Two New Printings - Missale Romanum, Rituale Romanum

Shawn Tribe

A couple of liturgical book notices came NLM's way yesterday.

The first is a newly typeset edition of the 1962 Missale Romanum (which will soon be available for order from fraternitypublications.com):



The second is a new printing of the Rituale Romanum:

This is the first edition of the Rituale Romanum since 1957. It is based upon the last Editio typica of 1952, supplemented by all the benedictions approved by the Holy See until 1957. This new edition complies with canon law and regulations and was granted the Imprimatur according to can. 826 II CIC by His Excellency Bishop Gregor Maria Hanke OSB.

In contrast to the editions of 1952 and 1957 the new edition contains the traditional Vulgate psalms. Text layout and indeed the beauty of the volume show that we have observed the high quality standards of the great liturgical publishing houses of the past.

We cordially invite you to have a look at the following pages for further information about the new edition of the Rituale Romanum.

With these links you can view some photos of both the interior and binding.

The church of Milan today celebrates the feast of the martyr St Victor, a Christian soldier from the Roman province of Africa, who was killed in the first year of the persecution of Diocletian, 303 AD, while serving at Milan under the Emperor Maximian. He is usually called “Maurus - the Moor” to distinguish him from the innumerable other Saints ca...

The Solemnity of St Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church 2025Gregory DiPippo
From the Encyclical Quamquam pluries of Pope Leo XIII on St Joseph, issued on the feast of the Assumption in 1889. It is providential that the conclave to elect a new pope should begin on this important solemnity; let us remember to count Joseph especially among the Saints to whom we address our prayers for a good outcome of this election. The spe...

Why the Traditional Mass Should Remain In LatinPeter Kwasniewski
In spite of attempts to suppress it, the traditional Latin Mass is here to stay. It may not be as widespread as it was in the halcyon days of Summorum Pontificum, but neither is it exactly hidden under a bushel, as the early Christians were during the Roman persecutions. In many cites, gigantic parishes run by former Ecclesia Dei institutes are pac...

In honor of the feast of St John at the Latin Gate, here is a very beautiful illuminated manuscript which I stumbled across on the website of the Bibliothèque national de France (Département des Manuscrits, Néerlandais 3), made 1400.

The Feast of St Vincent FerrerGregory DiPippo
The feast of St Vincent Ferrer was traditionally assigned to the day of his death, April 5th, but I say “assigned to” instead of “kept on” advisedly; that date falls within either Holy Week or Easter week so often that its was either translated or omitted more than it was celebrated on its proper day. [1] For this reason, in 2001 the Dominicans mov...
