Inhaltsangabe

This book presents a collaborative scholarly examination of the principles of liturgical revisions. It argues that although liturgical form should be conservative by nature, change is sometimes needed to avoid the obsolete and to provide variety. At the same time, arbitrary changes and sweeping revisions should also be avoided. The author examines the development of various liturgical practices through history, with an eye to identifying principles and practices that have stood the test of time. He also looks at various misapplications and unsuccessful changes to the liturgy and discusses how such situations can be avoided in future. This book delves into a complex subject to explore the delicate balance between liturgical continuity and adaptation. It is an essential text for anyone interested in the development of the liturgy, and a valuable resource for those considering future revisions.
