Omschrijving
In this wide-ranging book that moves from Greek drama to modern poetry, from the meaning of the Logos to the history of vestments, David Brown explores the ways in which poetry and drama in the past were rooted in religious questions. Their creative potential needs to be re-discovered, to bring present-day worship and experience of God alive.
Brown's observations are frequently striking and often sharp...this book is beautifully written, always thought-provoking, and displays vast, quirkily juxtapositioned erudition.
A necessarily short review cannot do justice to the wide range of these two volumes, which witness to an impressive mastery of multi-faceted material, as well as Brown's ability to present it in a highly readable and engaging style...warmly commended, and it is to be hoped that others will follow where David Brown has led.
Brown has written a provocative work of sophisticated theology that, because it wears its learning so lightly, has much to offer the general reader.
It is not possible to read a book by David Brown without being challenged, informed, and provoked to think again about received assumptions and expectations...[it is a] privilege [to be] invited to revisit familiar liturgical experiences in the company of such an engaging companion and to know them as if for the first time.
