+JMJ+ Timeline for The Ottaviani Intervention April 3, 1969 – the Novus Ordo Missæ and General Instruction promulgated by Pope Paul VI. April to May 1969 – A group of theologians, liturgists, and pastors met to prepare a theological study of the contents of the Novus Ordo Missæ and General Instruction resulting in A Short Critical Study of the New Order of Mass (known in English speaking countries as The Ottaviani Intervention). September 29, 1969 – the Critical Study along with a cover letter prepared by Cardinal Ottaviani were presented to Pope Paul VI. The cover letter was signed by Cardinal Ottaviani, former Prefect of the Holy Office, and Cardinal Antonio Bacci, a Latinist who served on the Vatican Congregations for Religious, Causes of Saints, and Catholic Education. October 22, 1969 – Pope Paul VI sent the Intervention to the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith for evaluation. November 12, 1969 – The Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith stated in a letter to the Vatican Secretary of State that “the work Short Critical Study…contains many statements which are superficial, exaggerated, inexact, impassioned and false.”…but we do not have access to the entire document. November 1969 – The Consilium met in Rome and noted that “Some difficulty emerged over certain points of the General Instructions of the Roman Missal, in particular over Article 7” March 1970 o New 15-paragraph Foreword in the Missal to demonstrate that the doctrine in the new Missal was identical to that in the old o Revised General Instruction (changes in italics) § 7 At Mass or the Lord’s Supper, the people of God are called together, with a priest presiding and acting in the person of Christ to celebrate the memorial of the Lord or Eucharistic sacrifice. For this reason Christ’s promise applies supremely to such a local gathering of the Church: “Where two or three come together in my Name, there am I in their midst” (Mt 18:20). For at the celebration of Mass, which perpetuates the sacrifice of the Cross, Christ is really present to the assembly gathered in His name; He is present in the person of the minister, in His own word, and indeed substantially and permanently under the Eucharistic elements. o No changes made to the text of the Missal itself .

Why the New Rite of Episcopal Consecration Is Valid Fr
ANGELUSTHE MAGAZINE REPRINT WHY THE NEW RITE OF EPISCOPAL CONSECRATION IS VALID Fr. Pierre-Marie, O.P. This article wishes to settle a debate that has been circulating in traditional Catholic circles. Some writers have examined the new rite of episcopal consecration and concluded that it must be invalid. Since this would cause manifest prob- lems if it were true and due to the heightened awareness of such a theory, The Angelus presents (for the first time in English) a study of this question concluding that it is valid. 2 This article was translated exclusively by Angelus Press from Sel de la Terre (No.54., Autumn 2005, pp.72-129). Fr. Pierre-Marie, O.P., is a member of the traditional Dominican monastery at Avrillé, France, several of whose members were ordained by Archbishop Lefebvre and which continues to receive its priestly ordinations from the bishops serving the Society of Saint Pius X which Archbishop Lefebvre founded. He is a regular contributor to their quarterly review, Sel de la Terre (Salt of the Earth). The English translations contained in the various tables were prepared with the assistance of H.E. Bishop Richard Williamson, Dr. Andrew Senior (professor at St. Mary’s College, St. Mary’s, Kansas), and Fr. Scott Gardner, SSPX. ollowing the Council, in 1968 a new rite for Orders or is merely “a sacramental,” an ecclesiastical the ordination of bishops was promulgated. ceremony wherein the powers of the episcopate, It was, in fact, the first sacrament to undergo its “bound” in the simple priest, are “freed” for the “aggiornamento,” or updating.

Blanchard, B.A., MSt. A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin May 2018 ABSTRACT EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY FORERUNNERS OF VATICAN II: EARLY MODERN CATHOLIC REFORM AND THE SYNOD OF PISTOIA Shaun L. Blanchard Marquette University, 2018 This dissertation sheds further light on the nature of church reform and the roots of the Second Vatican Council (1962–65) through a study of eighteenth-century Catholic reformers who anticipated Vatican II. The most striking of these examples is the Synod of Pistoia (1786), the high-water mark of “late Jansenism.” Most of the reforms of the Synod were harshly condemned by Pope Pius VI in the Bull Auctorem fidei (1794), and late Jansenism was totally discredited in the increasingly ultramontane nineteenth-century Catholic Church. Nevertheless, many of the reforms implicit or explicit in the Pistoian agenda – such as an exaltation of the role of bishops, an emphasis on infallibility as a gift to the entire church, religious liberty, a simpler and more comprehensible liturgy that incorporates the vernacular, and the encouragement of lay Bible reading and Christocentric devotions – were officially promulgated at Vatican II.

