Liturgy and literature have had a complex historical relationship. This applies equally to the culture of the Middle Ages, so heavily influenced by Christianity, as well as to the modern era. This book studies exemplary cases from a range of disciplines (linguistics, literary studies, history, philosophy, and theology) to illuminate overlap and disjunction between the two domains. It thus explores a long-neglected field of study.
