A Liturgical Companion to the Documents of the Second Vatican Council - 4 Pieces Per Package

Description

With an Introduction by Massimo Faggioli

The Second Vatican Council was arguably one of the most significant events in the Catholic Church during the twentieth century. The Council produced sixteen documents that articulated significant issues facing the Church and repositioned Catholic theology in light of the modern world. Most notably, the first document of the Council, Sacrosanctum Concilium, emphasized the liturgy as the source and summit of Christian life. As such, the liturgy is intimately connected to all facets of Church theology and practice. This unique collection presents a comprehensive evaluation of each document of the Second Vatican Council. Written by contemporary liturgical scholars and theologians, each article provides an overview of key theological themes, historical and pastoral considerations, and how the document relates to our understanding and experience of the liturgy as source and summit.
