The Liturgical Year
Reviews:

starsIncomparable
More suitable trumpet could greet the landlord ' Summorum Pontificum ' of motu of Benedict Xvi releasing the ancient Roman liturgy only this publication in the press of Austin Saint of monumental liturgical year of Dom Gueranger. The majesty of large of the chief of work Bénédictine, his width, indeed its holy breath, are the components of a miracle in religious literature. It occurs with me that even while Gueranger saved the large abbey of Solesmes of disappearance, and Roman sing degredation, he gifts the church however magnificiently by this work. If you want to include/understand heart what occurred in the church during forty last years, you only need read the liturgical year. Side forwards, the richness of this chief of work will prove true food for many people lately shaken by their first meeting with the inexpressible Roman liturgy, budding now everywhere around the world. Lire Dom Gueranger is to see the future. I have liked this work during years, most particularly these supreme orders of Adam de Saint-Vainqueur. The purse of Gueranger is bored with the contents pricking and is spoken with the monastic insurance about length-of-days. It is a joy to read to learn, and for the devotion, and traditional Missal is his/her lengthily matured companion. The liturgical year is a singular work of art, the study and the spirituality. Pressure De Holy Viva Austin! Viva Gueranger!


starsA must for every Catholic Library
These volumes written by Dom Gueranger are well written and a must read by every Catholic. Dom Gueranger was abbot of the great Benedictine monastery of Solesmes. He restored, almost single-handedly, the tradition of Gregorian Chant to its original purity and it can still be heard today at Solesmes and Fontgombault.

Dom Gueranger's purpose in compiling these fifteen volumes was to arouse the faithful from their spiritual torpor by familiarizing them with the official prayer of the Church as developed in the liturgical periods of the year. The first part is devoted to Advent; the second contains the explanation of the divine service from Christmas to the Purification; the third takes us from the Purification as far as Lent and is called Septuagesima; the fourth comprises the first four weeks of Lent; the fifth consists of Passion Week and Holy Week; the sixth includes the Office of the Church from Trinity to the end of July; the eighth gives August and September, and the ninth finishes the year by giving the Liturgy of October and November.

The year thus planned for us by the Church herself produces a drama, the sublimest that has ever been offered to the admiration of men. Cardinal Manning, referring to Dom Gueranger's commentary, called it "a prelude to a better world and an avenue to the Vision of Peace". I agree with the previous reviewer, these volumes are worth their weight in gold.


starsThe Truth of the Catholic Liturgy
Dom Gueranger wrote "liturgical year well." It drew all the stops being studied, document, requests and presents the richness and the plenitude of our faith and tradition from us catholics including/understanding several of our saints and devoted people. These volumes are "in value their weight out of gold." If all knew what the Gueranger abbot called about the church, ALL would be well! Appreciate
