Since the mid 1960s, scholarly attention has been focused on the role of the Holy Spirit in the modern -- and now increasingly postmodern and 'post-Christian' -- world: first, there has been a resurgence of interest in the pneumatology of past eras; second, studies of the Spirit from a Pentecostal and Charismatic perspective have entered the mainstream of contemporary theological discussion and scholarship; third, interest in the Spirit has intersected with feminist, liberationist, ecological, global and interfaith concerns, among others, to produce a multitude of new constructive theological proposals in which the Spirit plays a prominent part. Now it is time to give attention to the liturgical role of the Spirit and the study of worship as a site of the Spirit's presence and work -- an approach that is thoroughly and expertly discussed in Eucharistic Epicleses."-- Forlagets omtale.
