Can impeded Sundays be resumed on a semidouble feast? For some reason I thought yes, but Additiones et Variationes I, 6 doesn't mention it.

And what were the rules for resuming Sundays before Pius X?

@Paulus,

Not on a semi-double feast but it can be resumed in a common Octave.

@Paulus,

Sundays were never resumed, only anticipated or commemorated before Pius X. If any higher feast occurred on a Sunday (outside of the 1st Sunday of Advent and Lent), the Sunday was always commemorated at Matins (with the Gospel sermon being the ninth reading of Matins) and Lauds, with the Antiphon and Collect. There were special rules for anticipated Sundays.
