The easiest way to get an explanation ...Dear Mark,<br /><br />The easiest way to get an explanation of the pre-1961 calendar is to consult Bonniwell's History of the Dominican Rite. The excessive complications of the 1920-1961 calendar were the result of importing distinctions from the Roman Rite. In the middle ages there were only Full duplex, Duplex, Semiduplex, and Simplex feasts. The 1961 calendar basically returned to this: full duplex = I Class, duplex and semiduplex = II class, and simplex = III class.Fr.

Thank you for an invaluable resource.
Wo...Father:<br /><br />Thank you for an invaluable resource.<br /><br />Would you be able to point me in the direction of anything which explains the calendar in use slightly before this? That is, the 1956 one (e.g. in Fr. Michael Browne's excellent Diurnale), where there are umpteen species of Duplex... I am finding it rather confusing!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17605146531776846589noreply@blogger.com
