The Liturgies of Quakerism explores the nature of liturgy within a
form of worship based in silence. Tracing the original seventeenth
century Quakers' understanding of the 'liturgy of silence', and
what for them replaced the outward forms used in other parts of
Christianity, this book explains how early Quaker understandings of
'time', 'history', and 'apocalyptic' led to an inward liturgical
form. The practices and understanding of twenty-first century
Liberal Quakers are explored, showing that these contemporary
Quakers maintain the same kind of liturgical form as their
ancestors and yet understand it in a very different way. Breaking
new ground in the study of Quaker liturgy, this book contrasts the
two periods and looks at some of the consequences for the study of
liturgy in general, and Quakerism in particular. It also explores
evangelical Quaker understandings of liturgy.
