The Serious Business of Worship: Essays in Honour of Bryan D. Spinks
Editat de Melanie Ross, Dr Simon Jonesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 noi 2011
The
study
of
liturgy
has
received
criticism
from
scholars
and
practitioners
alike:
the
academic
discipline
of
liturgiology
has
been
compared
to
the
hobby
of
stamp
collection,
and
proponents
for
liturgical
renewal
argue
that
worship
must
be
made
more
accessible
and
relevant.
Bryan
Spinks
has
been
an
important
moderating
voice
in
this
discussion,
reminding
both
academic
and
ecclesial
communities
that
Christ
is
made
known
in
the
liturgical
riches
of
the
past
as
well
as
in
contemporary
forms
of
the
present.
Inspired
by
Spinks'
work,
this
volume
brings
together
biblical,
historical,
and
theological
scholars
to
discuss
the
theme
of
continuity
and
change
in
worship.
Its
historical
range
begins
with
the
early
church,
extends
through
the
Reformation,
and
concludes
with
a
discussion
of
issues
facing
contemporary
liturgical
reform.
In
recognition
of
the
fact
that
Professor
Spinks'
work
has
been
widely
influential
in
both
Europe
and
the
United
States,
the
editors
have
solicited
liturgical
perspectives
from
scholars
with
international
reputations
on
sides
of
the
Atlantic.

The

witness
to
the
vibrancy
of

inquiry.
Here

'This splendid collection of essays honors Yale University's Professor Bryan D. Spinks, whose scholarly contributions have ranged across a broad spectrum in the field of liturgical studies, from early Christian Eucharistic practice (the place of the "Sanctus" in Eucharistic prayers) to studies of Reformation and post-Reformation worship (baptismal doctrine and liturgical reform in the Church of Scotland). Skilfully edited by Melanie C. Ross and Simon Jones, The Serious Business of Worship offers essays by some of the world's leading liturgical scholars, including Father Robert Taft, S.J. (on John Chrysostom's preaching), Bishop Kenneth Stevenson (on a transfiguration sermon of Peter the Venerable), Canon Paul Bradshaw (on varieties of early Christian baptismal anointing), and The Reverend Maxwell Johnson (on the issue of normativity in contemporary Lutheran liturgical practice). No college or university library-and no serious student of Christian worship-will want to be without this important collection. It offers a superb snapshot of where modern liturgical research is headed, and its ecumenical range witnesses to the ongoing search for unity of faith and worship among Christians today. Finally, readers should not overlook Melanie Ross's keenly focused assessment of Spinks's scholarship in her entertaining essay, "An Octopus in a Matchbox." The Serious Business of Worship - and the scholar it honors - will richly repay careful reading and study.' - Nathan D. Mitchell, Department of Theology, University of Notre Dame, IN, USA
'Bryan Spinks has made brilliant and significant contributions to a vast range of subjects in liturgical history and theology. This excellent collection, ranging from early Eastern liturgies, via Reformation studies, to the tensions and challenges of liturgical practice today, is a fine tribute to an exceptional scholar and thinker, who deserves every honour from both the academy and the Church.' - Archbishop Rowan Williams.
Entitled The Serious Business of Worship, this gathering of papers focuses on Spinks' legacy to both church and academy. This collection identifies, reviews, and outlines his most profound beliefs, priorities, and commitments. Their efforts are informative, critical, and respectful. The Serious Business of Worship begins with a helpful introduction by Ian Torrance and a sermon from Dr. Spinks, himself. This collection will be of interest to students, scholars, and church leaders commited to the growth and development of effective worship and live giving sacraments. The diversity and dept of these papers will be both challenging and inspiring to anyone choosing to consult these pages and I commend it to each and every one. - Michael K Jones, United Church of Canada
'Informative, critical and respectful... of interest to students, scholars and church leaders.'
'This is a serious volume, demanding and rewarding study... The editors and contributors of this book are to be congratulated on serving up a tasty dish of calamari to be enjoyed by anyone serious about worship.'
'This book is to be recommended for the breadth of its focus and the depth of its analysis in which the fruits of historical study and theological analysis are brought to bear on the contemporary challenges of experienced by worshippers in this current age.' Dominic E. Serra, Journal of Ecclesiastical History, Volume 63/2, UK
The Serious Business of Worshiphonours well the scholarly and pastoral contribution of Bryan Spinks. It also honours the complexity of the contemporary liturgical enterprise.
