Description
Summary:In recent years the Ecclesiastical Year has attracted increasing attention as one of the great cultural embodiments of the Christian religion. This is largely due to the many transformations our "time culture" has undergone. Against the backdrop of the works of Karl-Heinrich Bieritz and Peter Cornehl, a number of studies have appeared examining the culture and characteristics of individual Christian festival periods and Church holidays. They can be conceived of as building blocks for a contemporary practical theology of the lived Church Year. Within and as the very rhythm of the seasons, the Ecclesiastical year unfolds its time-determining and life-giving power and embodies one of the decisive junctures of the Church and both individual and public Christianity: today it represents the Church "from time to time".
