Riepilogo: | This essay inquires into the writing of liturgical history, focusing on the challenges that have emerged for history writing with the interpretive tools of gender history. Ultimately, my historiographic argument has a theological aim, namely, to interrogate liturgical history as this history grounds authorizing claims to the past in the form of appeals to «Liturgical Tradition». In order to attend to this, a prior question has to be explored: Why has the study of liturgy largely ignored and thus occluded gender in the inquiry into liturgy’s past? The present essay seeks to answer that question, in order then to argue for a new, gender-attentive writing of the history of worship. |
