From Altar-Throne to Table: The Campaign for Frequent Holy
Communion in the Catholic Church investigates what the celebrated
scholar of liturgy Robert A. Taft, SJ, calls the greatest and most
successful liturgical reform in Catholic history. Only a century
ago, faithful, practicing Catholics received Holy Communion only
once a year; now, among American English-speaking Catholics, Holy
Communion is a routine, weekly devotional practice. This book
explains how and why this ritual sea-change happened. This book
emphasizes that significant ritual change may occur while
liturgical texts remain the same, and it also proposes a method for
understanding the causes for such a ritual change. It admonishes
not to project current ritual practice into even our recent past.
Further, it implies an explanation for the massive decline in
Catholics' use of the sacrament of reconciliation.
