This is a study of the social construction and the impression
management of the public forms of worship of Catholicism and
Anglicanism. Interest centres on the dilemmas of the liturgical
actors in handling a transaction riddled with ambiguities and
potential misunderstandings. Simmel, Berger and Goffman are used in
an original manner to understand these rites which pose as much of
a problem for sociology as for their practitioners.;These rites are
treated as forms of play and hermeneutics is linked to a negative
theology to understand their performative basis. The study is an
effort to link sociology to theology in a way that serves to focus
on an issue of social praxis.
