T&T Clark Companion To Liturgy (Bloomsbury Companions) - 9780567034427

Catholic liturgy is currently an area of considerable interest and debate if not controversy in Catholic scholarship. This companion will seek both to provide a sound grounding in the study of Catholic liturgy as well as credible scholarly input into the current debate about its nature and future by bringing together reputable historical and theological scholarship from varying perspectives whilst maintaining an editorial stance that is firmly grounded in sound Catholic liturgical tradition.Crucial to the importance of the book will be the examination of the status of mid-late twentieth century liturgical scholarship upon which the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council were predicated and implemented, and how these assumptions are being re-examined today, particularly in the light of the liturgical reforms of Benedict XVI.
