Ex Fonte
Journal of Ecumenical Studies in Liturgy

The new journal for Liturgical Studies is an international and ecumenically oriented platform for a dialogue between liturgical history and liturgical theology. The multifaceted historical dimensions of Christian worship enrich a present-day liturgical-theological discussion. In this way, the contribution of liturgical studies to a renewal of ecumenical efforts is accentuated and affirmed. The journal opens up the possibility of ecumenical dialogue between Eastern and Western traditions, and can also be expanded to include interreligious contributions, for example from Judaism and Islam. Not every contribution has to deal explicitly with ecumenical liturgical theology. However, the authors and their submitted contributions are committed to a basic ecumenical intention.

This cross-traditional orientation of the journal is also reflected in the international and mixed-denominational scholarly board and the multilingualism of the individual contributions.
