Monastic Diurnal vs. Full Divine Office

[Mark1970]

Neil,

Good mention. I have the Anglican Breviary too; in fact, it was what first started me out saying the Breviary!

My only concern with it is that it follows the 1911 rubrics and is such more complicated. Mind you, sometimes 1911 in English is easier to understand than 1962 in Latin (my Latin is not very good).

Don’t know if this would be any help to you, but Saint Lawrence Press publishes, every year, a booklet called “Ordo Recitandi”. It’s in Latin, which may be a down side if you’re Latin isn’t very good, but it’s basically an Ordo following the calendar as it was in early-to-mid 20th century, and may help with the rubrics of the Anglican Beviary you’re using. They have a website which, among other things, has one or two files comparing the Office as it was at various stages from 1911 through to the present LOTH.
