Re: Re: reorganisation and destruction of irish catholic churches

I am posting some comments from Stephen Schloeder’s book Architecture in Communion published in San Francisco by Ignatius Press in 1998. Schloeder is a good representative of the contemporary ascendent current of thought in the United States on liturgy and art. While I do not quite share everything Shloeder says, especially in translating principles into practical architecture, I do recognise a freshness in his approach deriving from a critical mind at work on an hegemony that has been far too compaisant and far too much of a monopoly for far too long.
