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)

Towards a eucharistic theatre : the theatrical theologies of the Reduta, the Rhapsodic Theatre, and Grotowski's LabMatson, Cole C. E. January 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores the use of eucharistic language in the theatre theories of three different mid-20th-century Polish theatre companies--the Reduta Theatre, the Rhapsodic Theatre, and the Laboratory Theatre--especially as expressed in the writings of their respective primary founders: Juliusz Osterwa, Mieczysław Kotlarczyk, and Jerzy Grotowski. The thesis also describes how the Rhapsodic and Laboratory Theatres inherited different elements of the Reduta tradition, and how those two diverging branches of the Reduta's legacy have affected contemporary theatre. In addition, the thesis examines how different 20th-century theatre theorists have related the eucharist to theatre, and evaluates the legitimacy of the claim that religious rituals such as the eucharist can and ought to be replaced by secular theatrical rituals. Special attention is paid to Carl Lavery's three views of the sacred: secular, theological, and a/theological. Alexander Schmemann's conception of the eucharist is used to correct Lavery's presentation of the theological sacred and to argue for the possibility of a Christian sacred theatre, or a "eucharistic theatre." The thesis defines the concept of a eucharistic theatre; demonstrates the extent to which the Reduta, Rhapsodic, and Laboratory Theatres meet this definition; and suggests some ways in which a eucharistic theatre may be created today.

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)

The anthropology of geste and the eucharistic rite of the Roman mass.Fanning, Rosalie Patricia. January 1994 (has links)
For sixty-five years hardly anyone in the English-speaking world was aware of the anthropological theories of Marcel Jousse, a
twentieth century Jesuit scholar. In 1990, Jousse's seminal work, Le style oral rythmique et mnemotechnique chez les verbo-moteurs. (The rhythmic and mnemotechnique oral style of the verbo-motors), was translated into English and given the name The Oral Style.
His anthropologie du geste, called in this study the anthropology of geste, presented his discovery of the universal anthropological laws governing human expression: mimism, bilateralism and formulism. Jousse had sought to understand the anthropological roots of oral style, in particular the phenomenal memory of oral style peoples. In this dissertation, Jousse's theories are summarised and his anthropological laws are used to determine whether three eucharistic prayers of the Roman rite contain elements of oral style expression. The Roman Canon, Eucharistic Prayer 1 and Eucharistic Prayer for Children 1 are set out in binary and ternary balancings. An attempt is made to show that written style expression, an inheritance from the Greeks, houses in its extraordinary complexity the very oral style elements it appears
to have superseded. The assertion made is that written style, with its predilection for subordination, actually conserves, preserves and perpetuates oral style balancings, not only in the simple sentence (what Jousse calls the propositional geste), but also in clauses, phrases, words, and sound devices. Support is given to T. J. Talley's view that the Jewish nodeh lekah (thanksgiving) and not the berakah (blessing) is the prayer source that influenced the structure of the early Christians' eucharist (thanksgiving in Greek). The expressions of thanksgiving that are a distinguishing feature of anaphoras from the 1st century AD onwards, continue to shape the eucharistic prayers today. This is offered as one reason why, in a reconstruction of Eucharistic Prayer for Children 1 presented at the end of Chapter 5, it is possible to balance one recitative with another, and the recitation of one prayer component with another. The dissertation concludes by recommending that oral studies of the Christian liturgies of East and West be pursued as they have much to contribute to the orality-literacy debate not only in the
matter of liturgical language but also in gaining an appreciation of other gestes of worship. / Thesis (M.A.)-University of Natal, Durban, 1994.

Religión, espacio y política en la España del siglo XX : el Congreso Eucarístico Internacional / Croyances, espaces et politique dans l'Espagne du XXe siècle : les congrès eucharistiques internationaux / Faith, urban space, culture and politics in XXth century Spain : the International Eucharistic CongressNuñez- Bargueño, Natalia 08 December 2018 (has links)
Le Congrès Eucharistique International est l’un des événements de masse les plus significatifs du catholicisme contemporain. À mi-chemin entre la modernité et la tradition, il s’agit d’un phénomène de mobilisation des fidèles comparable à des événements de masse laïcs, tels que l´Exposition Universelle, les congrès scientifiques et politiques, et même les Jeux Olympiques. Notre travail fait une étude comparative de deux des trois Congrès Internationaux qui ont eu lieu en Espagne (Madrid 1911 et Barcelone 1952). Ces assemblées catholiques sont un vaste et riche champ pour la recherche du point de vue des études transdisciplinaires, et en particulier de la perspective de l’histoire culturelle, car chaque célébration implique une convergence particulière d’intérêts multiples (religieux, politiques, économiques, spatiaux, symboliques, etc.). Tandis que pour la première partie de la thèse nous avons fait une contextualisation historique approfondie de chaque congrès (locale, nationale et internationale), pour la deuxième partie, nous avons opté pour une perspective comparative et diachronique autour de deux thématiques essentielles pour l´étude des faits religieux contemporains : catholicisme espagnol et modernité (chapitre 5), et catholicisme espagnol et espace urbain (chapitre 6). La perspective spatiale de notre sixième chapitre est très importante, car, dans le cadre espagnol, il n’existe à ce jour que très peu d’études approfondies sur la religion comme un facteur de transformation de la ville, et inversement, de la ville comme un élément de modernisation du catholicisme contemporain. / The International Eucharistic Congress is one of the most striking mega events organized by the Catholic Church in late modernity. Its hybrid nature (both traditional and modern, secular and spiritual), the fact that it has been celebrated since the end of the XIXth century in all five continents, and the imposing multitudes it gathers, make it an extraordinary object of study for the field of Religion and History. Despite its being mainly conservative in nature, its celebration has also allowed for restricted, but fundamental, religious innovation, gradually allowing the Church to creatively face the challenges of an increasingly less observant modern society. Spain has celebrated the IEC on three occasions: Madrid 1911, Barcelona 1952 and Seville 1993. Our work wishes to establish a rich comparison between the first two. We will first situate the 1911 and 1952 celebrations in their local, national and international historical contexts. Then, in the second part of our work, we will study both celebrations from a diachronic and thematic perspective, namely, the relation of Spanish Catholicism both to Modernity (to the emergence of mass culture and society) and to Urban Space. Taking a postsecular point of view, we will emphasize the fact that the place, role, meaning, and identity of religion in Spain have changed in tandem with modernity’s social, economic, political and cultural transformations. Ultimately, inspired by both by S. Juliá´s revision of the historical metanarrative that considered Spain as Modernity´s failure/“anomaly”, and by F. Montero´s call to develop a Cultural History of Spanish Catholicism, our study wishes to critically reevaluate the role that History has traditionally ascribed to Catholicism in Contemporary Spain.

My community, my conscience and guide : communial influence on individual choices in Africa, with special reference to Zulu ProverbsManci, Thembayona Paulus Emmanuel 11 1900 (has links)
Life is the common denominator for all beings. Unless individuals
are taught to be careful about how they deal with it,
great harm could be caused to the whole ontological order.
Life therefore is a public property for which precepts had to
be established to guard against any misuse. This guarantees
that life and its processes are used to everyone's advantage.
The Community has put itself in position as the monitor of
the processes of life. To it belongs the right to distribute,
regulate and even withdraw life as different situations would
warrant. The community is both the promulgator and the judge
over vital matters.
The individuals are taught to be conscientious in dealing
with life. In making choices the individuals have to be
conscious of the historical experiences of the community and
be disposed to being influenced by it. Hence the Community
becomes the Conscience and Guide. / Religious Studies and Arabic / M.Th. (Religious Studies)
