Monastic Diurnal

[bjcsfo]

I purchased the Diurnal a couple of months ago to use until Baronius Press came out with their new edition of the 1962 Roman Breviary. Now that I have gotten used to it and learned how to use it I am not sure if I am going to go with the Baronius edition. Any one else out there with the same feelings as me?

Yes.

I decided to go with:

Monastic Diurnal from St. Michael’s Abbey Press
&
Monastic Breviary Matins from Lancelot Andrews Press

I have other Baronius titles and will check out their breviary if/when it becomes available.

The farnboroughabbey.org/press/dirunal.php monastic diurnal is good.

Unfortunately they sold all the printed copies and at least for now do not intend reprint.

The Baronius Breviary will be expensive if they want at least recover their cost.

The resolution would be the lulu Breviary stores.lulu.com/breviary

Somehow the Archbishop of Indianapolis should be convinced that there is demand for inexpensive traditional Breviary, so he should approve this ready to print and beutiful version. (David Siefker asked some $12 for it through the lulu, before he get convinced that approval is necessary)

The Monastic diurnal and the 1962 Roman Breviary are completely different psalm schemas. The former is the schema set out 1500 years ago by St. Benedict in his famous rule, the latter dates back to the 1910 revision of the Divine Office by Pius X.
