Mass: A Primer | |
Multi Auctores | |
Especially in this era when it is increasingly under | |
attack, a thorough understanding of the perennial liturgy of | |
the Roman Church, the Mass, is necessary. Specifically, the | |
Mass of the Ages, as it was celebrated everywhere until | |
1965, and is still celebrated in many places today. The | |
Latin Mass is the purest expression of the theology of the | |
liturgical Sacrifice, and a source of riches that can never | |
be plumbed. | |
Taking material from Fr. Martin Cochem's Explanation | |
of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, Father Gihr's | |
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and Fr. Stedman's | |
My Sunday Missal (all in the public domain), this | |
little primer explains the principle parts of the Mass; the | |
symbolism of each part; the proper gestures to be made by | |
the faithful; and much more besides, with many newly-drawn | |
and many reproduced images. | |
A perfect introduction for anyone wanting to better | |
participate in the Mass, even if they've been attending for | |
many years. | |
