Resurgent in the Midst of Crisis Angelico Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

SINCE THE TIME of the Second Vatican Council, the Catholic Church has experienced an unprecedented crisis of identity, symbolized and propelled by the corruption of the greatest treasure of her tradition: the sacred liturgy. The result has been confusion, dismay, devastation. To the surprise of some, however, the same half-century has witnessed a growing counter-movement of Catholics who find in the Church's traditional liturgy a perennial witness to the orthodox faith, a solid foundation for the interior life, an ever-flowing source of missionary charity, and a living embodiment of the true Catholic spirit.In this book, Peter Kwasniewski presents a fearless critique of the path of liturgical novelty and a detailed apologia for liturgical tradition in all its beauty, richness, and profundity, addressing such topics as solemnity, sacredness, the language of symbols, contemplation, participation, the symbiosis of lex orandi and lex credendi, silence, music, worship in Latin, and Gregorian chant. He confronts the humanism, rationalism, utilitarianism, and modernism so prevalent in the liturgical reform, assesses the prospects and limitations of a "Reform of the Reform," and reflects on the great gift of Summorum Pontificum. In the end, Kwasniewski argues for a zealous recommitment to Catholic Tradition in its fullness, starting with divine worship and embracing the whole realm of faith and morals, including integral Catholic social teaching."I heartily recommend Peter Kwasniewski's new book for those struggling to come to terms not only with what happened to the liturgy of the Catholic Church, but with why those changes have had such disastrous consequences. As he shows in one aspect after another of the Mass, the changes have taken us further away from that inner transformation of the worshipper which is a secondary purpose of the liturgy, after the worship of God."--JOSEPH SHAW, President of the Latin Mass Society of England and Wales"To come out of the present crisis we need to restore the liturgy in all its sacredness. Resurgent in the Midst of Crisis is a very important work that leads us to meditate in depth on the permanent value, theological centrality, and beauty of the traditional liturgy of the Church."--MSGR. IGNACIO BARREIRO, Executive Director of HLI's Rome Office"Peter Kwasniewski is one of a handful of 21st-century Catholic authors really in touch with our tradition who can, at the same time, carefully explain what is at stake in both the Catholic intellectual world and the culture as a whole. He is devastating in delivering his points, which he makes without wasting a word."--ROGER A. MCCAFFREY, President of Roman Catholic Books"Combining deeply human insight with supernatural faith, Prof. Kwasniewski presents a compelling case for the continuing necessity of the traditional Latin Mass for the Church's life and mission. Without questioning the validity of the modern rite, he illuminates in many ways how the older liturgy more clearly expresses the Faith and more richly nourishes the faithful."--FR. THOMAS KOCIK, author of Reform of the Reform? A Liturgical Debate: Reform or ReturnPeter Kwasniewski has taught and written on a wide variety of subjects, especially the thought of Saint Thomas Aquinas, sacramental and liturgical theology, the history and aesthetics of music, and the social doctrine of the Church. After teaching at the International Theological Institute in Austria, he joined the founding team of Wyoming Catholic College, where he currently serves as Professor of Theology and Choirmaster.

Learning from All the Faithful Pickwick Publications

Do various members of the church--regardless of their generation, gender, race, sexual orientation, country of origin, and whatever their doubts are about official church teachings and policies--have any role in determining, safeguarding, and assessing the authentic teaching and praxis of the faith of the church? This has always been a haunting question in the life of the Christian church, though only recently acknowledged, because of the long-standing role of male clergy of European descent with a Eurocentric outlook who held hierarchical offices and determined official doctrines and moral and disciplinary codes. There have been controversies that bear on these matters over the course of the church's history. But it has only been over the last fifty years that the question has received increasing attention among Roman Catholics in terms of the baptismal anointing of the Spirit that bestows the gift of the sense of the faith on individuals and the collective sense of the faithful. This gift provides discerning skills to recognize, receive, and imaginatively and practically apply the living faith in history and society. This book explores these issues from historical, sociological, systematic and theological ethical perspectives, infused by the contributions of world Christianities. ""Hinze and Phan represent two of the most influential figures working in Catholic theology today and they have brought together in one volume both established scholars and important new voices. This volume will serve as an invaluable resource for those wishing to explore how the Spirit of God continues to be heard in the world today."" --Richard R. Gaillardetz, Boston College   ""At a time when Pope Francis is challenging lay Catholics to exercise greater leadership in the Church, this superb collection of essays draws on history, theology, ethics, and the social sciences to explore how the sense of the faithful has long contributed to the life of the Church and offers exciting possibilities for future development around the world. Highly recommended for all who care about the future of the Catholic Church!"" --Leo D. Lefebure, Georgetown University ""The essays collected here explode in a kaleidoscope of colorful views that show just how rich this single theme can be. Eminently readable, the book makes a strong contribution to a disputed but vitally important question in ecclesiology today."" --Elizabeth Johnson, Fordham University ""This exciting collection takes the term sensus fidelium beyond being a buzzword of liberal theologians and grounds it firmly where theology must be grounded, equally in the insights of inherited tradition and in the theological wisdom of contemporary global Catholicism."" --Paul Lakeland, Fairfield University Bradford E. Hinze is the Karl Rahner, S.J., Professor of Theology, Fordham University, New York, NY. He is the author and editor of numerous books, including Prophetic Obedience: Ecclesiology for a Dialogical Church (2016).   Peter C. Phan is The Ignacio Ellacuria Chair of Catholic Social Thought at Georgetown University, Washington, DC. He is the author and editor of numerous books, including Living Into Death, Dying Into Life: A Christian Theology of Death and Life Eternal (2014).
