Canticles are psalm-like songs in the Bible. Since the earliest Christian times, these songs, and in particular those from the Old Testament, have formed an elementary part of the central service of the Easter Vigil and, consequently, of the morning office [lauds]. This is true for all Offices in the Eastern and Western traditions. The fact that, in numerous translations of the Bible, canticles feature separately as fixed sequences following the Book of Psalms, as early as the Codex Alexandrinus, demonstrates how significant canticles were.Despite the importance of the canticles, their usage, interpretation and impact have rarely been the subject of scientific studies. Some individual studies are available, but only up to about 1950. A complete overview, especially with a view to the history of the impact of the canticles, does not exist at all yet. This project proposes to address that gap.The first part deals with the canticles in general. It builds on the results of previous studies and thereby aims initially to develop an overview of the canticles' usage and the context of their usage in the various liturgical traditions. Additionally, the intention is to catalogue the canticles' illustrations in the psalter manuscripts. These illustrations have so far barely received any scientific attention. This will form the basis for an examination of the theological understanding of the songs and the iconographic illustrations whilst referencing any potential significant links and the individual cultural-historical contexts of the songs and illustrations.The second part deals, by way of example, with the history of the interpretation and the impact of the canticle that can be considered the most significant since the times of the Old Church: the 'Song of the Three Hebrew Children' [Daniel 3, 52-90] and the whole of the third chapter of Daniel of which this song is a part. Subject of the study are the different contexts of its usage: in the Bible, in homily, in liturgy, in hymnology, in iconography, and in hagiography. With regard to the relevance of this study for the present day, the question arises in how far Daniel 3 continues to have an impact on the socio-cultural environment of the 20th and 21st centuries. To find the answer, it is helpful to consider examples of artworks ranging from literature to music and to visual art.A monograph will serve to allow the public access to the results of both parts of this project.

颂歌是《圣经》中类似诗篇的歌曲。自最早的基督教时代以来，这些歌曲，特别是那些来自旧约的歌曲，已经形成了复活节守夜中心服务的基本部分，因此，早上的办公室[赞美诗]。东方和西方传统的所有办公室都是如此。事实上，在圣经的许多译本中，早在亚历山大抄本中，颂歌就以固定的顺序分别出现在诗篇之后，这表明了颂歌的重要性。尽管悬臂的重要性，他们的使用，解释和影响很少成为科学研究的主题。有一些单独的研究，但只有1950年左右。一个完整的概述，特别是考虑到悬臂影响的历史，根本不存在。本项目旨在解决这一差距。第一部分一般讨论悬臂。它建立在先前的研究结果的基础上，因此最初的目的是概述颂歌的使用及其在各种礼仪传统中的使用背景。此外，目的是在诗篇手稿中编目颂歌的插图。到目前为止，这些插图几乎没有得到任何科学关注。这将构成对歌曲和图像插图的神学理解的基础，同时参考歌曲和插图的任何潜在的重要联系和个人文化历史背景。第二部分，通过举例的方式，讨论了自旧教会时代以来最重要的圣歌的解释历史和影响：“三个希伯来孩子的歌”[但以理书3:52 -90]和《但以理书》的整个第三章，这首歌是其中的一部分。研究的主题是不同的上下文，它的使用：在圣经中，在讲道中，在礼拜仪式中，在赞美诗中，在圣像学中，在圣徒传记。关于这项研究与当今的相关性，问题出现在但以理书3对20世纪和21世纪的社会文化环境有多大影响。为了找到答案，考虑从文学到音乐和视觉艺术的艺术作品的例子是有帮助的。专著将使公众能够获得该项目的两个部分的结果。
