Time and prayer
Time and prayer, dialogues and monologues on the secret of the Liturgy of the Hours. The book proposes a precious reevaluation of the ritual and rhythmic prayer: the Liturgy of the Hours has the capacity to structure time in an essential way and to fill it with meaning. A philosophical introduction suggests a reflection on three different visions of time present in the current culture. An underlining about the reciprocal dependence of theology and anthropology follows, for the full enhancement of the relation between time and prayer and to read the apparent contradiction between ritual prayer and free time in a positive way. The text ends with the explanation of the meaning of the different hours of the daily prayer.
Customer Reviews
Alfredo C.5/14/2024Il saggio del Prof. Grillo non è solo una lettura liturgico filosofica del tempo ma una riflessione teologica indispensabile per chi vuole pregare con frutto in quella struttura templare della Liturgia delle ore. Altamente consigliato.
