Below are listed, with downloadable pdfs, the 33 Position Papers produced by the FIUV over several years to address topics relating to the 1962 Missal:
- to explain features which may seem puzzling (the use of Latin, the priest facing East, the reception of Holy Communion on the tongue, and only under the species of bread, etc.)
- to explain how this Missal can assist the Church in evangelisation, both within the Church, by stimulating debate on issues such as the Eucharistic Fast, and outside the Church, by its special appeal for certain regions and groups (China, Africa, children, men, and so on).
The papers have now been thoroughly revised and collected into a single volume, and published by Angelico Press with a Preface by Cardinal Burke under the title: The Case for Liturgical Restoration.
Buy the book here (in the UK), or from Amazon; here is the more info here.
“The importance of the publication of The Case for Liturgical Restoration: Una Voce Studies on the Traditional Latin Mass cannot be exaggerated.”
“The Case for Liturgical Restoration represents a comprehensive, competent, balanced, and constructive contribution to the field of liturgical science, and above all to liturgical life and practice in the Church of our days.”
