Liturgical Calendars, Saints and Services in Medieval England (Hardcover, New Ed): Richard W. Pfaff Liturgical Calendars, Saints and Services in Medieval England (Hardcover, New Ed)
Richard W. Pfaff
R3,060 R1,069 Discovery Miles 10 690 Save R1,991 (65%) Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book includes four hitherto unpublished papers together with a substantial introductory historiographical and bibliographical overview. Many of the studies concern the liturgical views of figures like Lanfranc, St Hugh of Lincoln, and William of Malmesbury (an edition of William's Abbreviatio Amalarii is included) and the ways Thomas Becket and the Venerable Bede were viewed liturgically. Others reveal the achievement of an 11th-century Canterbury scribe, lay out a hagiographical puzzle as to the saints venerated on the 19th January, ask why calendars come to be attached to psalters, demonstrate that monks at Canterbury Cathedral were still reading Old English homilies in the 1180s, and present a fascinating, previously misunderstood, psalter owned by bishop Ralph Baldock, c.1300. Two final papers deal with 'Sarum' services in late medieval parish churches and with the devotional practice called St Gregory's Trental.

Late Medieval Liturgies Enacted - The Experience of Worship in Cathedral and Parish Church (Hardcover, New Ed): Sally Harper,... Late Medieval Liturgies Enacted - The Experience of Worship in Cathedral and Parish Church (Hardcover, New Ed)
Sally Harper, P. Barnwell, Magnus Williamson
R4,243 Discovery Miles 42 430 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book critically explores ways in which our understanding of late medieval liturgy can be enhanced through present-day enactment. It is a direct outcome of a practice-led research project, led by Professor John Harper and undertaken at Bangor University between 2010 and 2013 in partnership with Salisbury Cathedral and St Fagans National History Museum, near Cardiff. The book seeks to address the complex of ritual, devotional, musical, physical and architectural elements that constitute medieval Latin liturgy, whose interaction can be so difficult to recover other than through practice. In contrast with previous studies of reconstructed liturgies, enactment was not the exclusive end-goal of the project; rather it has created a new set of data for interpretation and further enquiry. Though based on a foundation of historical, musicological, textual, architectural and archaeological research, new methods of investigation and interpretation are explored, tested and validated throughout. There is emphasis on practice-led investigation and making; the need for imagination and creativity; and the fact that enactment participants can only be of the present day. Discussion of the processes of preparation, analysis and interpretation of the enactments is complemented by contextual studies, with particular emphasis on the provision of music. A distinctive feature of the work is that it seeks to understand the experiences of different groups within the medieval church - the clergy, their assistants, the singers, and the laity - as they participated in different kinds of rituals in both a large cathedral and a small parish church. Some of the conclusions challenge interpretations of these experiences, which have been current since the Reformation. In addition, some consideration is given to the implications of understanding past liturgy for present-day worship.

Baptismal Imagery in Early Christianity - Ritual, Visual, and Theological Dimensions (Paperback): Robin M Jensen Baptismal Imagery in Early Christianity - Ritual, Visual, and Theological Dimensions (Paperback)
Robin M Jensen
R486 Discovery Miles 4 860 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

2013 Catholic Press Award Winner What can we learn from early Christian imagery about the theological meaning of baptism? Robin Jensen, a leading scholar of early Christian art and worship, examines multiple dimensions of the early Christian baptismal rite. She explores five models for understanding baptism--as cleansing from sin, sickness, and Satan; as incorporation into the community; as sanctifying and illuminative; as death and regeneration; and as the beginning of the new creation--showing how visual images, poetic language, architectural space, and symbolic actions signify and convey the theological meaning of this ritual practice. Considering image and action together, Jensen offers a holistic and integrated understanding of the power of baptism. The book is illustrated with photos.
