Lift Up Your Hearts:A Musico-liturgical Study of the Eucharistic Prayer of the Roman RiteWay, Anthony David, res.cand@acu.edu.au January 2004 (has links)
It is a well established fact that the practice of the eucharistic prayer in the roman, rite is seriously underdeveloped. This survey of complete or partially through -composed settings of the eucharistic prayer attempts to shed some light on why and how composers have responded to the wide-spread opinion that the eucharistic prayer is rarely experienced as the high point of the eucharistic celebration as it was intended. Divided into two parts, the study initially considers the official aims and norms of the post-conciliar liturgy, both in general and as they pertain to the eucharistic prayer, noting some tension between the aims and their realisation. Three broad themes are identified for the entire work: ritual structure, the role of music and participation. The texts of the eucharistic prayers are then discussed to see how the official expectations are realised. A survey of the theoretical writings on rnusic and the eucharistic prayer concludes the first part. The second part focuses on over 100 musical settings, both published and unpublished d the eucharistic prayer. After offering a general chronological overview of the music, noting its forces and general characteristics, the music is scrutinised to see whether its various parts are celebrated or submerged by music, the broader shape of the compositions is examined and then a discussion concerning participation issues follows. The use of tabulated data aids the discussion. While acknowledging that there are many ways to evaluate the usefulness of such compositions and that this study does not touch on their actual reception and performance, it is hoped the current work will offer some insights into the variety of existing responses to the challenge of the setting the eucharistic prayer and offer some suggestions as to how this important work may continue.

Eucharistická modlitba a její znovuzavedení v současných reformovaných církvích / The Eucharistic Prayer and its Reintroduction in Contemporary Reformed ChurchesHrubovská, Barbara January 2019 (has links)
This diploma thesis, entitled "Eucharistic prayer and its reintroduction in contemporary Reformed churches," deals with the historical development and present form of Eucharistic prayer, as well as the possibilities of its application in liturgical orders to the Lord's Supper in the Reformed churches. The aim of the work is to explore the essence of the liturgical and theological contribution of the Eucharistic prayer for the eucharistic liturgy of the Reformed churches. The work consists of six chapters. At first, deals with the Eucharistic prayer as one of the possible elements of the liturgical renewal of the Lord's Supper in Protestant churches, whose liturgical orders do not include the Eucharistic prayer owing to historical development. It also discusses the historical development of the Eucharistic prayer from its Jewish roots, through the emergence of the Roman canon to its removal by the reformers from the liturgy of the Lord's Supper. The work also focuses on the comparison of two particular Reformed churches, the Reformed Church in America and the Reformed Christian Church in Slovakia, on their approach to the use of Eucharistic prayer and on the reflection of the contribution of Eucharistic prayer to the liturgical orders of the Reformed churches in general.

An enquiry into Advent and Lenten Cycles of the Anglican and Roman Catholic Eucharistic CollectsSavage, Allan Maurice 06 1900 (has links)
There is dissatisfaction with the Collects when
scholastically (classically) understood. An alternative
phenomenological understanding is an engaging and artistic
philosophical enquiry. Phenomenological philosophical
enquiry engages the individual in meaningful interpretation
and construction of the life-world founded on a
non-dichotomous ontology. Phenomenological enquiry
(existential philosophy) interprets the present and relates
to the future such as is not possible in scholastic
(classical) philosophy.
The early twentieth century philosophers, Edmund Husserl and
Martin Heidegger, conceived a phenomenological method of
interpretation which innovatively placed the subject and
object in a dialectical union. Understanding the Collects
phenomenologically presents new insights susceptible to
consensus within a community. At present, the Collects are
structured on the principles of classical (dichotomous)
ontology. The Collects reflect the collective religious
meaning of the life-world and provide a vision upon which a
community may build. In phenomenological interpretation an
individual and a community, in the presence of that which is
divine, participate as co-creators of the life-world. Thus,
in contemporary western society phenomenological methodology
~ay be more helpful and therefore more desirable than
scholastic methodology for theological interpretation.
The hypothesis that phenomenological philosophy is more
helpful, thus more desirable, than scholastic philosopl1y
began as a hunch on my part. From a theological perspective,
I examined data obtained from a particular focus group.
Intelligent reflection, phenomenologically not classically
understood, is a working principle in this thesis. / Taking into account phenomenological methodology and
conceptualising the problem as originally and scientifically
as circumstances permit, I offer a resolution to the
dissatisfaction with the Collects. I suggest replacing
scholastic ontological understanding with the more helpful
phenomenological ontological understanding in liturgical
interpretation.
This replacement-solution hypothesis is evidenced in this
study minimally, but sufficiently, to conclude that such
replacement is occurring in theological understanding. There
are clear existential intimations of a shift from classical
understanding to phenomenological understanding. The results
of the survey show traditional understanding to be favoured,
however. In the concluding remarks, I evaluate my findings
and suggest what direction future studies may take. / Philosophy, Practical & Systematic Theology / D. Th. (Practical Theology)

Inculturating the eucharist in the Catholic diocese of Mutare, ZimbabweAmadi, Anthony 30 June 2008 (has links)
The purpose of this research is to explore possible ways of making the Eucharistic celebration more meaningful to Catholics in Mutare diocese, Zimbabwe. The reason for this concern is that the Eucharist is the `source and summit' of the Christian life. Since inculturation is a possible means of achieving this aim of a meaningful celebration, it was found necessary in this study to examine how the Eucharist has been taught and inculturated in the Catholic Church over the years. From this It was discovered that inculturation was absent in the writings and catechesis of early Church authors and Fathers during the periods reviewed. Although an observation was made that it was indirectly implied in the Eucharistic prayers of the early Christians, it was only after a new `understanding of culture' emerged, following Vatican II, that permission was given by Rome to use local languages at Eucharistic celebrations.
In the course of this study, efforts were made to determine the elements that constitute Eucharistic inculturation in Mutare diocese. These include: symbolic gestures, local languages, proverbs, enthronement, local staple food, invocation of ancestors, and others. In an empirical study to find out the extent of inculturation that has taken place in Mutare diocese, questionnaires were sent to sixteen out of twenty-four parishes in the diocese. Oral interviews were also conducted for this purpose. After analyzing the responses from respondents and those interviewed, it was discovered that some areas of inculturation have been realized, though not fully. Two outstanding areas which have not yet been realized were found to be the use of local staple food and the invocation of ancestors. The conclusion was that inculturation is not fully implemented in Mutare diocese and this impacts negatively on the celebration of the Eucharist. Eucharistic inculturation is an achievable goal in Mutare diocese, however, provided there is intensive catechesis which takes into account Shona-rich cultural values, aided by active involvement of small Christian Communities and the support of the hierarchy. / Systematic Theology and Theological Ethics / M. Th. (Systematic Theology)
