The Use of Hereford

Více o knize

Focusing on a unique liturgical tradition, this book explores the Use of Hereford, a localized variation of the Roman rite practiced in medieval England. It highlights how this diocesan liturgy retained its distinctiveness, primarily within its own diocese, in contrast to the more widespread Use of Sarum. The narrative delves into the significance of the Use of Hereford before it was abolished and replaced by the Book of Common Prayer in 1549, providing insights into its historical and cultural context during the Reformation.
