Overview

This book presents and evaluates the liturgical vision of Pope Benedict XVI and the theological background underlying that vision. It describes the main features of Joseph Ratzinger s theology of the liturgy and analyses them within the context of his theology as a whole. Ratzinger s evaluation of the contemporary Roman Catholic liturgy is explored in relation to his overall assessment of the post-Vatican II era in the Church, alongside an examination of his project of liturgical renewal ( reform of the reform ) and its practical implementation during his pontificate. The author discusses the various critical voices which have been raised against the Pope s liturgical agenda and against certain aspects of his general theology. Overall, the book offers an assessment of the importance of Ratzinger s vision for the Church at the threshold of the third millennium.
