by
Lawrence A. Rabbi Hoffman (Author)
This unique and groundbreaking study moves “beyond the texts” of prayers to carefully study the worshipping community from an anthropological perspective. Hoffman’s innovative approach opens up the world of prayer to the academy and the community at large. With the publication of this book, the study of liturgy will never again be the same.
Back Jacket
This book is about a household activity, if not a household word; an activity that engages us all with that very degree of regularity which breeds indifference: liturgy, or, to be more precise, worship, or, to be more precise still, the variety of rituals in which religious people, particularly, engage.
