Is there a place where I can find the form of the Mass before the Tridentine Mass, so some time in the early 1500s or before (I think)?
There have been many rites which were used, as far as I know, up until Trent, there was not one standard liturgy for the Roman church.Is there a place where I can find the form of the Mass before the Tridentine Mass, so some time in the early 1500s or before (I think)?
Interesting chart!
It will take much research. In general there are:Is there a place where I can find the form of the Mass before the Tridentine Mass, so some time in the early 1500s or before (I think)?
Small correction … There was not one star are liturgy for the Latin Church, not the Roman Church. The Roman Church has ALWAYS used the Roman Rite. However, the Latin Church used several different Latin Rites (which the Roman Rite is part of).There have been many rites which were used, as far as I know, up until Trent, there was not one standard liturgy for the Roman church.
The Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostum, still in use in many of our Eastern Churches, dates back to the 4th or 5th century.Is there a place where I can find the form of the Mass before the Tridentine Mass, so some time in the early 1500s or before (I think)?

Pax et Bonum! Being I have strong ties to the Franciscans, I am very interested to learn this; never came up before in any conversation. Tks for the info…I will see about getting a pre-Trent Franciscan Missal. angeltime[BIBLEDRB][/BIBLEDRB]In the west- Different regions and religious orders had their own form of Latin liturgy, all related and with similarities.
It is important to understand that Trent did not create a new liturgy but only made the Roman Use (the liturgy of Rome Italy) a Universal liturgy for the western Church (how it ended up supplanting other usages is a different subject, that wasn’t the intent). The pre-Trent Roman Mass is essentially identical to the Mass of Trent. The Franciscans adopted the Roman Liturgy as their form, so consulting the pre-Trent Franciscan Missals is probably the most readily available source of pre-Trent Roman Mass (if that’s what you’re wondering about).
