Handbuch der Liturgik

Más información sobre el libro

This Compendium of Liturgics„ has long been a tried and tested companion for both practical and theoretical theologians. In this the third edtion both the contents and the thematic breadth as well as the circle of authors have been expanded considerably. The result is a book that presents many new approaches to the subject. The editors have put particular emphasis on the creative leeway present in occasional services and the newer forms of church services, such as those now found in the new “Handbook of Protestant Services.„ The scope of this volume, however, is not limited to Protestantism but rather is ecumenical and international in nature. This handbook provides many references to modern literature on this theme including the relevant Internet addresses. A detailed index enables quick and targeted work. Anyone interested in the various forms of liturgy in the Christian churches will find here both basic and in-depth state-of-the-art information.“
