3.0 out of 5 stars a survey of interpretative methods for liturgy, July 29, 1999
By

This review is from: Liturgy and Hermeneutics (American Essays in Liturgy) (Paperback)
The book reads like a summary of something else, and I would guess that the something else is her book, Liturgy, the Language of Faith. I am a parish priest and looking for insight into interpreting liturgy. From the book I learned that the historical-critical method was adopted heavily by the liturgical reform to critique early church sources, redactions, rites, etc... and that now literary criticism is having its turn. But the complexities of the individual fields are still lost on me--I still would have a hard time explaining what reader-response criticism is, let alone apply it. So I am encouraged by the many footnotes to pursue additional reading. In sum, the book lays out the state of the question, but assumes a good working knowledge of the field.
