Abstract

Volume two of Theorizing Rituals mainly consists of an annotated bibliography of more than 400 items covering those books, edited volumes and essays that are considered most relevant for the field of ritual theory. Instead of proposing yet another theory of ritual, the bibliography is a comprehensive monument documenting four decades of theorizing rituals.

Abstract

Dans la liturgie oubliée (Editions du Cerf, 2003), Matthieu Smyth était intéressé aux prières eucharistiques dans les liturgies non romaines ; Il poursuit son investigation dans le même champ et se propose de reprendre pour elles-mêmes les questions que posent l'ensemble de la structure de la célébration eucharistique. L'ordo de la messe. On traite souvent de ces questions comme si les rites n'avaient pas de vie, pas d'histoire. Matthieu Smyth démontre à l'envi le contraire : telle formule qui faisait figure de clé de voûte apparaît soudain comme un ajout secondaire ; telle autre, naguère négligée, retrouve une signification originelle qui éclaire nos cérémonies d'un jour nouveau. Telle prière exhibe la marque d'un contexte historique caduc ; tandis qu'une autre révèle son lien avec la définition même du rite, etc. Il en va des rites comme tous le message chrétien : ils n'existent et ne sont appréhendables que dans leurs diverses réalisations historiques et culturelles concrètes. Si Matthieu Smyth fait porter l'essentiel de son étude sur la liturgie de type gallican, c'est en effet que, plus que d'autres, elle a conservé dans sa simplicité et sa clarté le schéma de la liturgie eucharistique tel qu'il s'est établi au cours du deuxième siècle et que le décrit vers 155 la première apologie de Justin Martyr. Ainsi à travers la tradition occidentale non romaine il est possible et c'est une occasion unique de remonter aux sources de nos traditions liturgiques, et de redécouvrir une eucharistie qui reflète la conception antique du Mystère pascal.

Abstract

The present volume is entirely dedicated to the investigation of the implications and effects of breaking ritual rules, of failed performances and of the extinction of ritual systems. While rituals are often seen as infallible mechanisms which ‘work’ irrespective of the individual motivations of the performers, it is clearly visible here that rituals can fail, and that improper performances do in fact matter. These essays break new ground in their respective fields and the comparative analysis of rituals that go wrong introduces new perspectives to ritual studies. As the first book-length study on ritual mistakes and failure, this volume begins to fill a significant gap in the existing literature. Contributors include: Claus Ambos, Christiane Brosius, Johanna Buss, Burckhard Dücker, Christoph Emmrich, Brigitta Hauser-Schäublin, Maren Hoffmeister, Ute Hüsken, Brigitte Merz, Axel Michaels, Karin Polit, Michael Rudolph, Edward L. Schieffelin, Jan A.M. Snoek, Eftychia Stavrianopoulou, and Jan Weinhold.

Abstract

Was Jerusalem, under her bishop Cyril, the source of liturgical innovations in the fourth century or was she simply following trends which also affected the liturgy of neighboring provinces? In assessing these two established propositions in relation to baptism, Juliette Day undertakes a careful comparative analysis of all the relevant sources for Palestine, Egypt and Syria, paying attention to the structure, content and theological narrative of the rites which they describe. The Mystagogical Catecheses, commonly attributed to Cyril of Jerusalem, are the key source in this discussion.

Abstract

Discourse in Ritual Studies invites you to enter a conversation on the topic of liturgy from the perspective of ritual studies. Since liturgical topics are not among the most frequently addressed issues in ritual studies, this volume supplies a need for studies of public worship that take into account the multidisciplinary and innovative research in ritual studies while dealing with basic issues of religious studies and theology. The contributing authors share an action-oriented and empirical interest in ritual studies while not losing sight of perennial and normative questions that characterize the study of liturgy. Thus, a valuable discourse unfolds that opens up new opportunities for worship research in ritual studies. Contributers are: Johannes van der Ven, Ronald Grimes, Chris Hermans, Jacques Janssen, Jean-Pierre Wils, Georg Essen, Aad de Jong, Thomas Quartier, Remco Robinson, Lieve Gommers, Irene Houwer, and Hans Schilderman.
