More about the book
The book explores the evolution of the Christian liturgical year, a concept that emerged in the late sixteenth century. It reveals how early Christians perceived festivals and fasts as distinct and often conflicting cycles rather than a cohesive system. By examining recent research, the authors detail the historical development of significant celebrations and observances, including the Sabbath, Holy Week, Easter, Christmas, and various feasts dedicated to saints and the Virgin Mary, highlighting the complex interplay of these traditions over time.
