What
people are saying about Genius of the Roman Rite:
"The Second Vatican Council desired that the great treasures of the Church's
liturgy be better known and loved by all the faithful. . . . More than ever,
today we need a sound theological, spiritual and practical formation in the
great tradition of the Church's divine worship. This valuable book, with its
contributions from various academic disciplines, will help to promote the spirit
of the liturgy, according to the intentions of Pope Benedict XVI."
--Antonio Cardinal Cañizares Llovera
Prefect
of the Congregation of Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments
"It is easy to forget that the earthly liturgy--the everyday Eucharist
of our parish churches and communities--is nothing less than a foretaste of
the liturgy in which Christ and the whole company of heaven gives perpetual
glory to God the Father. As they explore the various aspects of the Roman rite,
the contributors to this splendid volume remind us of the celestial dimension
of our liturgical celebrations at the same time that they help us to appreciate
the theological and spiritual treasures of the liturgical tradition of the Church."
--Archbishop J. Augustine Di Noia, op
Secretary
of the Congregation of Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments
"Genius of the Roman Rite: Historical, Theological, and Pastoral Perspectives
on Catholic Liturgy, drawing upon the research of scholars from several nations,
speaks again to the sources of genuine liturgical renewal. Readers will find
their understanding of the history of the Roman liturgy deepened and should
therefore find strengthened their common worship of God."
--Francis Cardinal George, omi
Archbishop of Chicago
