If you could describe the Roman, Syriac, and Byzantine Catholic strands?

There are more rites than these families, so feel free to add extra info.

My objective is to better understand the all-encompassing nature of the Catholic Church.

If you could summarize the Roman Catholic, Syriac Catholic, and Byzantine Catholic forms of the Church in a way that differentiates them from each other, what would you say???

I’m not asking about liturgical rites per se, but theological and spiritual perspectives, including liturgy.

This is my horribly botched attempt without much research. I intend on learning more about Eastern Christiany soon, especially Syriac Catholicism. Anyway:

ROMAN: Scholasticism; Rational; systematic theology; legal-minded (not necessarily in a bad way); sacraments of initiation seen as distinct; Latin; Augustine; Aquinas; magisterium

BYZANTINE: Constantinople; icons; mystery; monasticism; Divine Liturgy; elegance; church fathers emphasis; theosis; platonic; heritage with Eastern Orthodoxy

SYRIAC: ancient; Jesus the Divine Physician; mystery; Antioch: Edessa; poetry; desert fathers; Maronite Church;

Wow. Shows my ignorance…

I find this to be a great introductory source when trying to understand the different rites of the Church.

Also, if you were interested in knowing more about the Roman Rite, the Catechism of the Catholic Church is a great resource to look at for Catholic Dogma. Christ Our Pascha is the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church’s equivalent of the Catechism.

I have both of these. I recently got the Ukrainian one. Thanks!!
