Praticare e raccontare i santi segni
by Franco Giulio, Brambilla
Description
In 1927 Romano Guardini wrote a precious little book on The Holy Signs, with pages of incomparable depth. Franco Giulio Brambilla, a well-known theologian and pastor, takes up and revisits the theme in a current and captivating language.
The liturgical signs are here characterized by their prevailing trait: bodily signs (standing, kneeling, beating one’s chest, raising and imposing hands), creatural signs (water, light/fire, oil, bread and wine) and ritual signs (candle, ash, incense, robes, bells).
The result is a surprising journey that renews these symbols to hand over the fire of existence to the new generations.
