About the Author

Dom Gregory Dix (1901– 1952) was an English monk and priest of Nashdom Abbey, UK.

Reviews

Liturgy, for Dom Gregory Dix, is no branch of archaeological study; it is in all its stages and forms the living Body of Christ upon earth. His account of it is alive and absorbing.
*Church Times*

The Shape of the Liturgy changes not only the shape of liturgical study but also profoundly influenced worship itself. Half a century after its publication we are, perhaps, beginning to discover the debt we owe to Dom Gregory Dix.
*Simon Bailey, Biographer*

This 764 page work was first published in 1945 and has had seven reprintings, the latest being in 2015. This latest edition has been cited 558 times (Google Scholar). … The book is well worth reading.
*Catholic Books Review*
