Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Roman rite, once the serene inheritance of countless saints, was not abruptly overturned in the late 1960s, as a conventional traditionalist narrative suggests; instead, it was subjected to a process of gradual dismantling in the mid-twentieth century, prior to the coup de grâce delivered by Paul VI's Consilium. Among the most significant turning points was the imposition of a 'reformed' Holy Week in 1955 under Pope Pius XII. This was no gentle pruning or 'restoration' but a momentous rupture, a deliberate reshaping of ancient ceremonies to fit the mind of modern man, an attempt to reimagine and improve upon the past rather than receiving it humbly as the treasure it is. As a result, the 1962 liturgical books bear the wounds of earlier deformations and anticipate wounds yet to come.
