Thesis (MTh)--Stellenbosch University, 2000 / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: As a multidisciplinary liturgical scientific research project, all seven existing methods
within the field of Liturgy will be used. These seven methods are namely: liturgy as
book; a depth approach; the integral approach; primary and secondary sources;
designation and appropriation; contextual: anthropological and cultural; as well as
present, past, continuity and discontinuity, future. These seven approaches will form
the matrix of the research that will be steered/directed by the researcher himself by
means of interference, a so-called tamed intuition and the Bible as critical-normative
source. As indicated in the title of the research proposal, the dynamic concept of
inculturation will play a vital role throughout the course of the research. Since the
research will be done with the intention of liturgical inculturation, the dynamic of cult
and culture, as well as the time aspect of continuity and discontinuity, must be
brought into account.
It follows that a number of main parts will have to be opened, of which three parts
have already been opened to serve as an example in this research proposal. These
main parts are firstly a chapter on inculturation, secondly a chapter on ritual theory
and also a chapter on the history of rituals of reconciliation within the Christian
tradition. These three main parts will be opened again from a South African
perspective in the final research, but will also be supplemented with a part on the
theology of reconciliation, and a recent contextual analysis by means of participatory
observation! ethnography.
Throughout the proposed research the matrix will be applied to each chapter
individually, and then on everything as a whole. The whole process will be steered by
the concepts interference and quality of ritual in order to see what lines of force or
series of qualities can be distilled from the process. As a whole the research will serve
the initial question, namely:" How a better inculturated repertoire of rituals of
reconciliation can be attained?" On this basis the research aims at making a
contribution towards the so-called liturgia condenda (liturgy in process/formation),
working towards the goal that the current liturgical formation in South Africa, and
specifically within the Dutch Reformed Church, will take place in a theologically and
anthropologically justifiable fashion. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: As multidissiplinere liturgiewetenskaplike ondersoek, sal van al sewe bestaande
ondersoekswyses binne die liturgiewetenskap gebruik gemaak word, te wete liturgie
as boek; In diepte benadering; die integrale benadering; primere- en sekondere
bronne; benoeming en toe-eiening; kontekstueel: antropologies en kultureel; en hede,
verlede, kontinuiteit en diskontinuiteit, toekoms. Hierdie sewe benaderings sal die
matriks van die ondersoek vorm wat deur die ondersoeker self deur middel van
interferensie, 'n sogenaamde getemde intuisie en die Bybel as krities-normatiewe bron
gestuur sal word. Soos blyk uit die titel van die ondersoek, word daar vera! gewerk
met die dinamiese begrip inkulturasie. Synde die ondersoek gedoen word met die oog
op liturgiese inkulturasie, moet die dinamiek van liturgielkultus en kultuur, asook die
tydsapek van kontinuiteit en diskontituiteit met die liturgiese tradisie wat deur die
begrip inkulturasie opgeroep word, in berekening gebring word.
In hierdie ondersoeksvoorstel is drie van die vyf beoogde hoofdele a! eksemplaries
oopgemaak, naamlik inkulturasie, ritualiteit en geskiedenis van versoeningrituele in
die Christelike tradisie. Hierdie drie hoofdele sal in die finale ondersoek weer vanuit
'n Suid-Afrikaanse perspektief oopgemaak word, en aangevul word met 'n resente
kontekstuele analise met behulp van deelnemende observasie geng op
versoeningrituele, asook In teologiese hoofstuk oor die begrip versoening.
Die matriks sal deurgaans op al vyf dele toegepas word, eers op elkeen afsonderlik en
daarna op alma! saam. Hierdie proses sal deur middel van interferensie en kwaliteite
van ritueel plaasvind om te sien watter kraglyne en reekse kwaliteite afgelei kan word
uit die proses. As 'n geheel staan die proses in diens van die inisiele vraagstelling,
"Hoe 'n beter geinkultureerde rituele repertoire van versoening verkry kan word?".
Sodoende wil die ondersoek 'n bydrae lewer tot die liturgia condenda (liturgie in
wording), om mee te werk aan die ideaal dat die huidige liturgiese vormgewing in
Suid-Afrika, maar spesifiek ook in die Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk, op In
teologies en antropologies verantwoorde wyse geskied.
