This volume contains sixteen papers on Eastern Christian liturgies: on their origins, historical developments, current practices, and their theologies. The subjects range from initiation in Syriac Christianity to the origins of the feast of the Ark of the Covenant, and to the Book of Hours of Armenia and Jerusalem; from Coptic liturgy to an ancient Ethiopian catechesis with liturgical comments, and to the Palestinian Typicon; from Byzantine vesting rituals to the rite of marriage in the South-Slavic tradition, and to the fifteenth-century Archbishop Symeon of Thessalonica; from present-day Romanian liturgy ?between Greeks and Slavs? to Catholic veneration of Russian saints, and to the American Orthodox monastery of New Skete; and from the interactive web 2.0 to Robert Taft looking back on his impressive academic career. Thus the Society of Oriental Liturgy, dedicated to inquiries into the manifold worship traditions of the Eastern Churches, once more demonstrates that its research is an attractive cornucopia.

"Ecrit par Libératus, diacre de Carthage, ce Breviarium traite en 24 chapitres des controverses christologiques en Orient, depuis la prédication de Nestorius jusqu'à la promulgation du 1er édit de Justinien contre les Trois Chapitres (428-544). Condensé original d'informations ecclésiastiques d'une richesse rare, ce récit, composé en latin sans doute peu avant 566, forme un objet historiographique plutôt insolite. Libératus ne semble pas toujours tenir la concision de l'" abrégé " pour une exigence première. Mieux, il paraît s'inspirer du modèle des Histoires ecclésiastiques, jusqu'à citer in extenso des documents majeurs, pour mieux saper, avec discrétion, les fondements de la politique impériale visant à condamner Théodore de Mopsueste et certains écrits de Théodoret de Cyr ou Ibas d'Edesse. Car l'oeuvre est partiale et même partisane : Libératus, lui-même impliqué directement dans la phase ultime du conflit, entend rendre justice à la conception strictement chalcédonienne des deux natures du Christ, en proposant une lecture alternative de l'héritage de Cyrille d'Alexandrie. Il témoigne ainsi d'une vision originale de l'Eglise qui ne se réduit pas à celle de Rome ou d'Alexandrie. Ici traduit pour la première fois en français, l' Abrégé constitue une source majeure et une clé nouvelle pour comprendre cette période mouvementée du christianisme ancien."--Back cover.

In Sub-Saharan Africa Christianity is experiencing unprecedented growth and many people worship on a regular basis. Simultaneously, many parts of Sub-Saharan Africa experience challenges such as poverty and inequality. Given this reality and these challenges, a group of international scholars investigated the ritual practices of one of the fastest growing traditions, namely African Independent Churches, over a period of more than four years. The research team set out to explore the role of religious rituals in social capital formation and social development at community level in an African Independent Church in South Africa. This book is the final, comprehensive and synthesising product in which the international and interdisciplinary team of scholars from theology, religion and development present their findings. The book is structured into three parts that reflects its theoretical, empirical and evaluative dimensions. In part I, theoretical perspectives are offered on the main conceptual apparatus of the book and the authors' own understanding of the nexus between the different concepts. In part II, the theoretical arguments of the book are further worked out by means of eight explorations comprising of qualitative field work research in the religious milieus of African Independent worshippers in KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern Cape, South Africa. In part III, a final set of chapters, by reflecting on the case studies in part II, offer wider appreciations and applications of the role religious ritual in social capital formation. This includes reflections on the African notion of ubuntu and the challenges that the ritual lens offer to policy makers in South African society, but also African society and the global South more generally speaking when seeking answers to the problem of development.
