Description: Nathan Mitchell offers an introduction to Christian liturgy in its many dimensions: ritual, social and sacramental. The book aims to promote an understanding of Christian ritual and liturgical prayer within its broader contexts – contexts that are simultaneously global and “postmodern”. e.g. no longer can we understand the West without seeking to understand the East; no longer can tenets of Christian theology be discussed in isolation from interreligious dialogue; no longer can we interpret the arts of ritual apart from those of music, sculpture, painting and architecture. This book assumes that readers engage ritual not only as participants in Christian liturgy but as agents in an evolving human history, as citizens of a world – a universe – whose magnitude and complexity challenge many of our traditional conjectures about the relation between God, people and planet.
