The Dynamics of Liturgy Joseph Ratzinger’s Theology of Liturgy Fr Vincent Twomey
“Fr.
Twomey is one of the foremost authorities on the theology of Joseph Ratzinger, and
carries the distinction of having been a student of Professor Ratzinger. He can
thus be said to enjoy a ‘connatural’ understanding of the mind of Ratzinger. What
is distinctive about this work is hoe he walks the reader across the bridge between
Ratzinger’s fundamental theology and his liturgical theology, including Ratzinger’s
insistence on the cosmic character of the liturgy. Few commentators on Ratzinger’s
theology approach their subject with Fr Twomey’s breadth of cultural experience.”

them to the heart of Christ. If you are looking for sanity and sanctity, then you
need to read—and live—this book.” --Fr. Robert McTeigue, S.J., Author, Real Philosophy
