Liturgical Sense: The Logic of Rite (Weil Series in Liturgics)

Louis Weil looks back on his work shaping the liturgical life of the Episcopal Church through his involvement with the development of The 1979 Book of Common Prayerâ€” and looks forward to the future of the church and its liturgical life. Through stories and first-person anecdotes, Weil does â€œnarrative theologyâ€ as only he can. Although most points of reference are to the 1979 BCP, the book is aiming at a more fundamental levelâ€”not just Episcopal or even Anglican liturgy, but liturgical rites as such: how do they â€œdo what they doâ€?â€”or NOT do when they are done badly! â€œLiturgical Senseâ€ is two dimensional: both the â€œcommon senseâ€ of liturgical rites and also their â€œaesthetic sense.â€ It is Dr. Weilâ€™s contention that in American culture we have an inherent inability to â€œthink symbolically.â€ Dr. Weil seeks to encourage a return to â€œliturgical senseâ€ across the church.
