Using the resources (human, financial, and technological) of the University of Notre Dame \u2013 which in healthier times would have physically hosted the gathering &#8211; the various papers were recorded via Zoom weeks before the event (to be viewed at the leisure of participants leading up to the conference), the keynote presentations closer to the actual dates, and an imaginative use of livestreamed conversations between speakers (both at the \u201csmaller\u201d paper level and with the keynote speakers and their respective respondents). In addition, ND used the \u201cDiscord\u201d platform for social gatherings, and interspersed liturgies online with all of the above.<br \/><br \/>Societas Liturgica is always thematic, and this year it was \u201cLiturgy and the Arts.\u201d From the website, SL described it this way:<br \/>\u201cOur 2021 Congress topic concerns the relationship between liturgy and the arts, which we recognize as lively and even volatile. Aidan Kavanagh, in his <em>On Liturgical Theology,<\/em> describes the church as \u201cimmersed in artistic discourse.\u201d In the liturgy, the \u201cworld is done rightly,\u201d for the good of the \u201cpolis.\u201d The ways that the arts are integrated into the liturgy, the dialogue between liturgy and the arts, is established by history, culture, and theology. At the same time, liturgy and the arts engage one another in a prophetic, a pastoral, and a political dialogue. In this year\u2019s Congress, we explore these multiple dimensions, from the early church to the church of tomorrow, from baptism to death, and from the upper room to cyberspace.\u201d <br \/><br \/>The keynote speakers addressed the topic from four different \u2018corners\u2019: <br \/>Fran\u00e7ois Cassingena-Tr\u00e9vedy addressed <strong>liturgy as art itself<\/strong> (<em>La Liturgie Comme Po\u00ef\u00e9tique Fondamentale<\/em>) summarized in a brief abstract: \u201chere, we attend to liturgical action as both inspired and a place of inspiration; as creative, formational and celebratory, yet also holding the potential for transcendence. All of this requires mediation, and Lawrence J. Hoffmann describes the liturgy as &#8220;an art which uses other arts&#8221; (<em>Worship<\/em> 94.1, 2020).\u201d Cassingena-Tr\u00e9vedy\u2019s talk was responded to by Arnaud Montoux.<br \/><br \/>David Brown addressed <strong>the arts in liturgy<\/strong> (<em>Liturgical Constraints and Openness in Divine Address<\/em>), described by the planning committee as \u201cthe liturgy is immersed in space and time. For Aidan Kavanagh, this demands that &#8220;critique of the sonic, visual, spatial and kinetic arts&#8221; be a part of liturgical theology (<em>On Liturgical Theology,<\/em> 143). Such a critique should be mutually beneficial and must open up the liturgy as an imaginative space.\u201d Gerald Liu was the respondent for this keynote presentation.<br \/><br \/>Deborah Sokolove focused on <strong>liturgy and the arts<\/strong> (<em>Liturgy, the Arts, and the Need of the World<\/em>), again described by the organizers as \u201cwe wish to affirm the great value of discussing aesthetic merit, style, taste, artistic commissions, and the role of the Churches as patrons of the arts. We also explore the lively juxtaposition of liturgy and the arts as an ongoing phenomenon, as well as their \u2018tumultuous history\u2019, enacted between the extremes of idolatry and iconoclasm.\u201d Marcia McFee responded to the presentation.<\/p>\r\n<p>Lastly, Mirella Klomp spoke to <strong>liturgy as public art<\/strong> (<em>Ars Iudendi: Urban Liturgies as Public Service in a Secular World<\/em>), building on \u201cthe liturgy has an obligation to be prophetic and to bear testimony, within the life of its practitioners, and its encounters with the secular world. We explore how participants collectively might become &#8220;a fitting testimony&#8221; (1 Timothy 6:13), as well recovering as the ancient sense of liturgy as \u2018work on behalf of the people.\u2019\u201d The respondent here was Dominik Abel.<br \/><br \/>In addition to these four keynote presentations (and their respondents), there was the <em>Presidential Address<\/em>, this year by Dr. Bridget Nichols, who worked with images and words to reflect on liturgy in a time of pandemic: \u201cExile\u201d has become a popular metaphor for the Church under pandemic conditions, and the experience of the returning exiles described in the Book of Ezra comes immediately to mind. The writer describes the lavish scene following the laying of the foundations of the new temple: there were priests clad in vestments and blowing trumpets, Levites banging cymbals, and singers offering choruses of praise to a faithful God. This ceremonial activity drew shouts of praise from the people, but not from all of them. Some of those who returned were old enough to remember the first temple to have stood in that place, and they wept loudly. The combined effect was at once extraordinary and intensely human: \u201cthe people could not distinguish the sound of the joyful shout from the sound of the people\u2019s weeping, for the people shouted so loudly that the sound was heard far away\u201d (Ezra 3:10-13 NRSV). There will undoubtedly be both weeping and laughter, and somehow, both responses will have to be acknowledged and honoured.\u201d<br \/><br \/>Between these primary presentations, there were 37 shorter talks, arranged somewhat by topic in groups of two or three for the \u2018real time\u2019 discussion sessions. The shorter talks addressed the overall theme of \u201cLiturgy and the Arts\u201d from very different perspectives, having been accepted as papers because they followed one of the defined 7 research axes which provided some structure to the thematic focus of the congress (papers were primarily situated in and spoke from the anthropological, the cultural\/intercultural, the historical, the theological, the pastoral, the prophetic, or the public\/political). These shorter papers, as well as the keynote presentations, all crossed over into other areas and took multiple approaches to their own topic, as is to be expected.<\/p>\r\n<p>Part of the delight of <em>Societas Liturgica<\/em> gatherings is the international and multilingual cultural perspectives, which are always challenging and eye-opening. The discussion sessions allowed for questions that, at their best, always added the \u201cbut, what if\u201d that speakers may not have considered. In spite of the lack of physical presence (so central to gatherings of liturgists) there was in these formal presentations and the ability to participate in focused reflections on the talks a bit of the spark of the in-person gatherings which often culminate in so many tables \u2013 breakfast, bar, and eucharistic. Many, many thanks are still owed to the SL council for their work, to the local committee (in huge ways) for making this work as well as it did. There was also much hope expressed for the future gathering in the \u201ctraditional way\u201d, Maynooth in 2023.<br \/><br \/><br \/><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From July 20th to the 22nd, a number of liturgical scholars around the world gathered together in a technologically brilliant congress of Societas Liturgica, the primary ecumenical, multi-lingual and global organization for those engaged professionally and otherwise in liturgical studies.
