James and Philip, suppression of Proper Last Gospels and votive prayers, the absence of commemorations unless a major feast falls on a Sunday, and the fascistic obsession with having as many green Sundays as possible.<br /><br />In all fairness, the calender was quite overgrown by the time St Pius X fiddled, unsuccessfully, with the breviary. I can see why St Pius V trimmed the calendar down so much. I would also posit that the fascination with a great number of Counter-Reformation saints contributed to St Pius X's changes, like having several classes of semi-double Sundays.Romanitasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669950994040167422.post-53699976373096621362012-06-25T11:43:41.188+00:002012-06-25T11:43:41.188+00:00Dear Rubricarius,

Cael." but after the sharp warning by the moderator decided against it. A few of those posting said that the changes made in the 1962 Missal were "minor." I'm not sure what would constitute a major change for them, if the novelties of the 1955 Holy Week are a mere bagatelle.

Criticism was so harsh of that edition that the blog administrator, after accusing some posters of sedevacantism, shut down commentary! I can think of some priests in London and Rome who would not be welcomed in the comment box there!Romanitasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669950994040167422.post-49430203252116370392012-06-24T12:10:09.140+00:002012-06-24T12:10:09.140+00:00Joshua,

Whatever would have been done in choir?<br /><br />On this point, I recall consulting the Roman Octavarium, a lovely book providing optional lessons for use during various Octaves (all of which now sadly abolished). Since, so far as I know, it was only for optional use, would it therefore have been for private recitation only and not for use in choir?Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17387698013828199070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669950994040167422.post-40779976682415600862012-06-24T09:03:11.509+00:002012-06-24T09:03:11.509+00:00Should there not be a commemoration of the Fourth ...Should there not be a commemoration of the Fourth Sunday after Pentecost in the orations and Last Gospel of the Mass?Paleo-Conhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12932584031702915500noreply@blogger.com
