I am currently looking for purchase a Missal that is the regular Ordinary Form Mass (Novus Ordo), only in Latin, or Latin on one page, English on the other. Prayers and Readings too would be wonderful.

I’d also like to find the modern Breviary, the one used currently, only in Latin. Is there a publisher who has done this? I am not looking for a pre-Vatican Council II one, for I have that .

I’ve tried to look online, but am not finding anything. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong areas or not typing in the correct words for the seach engine. Can anyone help me in finding these two things? Thank you.

For a missal with Latin/English I use the Daily Roman Missal

I have a link for the Office in Latin/English but I don’t know if it’s what you want. divinumofficium.com/cgi-bin/horas/officium.pl
 
Vatican Publishing house has the Breviary (and altar missal) for the OF in Latin. If you send me a private email, I’ll give you the name of a new/used bookseller who has a used copy of the Breviary (it will set you back about 200-300 dollars US)
 
I don’t know if there are any personal missals, such as you are seem to be seeking, just in Latin. Remember that the official Mass texts are now distributed in 2 volumes: the Sacramenary (called Missal) and Lectionary.

For the Office, you can order Liturgia Horarium, which typical text is in Latin.

For the Missal- there is an excellent personal missal for the OF form mass in Latin & English. The Daily Roman missal edited by James Socias. It is available from many different vendors and bookstores- you can even get if from Barnes & Noble and most Catholic bookstores and parish bookstores I have been to carry it. It has all of the readings for all seasons feasts and it has a wonderful section of prayers also in Latin & English. The type is great and one the left it has the OF mass in Latin and on the right side English.

If you go to Amazon, search for Daily Roman Missal Socias and it will pop up. You can also get it from Midwest Theological Forum’s website.

It comes in hard cover, leatherette and leather at different pricepoints (the hard cover is least expensive). I also found it on several Catholic web site such as Leaflet Missal Co. (I have ordered other items from them before and they are good) www.leafletonline.com.

You may want to wait a bit because with the new English translation of the mass coming there should be a new version, perhaps by the end of this year. Of course, if you don’t really need the English portion much, no worries.

Re: the breviary, Pax Books carries the all latin version of the LOTH at www.paxbooks.com. Search Liturgia Horarim (I got the information on the breviary from New Liturgical Movement’s website).

Besides Paxbooks, Newman House Press publishes a shorter edition of the modern breviary in Latin, with an unofficial English translation of the facing pages:

Lauds and Vespers, Latin-English Per Annum
This Latin/English, 1,600-page prayer book contains the texts from the Liturgy of the
Hours for Lauds (Morning Prayer) and Vespers (Evening Prayer) for the entire liturgical year. The Latin text is the official version of Lauds and Vespers, intended and approved for liturgical use. This unofficial English text is a new, faithful translation of the prayers and antiphons by the priests and seminarians of Newman House. This new edition will enable one to pray in the language of the Roman Church, and to do so with greater understanding

The purpose of this volume is to promote the use of Latin in the Liturgy of the
Hours. It contains the entire liturgical year, including the texts for the seasons of Advent, Christmas, Lent, and Easter, a well as a section on “How to Pray Lauds and Vespers.” The work is published in two colors, and there are colorful ribbons to help mark one’s place.
