Liturgical Theology after Schmemann
While only rarely reflecting explicitly on liturgy, French philosopher Paul Ricoeur (1913-2005) gave sustained attention to several themes pertinent to the interpretation of worship, including metaphor, narrative, subjectivity, and memory. Inspired by his well-known aphorism, “The symbol gives rise to thought,” Liturgical Theology after Schmemann offers an original exploration of the symbolic world of the Byzantine Rite , culminating in a Ricoeurian analysis of its Theophany “Great Blessing of Water.” . The book examines two fundamental questions: 1) what are the implications of the philosopher’s oeuvre for liturgical theology at large? And 2)how does the adoption of a Ricoeurian hermeneutic shape the study of a particular rite? Taking the seminal legacy of Orthodox theologian Alexander Schmemann (1921-1983) as its point of departure, Butcher contributes to the renewal of contemporary Eastern Christian thought and ritual practice by engaging a spectrum of current theological and philosophical conversations.

Traduire le sublime
En s’attachant aux textes bibliques, l’histoire occidentale de la traduction a privilégié les traditions juive, catholique et protestante. Pour la première fois, cette étude analyse les débats sur la traduction liturgique qui ont cours dans l’Église orthodoxe russe où le service divin demeure en slavon de l’Église faute d’être traduit en russe courant. Examiner les raisons de ne pas traduire invoquées par l’Église russe conduit à analyser le point de vue des traditionalistes tel qu’il s’est opposé à celui des réformateurs au fil de l’histoire. Les débats de la fin du XIXe siècle et du XXe siècle sont au coeur de la thèse. Les arguments philologiques et théologiques qui sous-tendent les deux positions sont évalués en fonction des particularités de la liturgie orthodoxe. Cette étude contribue à enrichir le champ de la traduction des textes sacrés en apportant un éclairage inédit sur la tradition orthodoxe à laquelle les traductologues européens et nord-américains ont prêté peu d’intérêt.
Divine Liturgies - Human Problems in Byzantium, Armenia, Syria and Palestine
In obedience to Jesus' command, 'Do this in remembrance of me', the ritual repetition of the Lord's Supper down through the ages and across multiple Christian cultures in the liturgies of East and West, has given rise, inevitably, to innumerable diversities of shape, text, cultural context, and theological interpretation, as well as to debates, sometimes heated, among modern experts as to the methodologies for resolving the problems arising from these differences. The problems of cultural history, structural, historical, and textual reconstruction, theological interpretation, and method involved in the modern scholarly debate on these issues, are the object of the studies in this volume, dedicated to the liturgies of Byzantium, Armenia, Syria, and Palestine.
