Yikes. 18 months? Did you add an extra digit by mistake? 😦
 
For REAL?! I’ve heard rumors they were working on it, but I’ve just been hoping it would be released in my lifetime.
 
Are we speaking of the Roman Breviary, which is going to have the English translation as well or something else?

This one?

No, we are talking about the Ordinary Form breviary, currently in use by most priests, religious and lay people today.
 
Ok am I missing something? 18 months sound quite quick to me.
 
Baronius Press is releasing a new breviary in the next few weeks. It is the a bilingual (Latin-English) version of the Roman Breviary of 1961.
 
Gonna have to cough up another $150 (more?:(:confused:) for the 4 volume set. 😦

Oh well, it’s money well spent, and I’ll be able to use the old set for kindling…

Everything I’ve ever seen on the possibility of a new breviary - and I’m not at all sure that I believe the 18 month claim - is that, precisely due to the cost, the current 1975 version would be “grandfathered” in, and that no one would “have” to purchase a new revision unless they wanted to.
 
They first have to work on the revised translations for the Marriage Rite, Funeral Rites, RCIA, Confirmation. The question regarding the LOTH came up at one of the BCDW Missal meetings and at the FDLC meeting last October and we were told they haven’t even started working on it and not to expect it for another 8 years at least.
