I’m in need of a good quality duo-French and Latin Missal, not unlike the Baronius Press or Angelus Press editions.

Any recommendations?
 
I have the 2010 edition of the missal malphono linked to. It’s not totally intuitive to use. There are multiple indices, most of which are not at the beginning or end of the missal. The page numbers initially go up to 1838 then start over at page 1 for the diocesan propers. :whacky: My spiritual director had to point out the examination of conscience and order of Confession to me; at that point I had owned the missal for three years and not been able to find that content myself. 😊

I’m told the 2014 edition (the one being sold at the link above) is better but have not had the opportunity to look at it myself, much less use it, so I can’t say what’s “better” about it.

I haven’t been able to find another French-Latin missal, and I live in France. Surely others must exist, but if so they haven’t been easy to locate so far.

While I’ve not seen any of the Barroux editions, I think I may know why the numbering sequence changes for the local propers. I happen to have a 1962 altar edition published by the old Maison Mame (it think it was in Tours) which has a supplement at the end entitled (IIRC) Missae Pro Gallia, and I seem to recall that the page numbering for that section began anew. So, if my memory is correct, it would seem that the good monks simply followed that schema in the hand missal.

My search (admittedly in “franglais” :o but I don’t have a French keyboard) didn’t show it, but I’d really be surprised if there weren’t others. If nothing else, the SSPX surely has something available.
