MAZZINI, María Marcela. Practices of spirituality according to Elizabeth Liebert. Approximation to her thinking and exemplification in a case study. Franciscanum [online]. 2018, vol.60, n.169, pp.239-271. ISSN 0120-1468.

The objective of this article is to establish the meaning of «practices of spirituality» according to Elizabeth Liebert and to see an application of this expression in a case study. After introducing the author to the chosen concept and highlighting its importance, focus will be placed on a definition-description of what a practice of spirituality would be for Liebert and from that perspective the points of contact between pastoral theology and spirituality as academic discipline will be analyzed, as well as the relationship between practice and experience and the role of practices in the development of spirituality as an academic discipline. In this first part four of Liebert's writings will be especially followed. In a second moment, we'll try to explain how Liebert's concepts on practices of spirituality could be applied in a case study.

Palabras clave : Practices; spirituality; experience; pastoral; hospice.
