Communal Reconciliation in Pre-Reformation England: Lessons from the Seven-Sacrament Fonts of East Anglia

All but two are in Norfolk and Suffolk.' They were first described in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and have more recently been the subject of a major study by Ann Eljenholm Nichols." Nichols establishes the archaeological data for the fonts and locates them within a comprehensive survey of the iconography of the sacraments.' The fonts are particularly interesting because they witness to sacramental practice at a well-defined time and place: they were produced during a fifty-year period after the mid-1460s, though a couple of them were carved later, at the very last possible moment, in 1536 and 1544. One area of research which has been left underdeveloped is the contribution these panels make to our understanding of the celebration of the liturgy on the eve of the Reformation in England." Nichols has shown that the variety in the images indicates that the fonts were not produced in a workshop according to a standardized formula. In addition, the rather crude carving on a number of the fonts

L'Invicible Soleil De L'Été: Liturgie et Temps, Une Vue Des Antipodes

Pour developper son argumentation, il prend en exemple la fete de Noel. D'un point de vue liturgique, est-il sense de celebrer Noel en plein ete alors que la fete, son interpretation, ses textes euchologiques ont ete elabores au creuset du solstice d'hiver dans l'hemisphere nord ? A partir d'une etude des textes patristiques et euchologiques, l'auteur propose une reflexion sur le rapport entre tradition et adaptation de la celebration du mystere a la specificite du climat et du paysage.

A View from the Antipodes. the Invincible Summer Sun

Australia is ahead of the world! When it is today in Sydney, it is still last night in Europe and... more Australia is ahead of the world! When it is today in Sydney, it is still last night in Europe and yesterday in North America. Time and place are thus intimately linked. Summer in the south is winter in the north. The sun and moon and the arrangement of the stars which mark the passage of time also locate us in our particular place. It is, each in our particular place, that we pray the liturgical hodie/today. "Today in Christ the announcement of our regeneration has shone forth"; 1 "Today you have revealed in Christ the mystery of our salvation as a light for the nations";2 "Today you sent the Holy Spirit."> Something momentous is taking place in the here and now which is linked to the historical Christ-event in the there and then by the great arc of liturgical anamnesis, lifting us out of time and place into the kairos of the Day of Salvation. From one point of view, an anamnetic understanding of liturgical time might seem to make the here and now ir...
