Problem of Latinization: no Exit?
Koonammakkal, Thomas (Redakcja Wydawnictw Wydziału Teologicznego Uniwersytetu Opolskiego, 2017)
In this study the author reflects on the problem of latinization in the Churches derived from the ancient Indian communities of so-called St. Thomas Christians. He himself as a priest of the Syro-Malabar Church points on the heritage of the Indian Christians and painfully describes his Church as a latinized form of an Oriental Church. He recalls two stages of the latinization: in 16lh and 19th centuries. However, for maintaining the final effects of this process he blames the hierarchy of the Syro-Malabar Church itself. As an exit from this situation he suggests the return ad fontes which in this case means the return to the liturgical spirituality and oriental Christianity.
