"Religion in Present-Day Greece: Facts and Challenges"

Dr. Groen, chair of liturgical studies and sacramental theology and the director of the Institute of Liturgy, Christian Art, and Hymnology at the University of Graz, is a scholar of liturgical and ritual studies, who focuses on the role of language (both verbal and nonverbal) in the various Eastern and Western liturgical traditions, past and present. His research project on Adequate Liturgical Language and Vernacular Tongues will examine the tension between the language used in worship and the actual vernacular tongue, an issue having to do with cultural and religious identity, questions of unity and uniformity of ecclesiastical worship, and with the intelligibility of liturgical rites.
