Resumo:This collective volume is devoted to the various manifestations of liturgy in the Middle Ages, based on a great variety and wealth of primary sources. Coming from diverse historiographical and disciplinary traditions, the authors have focused on different aspects of liturgy, but all with the common denominator of seeking to trace the notion of liturgy and some of its ritual manifestations, as well as its spiritual, political and material ramifications. The word “liturgy” was originally used in a Christian context to refer to “public work” or “service in the name/on behalf of the people”. In Christian tradition, liturgy is synonymous with the participation of the People of God in divine action. In the New Testament, the word “liturgy” refers not only the celebration of divine worship, but also to the proclamation of the Gospel and active charity. Christian liturgy has been endowed with charisma since Antiquity
