Sacrosanctum Concilium and the liturgical rituality in the culture of our time

Abstract

In this article, we present four positions developed before the Council Vatican II and the reform of the liturgy during the last fifty years, showing, at the same time, the type of rituality linked to these positions. From this kind of topographical map, we return to Sacrosanctum Concilium and to its liturgical design to finally face the hermeneutical question: how to discern the dynamics of liturgical rituality today? How to interpret, accept and advance the conciliar constitution on the liturgy taking into account the current situation of liturgical rituality?
