From 1991 to 2012, Nathan D. Mitchell was the author of the "Amen
Corner" that appeared at the end of each issue of Worship. Readers
of Worship grew accustomed to Nathan's columns as invitations to
rethink the practice of Christian worship through a liturgical
theology that was interdisciplinary, aesthetic, and attentive to
history. With the soul of a poet, Nathan was always on the lookout
for the turn of phrase, the image, stanza, or metaphor from other
classic wordsmiths that could capture the liturgical insight he
wanted to explore.
For the first time, this volume assembles some of the most
important of these columns around the themes of body, Word, Spirit,
beauty, justice, and unity. In addition, Nathan's former students
offer substantive commentary through essays that invite the reader
to consider how the themes raised by Nathan might develop in the
coming years.
This collection is a must-read both for those who admired Nathan's
contribution to liturgical studies and for a newer generation of
scholars seeking to discern the frontiers of liturgical
theology.
Nathan D. Mitchell is an emeritus professor of liturgy in the
Department of Theology at the University of Notre Dame. In 1998,
Mitchell was presented with the Berakah Award from the North
American Academy of Liturgy for his contribution to the field. His
many publications include the following books: Cult and
Controversy; Eucharist as a Sacrament of Initiation; Liturgy and
the Social Sciences; Real Presence: The Work of Eucharist; and,
more recently, Meeting Mystery and The Mystery of the Rosary:
Marian Devotion and the Reinvention of Catholicism.
