The Long Forgotten "Missa normitiva"

[janeway529]

Just wanted to share a recent academic paper by Fr. Christiaan Kappes that sheds light on the liturgical reforms mandated by the Second Vatican Council. It’s an enlightening piece and worth the read. Fr. Kappes has been part of a special Vatican initiative to explore the bridging between the Catholics and the Orthodox. His other papers on the site are also great.

I still don’t see the whole paper, though.

I really really really want to see the ordo of the Missa normativa.

Looking at the table of contents, the dissertation is nearly 300 pages. Most of the relevant information though seems to be included. I guess if you really wanted, you could purchase a copy of the dissertation from Sant’Anselmo (The international Benedictine university that specializes in Liturgical Studies) in Rome.

In consolation, I found this piece which follows along similar lines as the dissertation.
(Fontes Liturgicae: THE MISSAL OF PAUL VI, 1970)
