Overview

The Oxford Movement changed the course of English Church history in the nineteenth century. The growing interest in reviving Catholic elements of liturgy and theology in the English Church sparked debate between the Church of England’s evangelical and High Church elements. Proponents of the Anglo-Catholic revival sought to reconnect the Church to its early roots, while opponents decried any attempt to “Romanize” it.

This collection opens a window onto that period of Anglo-Catholic revival and Ritualism, offering texts that focus on ceremonial aspects of Anglican Church life and history. Examine Anglicanism’s ties to Catholicism more closely and study Anglican liturgy with six volumes from the Library of Liturgiology & Ecclesiology series, including the Cambridge Camden Society’s Hierurgia Anglicana—which documents the practice of Catholic ceremony in the Church after the Reformation. You’ll also get collected essays on Church ceremony and ritual, an English translation of the Ordo Romanus Primus, and essays relating to ecclesiology.

In the Logos editions, these volumes are enhanced by amazing functionality. Scripture citations link directly to English translations, and important terms link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library. Perform powerful searches to find exactly what you’re looking for. Take the discussion with you using tablet and mobile apps. With Logos Bible Software, the most efficient and comprehensive research tools are in one place, so you get the most out of your study.

This volume presents an English version of the Latin Ordo Romanus Primus, which enables readers to visualize “a Roman church, and the ceremonies that were used at a public mass therein, as they were in the eighth century of the Christian era.” The text offers introduction to the Catholic Church, its ministers, and its ornaments, as well as solemn Mass and its ritual, complete with illustrations. The text is an ideal resource for the “intelligent Churchman who is interested in the rites and ceremonies of the Catholic Church, but has little leisure or opportunity of examining the numerous works that deal with the whole or parts of the matters that belong to the ceremonial of solemn Mass.”

E.G. Cuthbert F. Atchley was also the author of A History of the Use of Incense in Divine Worship, The Parish Clerk and His Right to Read the Liturgical Epistle, and The People’s Prayers: Being Some Considerations on the Use of the Litany in Public Worship.
