Title: Is the Catholic Liturgy Playful? Engaging with Romano Guardini.
Abstract: It is easy to imagine one of the “New Atheists” describing the Catholic liturgy as “play” with no “purpose.” Yet these very terms were used by the respected liturgist, Romano Guardini, in the chapter “The Playfulness of the Liturgy” of his book The Spirit of the Liturgy.
