Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Scholarly research does not develop in an historical vacuum. The questionsaddressed and the vantage points from where they are studied, are closelyrelated to the social and cultural contexts in which the researchers areworking and living. This holds in a particular way true for liturgicalresearch done in the twentieth century. The research carried out in thisperiod was clearly influenced by the changes that various forms ofChristianity, and more in general religion as such, went through duringthis century. The clearest evidence of the strong impact these changes hadon liturgical practice is provided by a series of sweeping liturgicalreforms taking place in the second half of the century.The research ofliturgical scholars was indirectly or directly influenced by the socialand cultural processes that were taking place. These processes unavoidablyhad their effect on the questions that were raised and on the foci thatwere chosen and it also coloured, at least to some extent, theinterpretations given to the data studied. During the last few decades,these issues have frequently and thoroughly been discussed by the Dutchliturgical scholars who are cooperating within the open,inter-confessional and interdisciplinary setting of the Institute forLiturgical and Ritual Studies located at the Tilburg University.Apartfrom furthering reflection about the various scholarly paradigms that werefollowed among these scholars, these discussions and conversations alsoaroused a historiographic curiosity, especially with regard to thedevelopment of liturgical scholarship in the Netherlands. How didliturgical studies develop in the course of this century in theNetherlands? What scholarly approaches were predominant? What paradigmsand shifts of paradigm can one discern? And how did these relate to thedevelopment of liturgical practice and the underlying religious, culturaland historical processes? In several respects the Dutch case was unique,due to specific historical circumstances. These considerations led to thedecision to devote a common research project to the history of liturgicalstudies in the Netherlands and this volume is the final outcome of thisproject.
