Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The liturgist is a general practitioner who sees a lot in his practiceand for whom virtually everything is important. The phrase fromthe Introduction to the book offers a useful starting point forunderstanding what the authors essentially want to convey. While muchmay be important, this volume addresses specifically the relationbetween liturgy and mystery. Many of the contributingauthors recognise the bodied reality of mystery as crucial to thehealth of liturgical relationship. The contributors acknowledge thatneither the practitioner as liturgist, nor the theologian alone canprovide the necessary life-giving connections that help mediatebetween liturgy and mystery. Thus, the skills and knowledge from variousliturgical traditions and denominations are utilised to explore: (1) thegospels and Christ event, (2) the ongoing process of tradition throughverbal and non-verbal means, (3) the transparency of mystery itself, (4)the partaking in the Mystery through the links with other areas andcommitments of life, and (5) the revision of the classical approach tothe relationship between liturgy and systematic theology. This pairedliturgical and theological investigation ultimately opens ways forunderstanding what liturgy itself is, and what theology maybeshould be.
