| Summary: | "Every religion has used buildings as part of their worship: from Newgrange to classical temples to churches built of steel, concrete and glass. And it was this concern of the Second Vatican Council that led to the changes in the arrangements in Catholic Churches in the 1960s and 70s.This book brings together nineteen Christians--liturgists, pastors, architects, artists--from several churches and from around the world who all address the question of how space affects us in worship. The topics covered include the role of light in a religious building, the need for space to accommodate liturgical dance, the varying needs of spaces for different liturgies, accounts of how communities have become creative with space, and about how the liturgical renewal begun in Vatican II should continue today."-- |
