Dear Dr. Brundage
> Sorry to be so fuzzy--liturgy isn't really my field.
You certainly have no reason to feel apologetic. I am extremely grateful to
have received advice from so fine a scholar as yourself.
BTW, you recommended Ritzer, and every reference I have seen to it is to the
French edition you cited. I only have access to the German _Formen, Riten
und religioses Brauchtum der Eheschliessung in den christlichen Kirchen des
ersten Jahrtausends_ (from which the French was translated?). Is there a
reason scholars have chosen to use the French edition over the German - more
or updated material, for example?
