La tradition dans la pratique liturgique réformée française

Abstract

The problem of the relationship between tradition and religion is particularly interesting in the field of liturgy. This article examines it in relation to the French Reformed ecclesial tradition. An observation from the field indicates that liturgy is considered as received. This leads to a historical look focusing on three periods, the 16th, 19th, and 20th centuries. This overview indicates that practice is the product of heritages regularly reconfigured and inhabited by people who contribute to their reception and evolution.
