OUR DAILY BREAD. THE ANTHROPOLOGY OF FOOD AND DINING A STARTING POINT FOR UNDERSTANDING THE LITURGICAL SYMBOLS IN THE CELEBRATION OF THE SACRAMENT OF THE EUCHARIST

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is, in the light of the importance of anthropology, to investigate symbols of bread in the act of Eucharistic meal. Taking the food, eating, and having meal is a component of every living creature, without which it can not survive. Food, particularly eating together, establishes communication between people and by having meal together a number of explicitly formative messages are passed on to be adopted by the participants who are partaking. Anthropological observation of symbol of the Eucharistic bread, in order to achieve better communication of it, requires evaluation of its meaning in the modern world so that it can convey, with the greater conviction, its symbolical content in the liturgy. Symbol in liturgy, in order that speech about sacred can be built on it and conversation between man and God can be established, presupposes anthropological dimension of a sign.
