Spirit of the Liturgy - Or Should We Move on to Talk About Benedict?

In terms of the literate, yeah, Spirit of the Liturgy holds up. He wrote an earlier book called Feast of Faith and liturgical themes also come across in other places,. One document I would also point to that came out during his papacy is the post-cenotal apostolic exhortation on the liturgies. The church following the Second Vatican Council had something of an identity crisis because of the way things were handled. And Benedict recognized that the church had to come to terms with that.
