The Rev. Dr. Zachary Guiliano is an associate editor of The Living Church and a priest of the Church of England serving as assistant curate at St. Bene’t’s Church, Cambridge.
He is finishing his first monograph, ‘Divine readings’ in Carolingian Europe: Charlemagne, reform, and the homiliary of Paul the Deacon (Brepols, forthcoming). It focuses on the early history and manuscripts of an anthology of patristic homilies and sermons, commissioned and authorized by Charlemagne for use in the Daily Office. It became one of the most widely used books in the Middle Ages.
Zachary completed his BA in biblical studies at Evangel University, his MDiv at Harvard Divinity School, and his PhD in history at the University of Cambridge, where he was a Gates Cambridge Scholar. He is the author of various articles, short essays, and reviews, and co-editor of two volumes in the new Studies in Episcopal and Anglican Theology series. He is also a contributing blogger at Anglican Communion News Service.
He and his wife, Melissa, are natives of Peoria, Illinois, that most normal of American towns. They made their way to Anglicanism via a long pilgrimage through various Christian denominations, a process that gave them a healthy regard for ecumenism, a love for good liturgy, and a significant appetite for theological discussion. They are, as well, studied practitioners of the culinary arts.
