects... with equal devotion as Pärt is serving the Divine Source.3 XIX.
