The virtual sacrament : a literature survey of the Eucharist as liturgical ritual onlineLabuschagne, M.M.M. (Margaret Mary McDonald) January 2014 (has links)
In this study, the Eucharist as a liturgical ritual celebrated in the online space is
explored. The study begins with an exploration of the terms worship, liturgy and
ritual, settling on the term liturgical ritual. The methodology of practical theological
interpretation is then considered, with the first step, the descriptive-empirical task
being undertaken. The conceptual framework for the study is located within the postmodern
discourse of liminality, using the metaphors of language, play, bricolage,
embodiment, time and space to explore the intersection of liturgical ritual, network
culture and liminality. A literature survey considers the research completed in the
area of online ritual, and highlights two major themes, those of embodiment and
community, which challenge the Eucharist online becoming a reality. / Dissertation (MPhil)--University of Pretoria, 2014. / tm2015 / Practical Theology / MPhil / Unrestricted

The Belhar Confession and liturgy : a hymnological studyMofokeng, Mokete January 2017 (has links)
Much study regarding the Belhar Confession has been conducted already such as: The
Belhar Confession in its historical context Plaatjies-van Huffel (2014), Chronicle of
Conference Barman/ Belhar Consultation 18 and 19 October 2004 Hansen (2005), A
gift from heaven-the receptions in the Belhar Confession in the period 1982-2000 and
its ecumenical significance today Naudè (2003) and On violence, the Belhar Confession
and human dignity Koopman (2008) to mention but a few. From preliminary
observations and some initial research, it seems that there is still a need to do an indepth
study on the liturgical function of the Belhar Confession in Music. The working
hypothesis of this study is if the Uniting Reformed Church in Southern Africa URCSA
uses Belhar more in the liturgy, especially in singing it will have an impact on the
congregations and members. In other words the working hypothesis is that there is a
link between liturgy, here specifically hymn singing, and the formation of worshippers. If
URCSA is expecting others to adopt this confession it is its responsibility to embrace it
during worship in church and to the rest of the society outside church vicinities. The
literature survey that will be carried out later in this study confirms this state of affairs
and that there is thus indeed a huge research gap in this regard. The researcher did a
literature study, conducted semi-structured group interviews, as well as the some
empirical research in order to explore the basic research question. / Dissertation (MA Theol)--University of Pretoria, 2017. / Practical Theology / MA Theol / Unrestricted
