Synopsis

""The Liturgy of the Primitive Church"" by Reginald Woolley is a comprehensive study of the early Christian liturgy. The author delves into the origins and development of the liturgy in the first few centuries of the Church, examining the practices and beliefs of the earliest Christians. Woolley explores the various liturgical traditions of the East and West, including the liturgies of Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria, Rome, and Gaul. He also discusses the significance of the Eucharist and the role of the clergy in the early Church. This book is an essential resource for scholars and students of early Christianity, liturgical studies, and Church history. It provides a detailed and insightful analysis of the liturgy of the early Church and its importance in shaping the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Liturgical uses of the Church must -- always be a matter of interest to all churchmen. It has, perhaps, a special interest to us in these days when we are hearing so much of proposals for the revision of the Liturgy of the Church of England. In the consideration of our English Liturgy with a view to such revision we turn very naturally to the Latin use which was the immediate parent of our Prayer Book, and at the same time we are deeply interested in the Liturgies of the Eastern Churches. It may, however, perhaps be questioned as to whether we are not inclined to neglect too much for these comparatively speaking late developments of the Liturgy in East and West, the more homely and less rigid Liturgical uses of the earliest centuries of the Church, those centuries in which the Church was more in touch than she has ever been since with the general life and the every day needs of her members.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
