“Eis o mistério da fé” a sagrada liturgia como encontro nupcial entre Cristo e a igreja a partir da doutrina caseliana dos mistérios

Abstract

The present work discusses liturgical theology from the contribution of Odo Casel's Doctrine of the Mysteries. Starting from the historical context that urges the Church to search for its sources, one arrives at the Liturgical Movement in which Casel finds himself. Based on pagan cult mysteries, he develops his liturgical science. In it, the Liturgy manifests itself as the “Mystery of Christ and of the Church”. From this, the central proposition of this work is based: the Liturgy as the Mystery of the Encounter between Christ and the Church, in which each person takes part in the configuration to Christ and incorporation into the Church that is his body.
