What does it mean to experience and engage in religious ritual? How
does liturgy structure time and space? How do our bodies move
within liturgy, and what impact does it have on our senses? How
does the experience of ritual affect us and shape our emotions or
dispositions? How is liturgy experienced as a communal event, and
how does it form the identity of those who participate in it?
Welcoming Finitude explores these broader questions about religious
experience by focusing on the manifestation of liturgical
experience in the Eastern Christian tradition. Drawing on the
methodological tools of contemporary phenomenology and on insights
from liturgical theology, the book constitutes a philosophical
exploration of Orthodox liturgical experience.
