Breviarium Romano-Seraphicum
Today my "new" Breviarium Romano-Seraphicum arrived in the mail, published by the authority of our minister general Clement of Milwaukee in 1962. According to Summorum pontificum 9,3 I now have permission to use this version if I wish. (And if I can learn how!) The set seems to have once been ad usum for a Father Louis of the Couvent des Capucins in Mons, Belgium. They have a nice website you can visit here. Louis must have passed from this life or returned to the world soon after inscribing his name in his new breviaries, because they are hardly used.

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.
I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.
If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
That is so cool.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get it?
I ordered it from a rare book dealer in the Netherlands that I found just by searching the title. A treasure at 70 Euro, no?
ReplyDeleteAt today's rate that's like $102, Right?
ReplyDeleteYes, a great deal, but out of my budget.
I'm still trying to justify replacing the old St. Andrew Daily Missal I use, that I found at the thrift store for $2, for the new Baronius Press 1962 missal which is $55.
Cool! I have a copy of the breviarium monasticum (Benedictine) that I dearly love...I found it when a monastery in California was selling off some of its old books. I'll definitely grab them if the house is burning down.

ReplyDeleteWhat is the difference between the Ordinary "Breviarium Romanum"?
ReplyDeleteThis would include the proper celebrations of the Franciscan calendar.
