PATRICIA BEALL AND MARTHA KEYS BARKER The Folk Arts in Renewal. Creativity in Worship, Teaching and Festivity as Developed By The Fisherfolk
Great Britain, Hoddeer & Stoufghton, 1980. First Edition, Binding: Cloth, Ruth Wieting Very Good/Fair. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall 0340251549 Hardback This major volume, the fruit of ten years experience, marks a revolution in Christian worship and expression. In 1969, the Church of the Redeemer, Houston, recognised the need for a new language to communicate the reality of the Christian faith, to penetrate the world's 'word-weariness': a language of sounds and rhythm, of imagination and visual perception, of movement and drama. The materials in this book are the treasures we have unearthed both in our community worship and through the travelling ministry of the Fisherfolk. They include a comprehensive discussion on the use of the Folk Arts in worship, education and festivity; practical examples of mime, dance, poetry, drama and story telling; and guidelines for the setting up of workshops. The whole is a valuable teaching tool for the effective use of the Folk Arts. Wear and tear and a couple of very small pieces missing from D/J. Price clipped. .
