"For decades, Jasper and Cuming's Prayers of the Eucharist has given a wide audience access to the treasures of liturgical tradition. By integrating recently discovered texts, rearranging the material, and thoroughly updating introductions and commentary, Paul Bradshaw and Maxwell Johnson ensure that this standard work remains a reliable guide not only to the sources, but also to current scholarship."Harald Buchinger, University of Regensburg, Germany "Bradshaw and Johnson have produced an edition of the classic Prayers of the Eucharist: Early and Reformed that every contemporary textual scholar must have. Coming nearly thirty years after the last edition, this new revision reflects the substantial amount of critical work that has been completed since then. The restructuring of the work-placing the prayers in textual `families'-allows the scholar to see more clearly the relationships between and within various eucharistic prayer traditions. In updating this text, Bradshaw and Johnson have drawn not only on their own extensive research in this area but have also mined the depth of other recent scholarship to demonstrate the complexity of current debates (including the work of McGowan, Rouwhorst, Stewart-Sykes, Gelston, Spinks, and Winkler, to name just a few). The revisions in both commentary and text reflect the multiplicity of forms in eucharistic praying in the early church and invite the student of liturgy to enter more deeply into the texts themselves."Rev. R. Gabriel Pivarnik, OP, Department of Theology, Providence College "Having a handy collection of texts is a boon, especially when that collection is more or less up to date with the status of scholarship. Let us hope that from now on `Jasper and Cuming' will really mean only one thing: `Jasper, Cumming, Bradshaw and Johnson.'"Anaphora
