The receiving and handing on of Christian tradition always entails
adaptation and re-configuration for the reception to be useful.
These essays exemplify many facets of this 'handing on', from the
Lord's Prayer, through sermons on and expositions of the
Transfiguration, to the contributions of divines from Peter
Chrysologus to Lancelot Andrewes and Michael Ramsey. In Kenneth
Stevenson's words, they show 'worship and theology living at ease'
- words that also encapsulate his own life and work in Church and
academy.' Bryan D. Spinks, Goddard Professor of Liturgical Studies
and Pastoral Theology Yale Institute of Sacred Music and Yale
Divinity School 'This collection of essays is Kenneth Stevenson at
his very best - showing a breadth and depth of theological and
liturgical scholarship that few can equal, from New Testament texts
and patristic homilies to classic figures of seventeenth-century
Anglicanism and beyond. And yet all of this applied with a
lightness of touch and with a pastoral sensitivity shaped by the
years of his own ministry.' Paul Bradshaw, Professor of Liturgy,
University of Notre Dame 'Kenneth Stevenson's last book reads as
the quintessential autobiography of a questing, restless, puckish
scholar - a series of studies linking his chosen areas of
liturgical scholarship, biblical interpretation, and the insights
of the Caroline divines, all shot through with those humbling
insights on the glory of transfiguration, brought him by his final,
fatal illness. Si monumentum requiris, tolle et lege.' David
Stancliffe, liturgical scholar and former Bishop of Salisbury
Kenneth Stevenson was until autumn 2009 Bishop of Portsmouth. He
died in January 2011. His books include The Lord's Prayer: A Text
in Tradition, Take, Eat: Reflections on the Eucharist and Watching
and Waiting: A Guide to the Celebration of Advent.
