Beskrivning

2026 Catholic Media Association Honorable Mention, The Future of the ChurchExplore the ways material economies have shaped past liturgical practices and continue to underlie our worship today. Because the “stuff” of Christian worship is inextricably enmeshed in the marketplace, it seems that our liturgical practices, materiality, and economics are forever intertwined. In On Earth as in Heaven? leading scholars who presented the 2023 Yale Institute of Sacred Music Liturgy Conference break new disciplinary ground by investigating complex dynamics of liturgical production, distribution, and power throughout history. This collection critically engages the tension between "earthly" materialities and eschatological visions of Christian hope, offering innovative methodologies, case studies, and approaches that promise to stimulate further research in liturgical studies and beyond.

Recensioner i media

"Liturgy is where religion becomes a matter of seeing, touching, and tasting. It is the divine in the tangible creation—with all its messiness and practical demands on us—witnessing to the centrality of our understanding of being the creation within Christian faith. What these fourteen contributions offer us are glimpses into just how material our worship has been, is, and, indeed, must be. This collection is an important antidote to the siren voices of many in our culture who want to imagine worship as some perfect 'otherness' and in doing so only promote a disembodied gnosticism."Thomas O'Loughlin, professor emeritus of historical theology, The University of Nottingham
