It focuses on ecumenism and inculturation as central test cases for a liturgically derived idea of church.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn hopes of invigorating the local church, Lathrop explores the meaning of the term \"church,\" the relationship of the local liturgical assembly and other Christian assemblies (catholicity); the personal and communal character of liturgical assembly; the unity of the churches; the critical principles of liturgy and culture; openness to what is radically other; and liturgical evangelization. Lathrop's work grounds a notion of church that is personal yet communal, universal, but not triumphalistic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gordon W.
