The advent of the internet has made something quite difficult about a hundred years ago; show information about different rites and uses of the Western Church.

Now, there are many websites dedicated to showing the Sarum Use, the Mozarabic Rite, the Ambrosian Rite which got me thinking of creating a site (or at least a blog) dedicated to showing the texts of the different Rites of the Church, both the well-known and the obscure, in Latin and in English.

What do you think?

I was once searching for the text of the Carmelite Rite but there are none. I finally found one here:

allmercifulsavior.com/Liturgy/Liturgics.html

But only has the text and no rubrics. (That site is one inspiration, the other is the New Liturgical Movement)

PS Let the mods move this if it belongs somewhere.
 
Either a site or a blog would be a public service. Go for it!

Well I’ll need a partner. 🙂

Here are basically the main priority:

Carmelite Rite
Carthusian Rite
Bragan Rite
Lyons Rite
Hereford Use
York Use

The internet’s a great place to find the texts. Then we’ll translate it to English alongside with the Latin.

As for the Carthusian, Carmelite, Bragan and Lyons, the Latintexts are available in the above site but no rubrics so we’ll also need the help of someone who has complete texts of it.

To summarize:
  1. A partner who can co-translate the texts
  2. COMPLETE Liturgical texts of Rites, rubrics and all (Usually available by scouring the internet)
  3. In case that no. 2 is impossible, texts of various Rites in print or someone who owns them who will be kind enough to cooperate with us
 
Be advised: the Mozarabic Rite is undergoing a revision by their bishop, as well as a translation to vernacular spanish (if I unsterstood the site correctly).

I think it a good idea, though.

I’m unable, however, to help with what you need.
 
There is a text of the revised Mozarabic Rite available in Latin and Spanish here:

mercaba.org/LITURGIA/Mozarabe/cartel_rito_hispanomozarabe.htm

As far as I know, no translation into English exists of it yet. So an addition to the Priority list:

Mozarabic Rite, both the pre-revision and post-revision version

One thing I noticed about the revised version is the singing of the Trisagion after the Gloria during Feasts (If I read the text correctly). Fascinating.

Plus, the Creed is different from that of the Roman (at least in the pre-revision):
:

-‘Credimus’ instead of ‘Credo’
-‘Et Filio’ not ‘Filioque’
-‘Natum, non factum’ not ‘Genitum non factum’.
-the word ‘conditorem’ after ‘invisibilium’
-‘Deum ex Deo’ etc. not ‘Deum de Deo’ etc.
-‘Omousion Patri, hoc est eiusdem cum Patrae substantiae’ not ‘Consubstantialem Patri’

This is only a few of the differences.

So, anyone willing to extend a hand to this project?
 
So to start, the Mozarabic version of the Creed (English):

We Believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of Heaven and Earth, Maker of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all worlds.
God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God; Born, not made, ‘Omousion’ to the Father, that is of the same substance as the Father.
Through whom all things which are on Heaven and which are on Earth are made.
Who for us men and our salvation came down from Heaven; and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man.
Who suffered under Pontius Pilate, was buried, rose again on the third day, ascended to Heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. Whence He will come to judge the living and the dead, and whose Kingdom will have no end.
 
And in the Holy Spirit, Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. Who with the Father and the Son to be worshipped and conglorified; who spoke by the Prophets.

And one Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. We confess one Baptism for the remission of sins. We await for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
