Zusatztext "Gabriel Hebert's Liturgy and Society is an important book! however its influence has not been fully recognised in contemporary Anglican ecclesiology. In this book! Andrew Bishop addresses that oversight. He engages with Hebert's text in order to explore the place and function of the church in today's world; he enriches our understanding of personhood! worship and mission. By echoing Hebert's non-anxious and generous spirit! this offers a vision of discipleship and witness rooted in the Eucharist whilst remaining attentive to the world." - Julie Gittoes! Residentiary Canon at Guildford Cathedral! UK "In this study Andrew Bishop re-reads Gabriel Hebert's writings! and! marshalling a range of conversation partners! persuasively argues that a church that is able to participate in the missio dei is a church that is first shaped by worship! and that a church that is shaped by worship is a church that is both in and for the world." - Christopher Irvine! Canon Librarian and Director of Education! Canterbury Cathedral! UK Informationen zum Autor Andrew Bishop is a priest of the Church of England. He has served in parishes in London and Basingstoke over fifteen years. Andrew obtained an MTh in Pastoral Theology from Heythrop College! London and DThMin from King's College! London. He is currently a Residentiary Canon of Guildford Cathedral and Anglican and Coordinating Chaplain to the University of Surrey. He is a member of the Alcuin Club and Society for Liturgical Study. Zusammenfassung The contemporary Church of England is wrestling with issues around the relationship between its worship and mission and relating both to wider society. Much of this hinges on an understanding of the nature of the Church. Gabriel Hebert's seminal book Liturgy and Society (1935) took as its subtitle, "The Function of the Church in the Modern World". For many this book inspired engagement with Eucharistic worship, with new patterns emerging, paving the way for further liturgical reform in the second half of the twentieth century. Eucharist Shaping and Hebert's Liturgy and Society re-examines Hebert's work, doing so uniquely in the light of the current dialogue about Church, liturgy and mission. Andrew Bishop argues that Hebert's contribution has been overlooked latterly and that a re-appreciation opens up fruitful ways of thinking and acting, making this book a distinctive contribution to a lively debate. If the options are reaction or novelty, Eucharist Shaping and Hebert's Liturgy and Society shows how Hebert's thinking subtly undermines both. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1.
