Abstract

KRUGER, Ferdi P.. Recognition (remembrance) as mechanism in identifying the meaning of the liturgical elements in a worship service. Verbum Eccles. (Online) [online]. 2017, vol.38, n.1, pp.1-10. ISSN 2074-7705.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/ve.v38i1.1694.

INTRADISCIPLINARY AND/OR INTERDISCIPLINARY IMPLICATIONS: This article is undertaken from a practical-theological vantage point in order to highlight the importance of the concept of recognition for further research within the field of liturgics. In this article a discourse between Practical Theology, Church History and Cognitive Psychology is undertaken. Important aspects were indicated and also the importance of the concept of anamnesis. The importance of understanding and remembrance were also indicated. The concept of anamnesis was discussed according to 1 Corinthians 11:25 and Hebrews 10:3. Finally, practical-theological perspectives were offered in which the importance of recognition for certain liturgical elements was indicated. This particular study could possibly contribute towards better insight into the influence of remembrance in liturgy and also enable participants to understand the essence of liturgy during worship services.
