SRC made a point about this at the end of <i>Rubricarum instructum</i> etc with a decree to publishers of liturgical books dated 26 July 1960.

My knowledge of this stage of the liturgical reform is not great. At any rate, the 1570 Missal was a typical edition long before there was an AAS!<br /><br />Regarding the Julian Kalendar, I am all for a return to it.

The 1962 Missal was declared 'typical' by the SRC itself but this declaration never appeared in the <i>AAS</i>.<br /><br />One blogger-priest-canonist I know said that to be official something has to appear in the <i>AAS</i>. However, as much as I would like to belive that in particular relation to the 1962 Missal I do not think it correct. Elsewhere Fr. Anthony Cekada has made a convincing argument about promulgation of liturgical books etc and argues, convincingly to me at least, that promulgation really means making the expressed will of the legislator known (golly isn't Canon Law awful).<br /><br />If one looks in <i>AAS</i> then the only Missals declared 'typical' therein are the 1920 and 1970 editions (and probably later ones but I have never bothered to look those up).<br /><br />Paul Knight,<br /><br />I think one does need to argue the praxis of custom and what was sanctioned and indeed sanctifying at one point in history cannot be suddenly considered, as a result of postive legislation, harmful.Rubricariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050302650867319277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-46721517944033387162010-06-14T18:47:29.412+01:002010-06-14T18:47:29.412+01:00Actually, seeing as you mention it, the change fro...Actually, seeing as you mention it, the change from the Julian Kalendar to the Gregorian Kalendar has always been something I'm quite sympathetic to.

Of course I agree about your assessment of the SSPX, although I would see their choice to adopt '62 as coming from both ignorance of the Liturgy (they cannot possibly have chosen the '62 books on account of their merit) and an agenda against Vatican II.<br /><br />You raise interesting points re Summorum Pontificum. Regarding celebration of the Liturgy according to the rubrics of the 1570 Missal and 1568 Breviary, however, there are many problems. The most obvious is the Kalendar. The 1570 books followed the Julian Kalendar, moreover many saints' feasts had been excised from the Kalendar. Plus many rubrics of the 1570 Missal were later revised by Popes etc.Patrick Sheridanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07995907911415177074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-26102610972721605652010-06-14T18:25:06.647+01:002010-06-14T18:25:06.647+01:00"...whereas the 1962 liturgical books were ju..."...whereas the 1962 liturgical books were juridically abrogated in 1965, a mere three years after they came into force!"<br /><br />Patricius,<br /><br />I must beg to differ with you and suggest the above is far too loose.<br /><br />The promulgation of the 1965 <i>Ordo Missae</i>, <i>Ritus servandus</i> and <i>De defectibus</i> certainly derogated the use of the 1962 MR but did not abrogate it. Both the 1965 rite and the later 1967 rite make reference to the new rubrics (1960) and the lessons, collects were, taken from the 1962 plenary missal (except for various lectionaries on 2/3 year cycles introduced in some places in 1967 onwards).<br /><br />I think you could argue that the 1962 <i>Ordo Missae</i>, <i>Ritus</i> etc were abrogated - certainly they could not, officially, be followed. <br /><br />As Traditionalist Canonists (DuLac, Capponi, Glover, Cekada etc) point out Paul VI's <i>Missale Romanum</i> abrogated rites that were not of immemorial or centennial custom (c.f. with the wording of <i>Divino afflatu</i>). However, clearly the rites of 1962, 1965 and 1967 could claim neither immemorial or centennial custom.<br /><br />Generally the right to use liturgical books are abrogated, not the books, <i>per se</i>, themselves.Rubricariushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05050302650867319277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-4663219292052872512010-06-14T18:15:56.081+01:002010-06-14T18:15:56.081+01:00That 1962 is an arbitary cut-off point, full of ul...That 1962 is an arbitary cut-off point, full of ultramontane refoms is beyond any doubt. The SSPX missed a great opportunity when Archbishop Lefebvre decided to use those books. It's as if they lacked the balls when they were really needed. The result is that they've just made things a lot harder for subsequent generations. I've never really liked reference to Quo Primum either, because it's essentially liturgy by papal decree, even if the liturgical books codified by Pius V are what was received from our fathers (because it's kind of like coming to the right conclusion but for the wrong reasons).<br /><br />If we actually look to part of the Holy Father's reasoning behind Summorum Pontificum there is no reason why a priest could not celebrate mass, for example, using the 1570 missal or the Divine Office using the Psalter of Pius V because, "What earlier generations held as sacred, remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful." If that can be applied to the 1962 books then that automatically applies to earlier liturgical books. We just needs priests with the balls to do it.Paul Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18013703547416529122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8192580971664762668.post-27469979101000194062010-06-14T18:15:05.081+01:002010-06-14T18:15:05.081+01:00First of all, you do not ''post'' ...First of all, you do not ''post'' here - I post, you comment, and your comments are published at my say so.