From the Second Vatican Council to the Synod
FROM THE SECOND VATICAN COUNCIL TO THE SYNOD We commend to our readers a paper given by Robert de Mattei as the Michael Davies Memorial Lecture in London on Friday, 10th July 2015, after requiem Mass at the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption and St Gregory, Warwick Street, entitled From the Second Vatican Council to the Synod : the Teaching of Michael Davies . The paper may be viewed on the Rorate Caeli blogsite—http://rorate-caeli.blogspot.com/2015/07/exclusive-for-rorate-michael- davies.html#more —or, for those who so desire, via a pdf file listed at the end of this commentary. Professor de Mattei holds the chair of Modern History and Christian History at Rome’s European University. His paper provides valuable background information in respect of both the Vatican Council of 1870 and the Second Vatican Council. Of particular interest are Professor de Mattei’s comments as to the rigorous control exercised by Pius IX over the first Council, his noting of Cardinal Manning’s assessment of the misreporting of its proceedings and the secular attempts to mock the arguments of participants and diminish the Council’s determinations. These attacks, foiled effectively at the first Council, were renewed to much greater effect at the second. He is critical of the railroading of Vatican II’s order and procedure by a coterie of bishops with a political rather than Catholic agenda, and of many of the determinations the Council issued. Perhaps his most acerbic comment, made in passing, has to do with Pope Benedict’s assertion that the texts of Vatican II had been distorted by an abusive post conciliar praxis.

“Benedictine Father Anscar Chupungco Writes About the Liturgy with the Authority of a World-Renowned Scholar and the Familiarity of a Dear Old Friend
“Benedictine Father Anscar Chupungco writes about the liturgy with the authority of a world-renowned scholar and the familiarity of a dear old friend. He treats both worship and Christian faith with an admirable and attractive sense of wonder. No one who cherishes the liturgical reform of the past fifty years can afford to overlook this delightful book. It’s an inspiring read.” —John F. Baldovin, SJ Professor of Historical & Liturgical Theology Boston College School of Theology and Ministry “The genuine voice of Anscar Chupungco sounds in these pages—with the characteristic notes of deep fidelity to Catholic tradition, utter clarity, gracious wisdom, Benedictine humility, and gentle hints of humor. That voice is a treasure. Chupungco articulates a vital memory of the very heart of the liturgical movement and many of its formative leaders, and one slowly comes to see that he himself has been one such leader. He speaks a clear and authoritative criticism of the recently too frequent cases of liturgical reaction on the part of some Roman Catholic leaders, yet he loses neither hope nor dignity in the process. Reading this book, you will discover again the basic principles of Catholic liturgical reform and its ecumenical resonances. You will also be encouraged to sentire esse ecclesiam, to recover the empowered sense of being the church: yourself with others as you gather around the presence of Christ now in word and sacrament.” —Gordon W. Lathrop Professor of Liturgy Emeritus Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia Anscar J. Chupungco, OSB What, Then, Is Liturgy? Musings and Memoir Foreword by Mark R.

Preserving Catholic Tradition
preserving Catholic Tradition Arms in time of war Dear Friends, I write to you at an extraordinary moment in the his- tory of the Church. There is currently in Rome a synod dedicated to the family in which a fierce battle rages for the soul of the Church. Certain elements have conspired to contradict the clear teaching of Christ on the indis- solubility of matrimony. At stake is the very survival of the Church’s credibility as teacher and arbiter of the Faith. How did we arrive here? The Church today finds her- self attacked by those who would overthrow Catholic teaching and force us to conform to their depraved de- sires and scandalous appetites. What we are witnessing today in Rome is but the direct and logical consequence of the error of Modernism, which St. Pius X denounced in his 1907 encyclical Pascendi Dominici Gregis. In analyzing the growth of Modernism, Pope Pius X identi- fied two primary weaknesses in laymen and clergy alike that make them easy prey to the schemes of Modernists: ignorance of authentic Catholic doctrine and pride Though Holy Mother Church calls all the faithful in regarding themselves as the sole possessors of to instruct the ignorant, not everyone has the privi- knowledge. lege of educating children directly. That is why I am asking each of you to participate in this critical proj- St. Pius X’s answer to the barrage of errors ect by making a gift today so that Angelus Press can spawned by Modernism was to urge Catholics to share this treasure with those hungry for the truths know their Faith.

Antonio Bacci Nacque a Giugnola, Un Piccolo Centro Dell'appennino Tosco-Romagnolo, Il 4 Settembre 1885
Antonio Bacci nacque a Giugnola, un piccolo centro dell'Appennino tosco-romagnolo, il 4 settembre 1885. Papa Giovanni XXIII lo elevò al rango di cardinale nel concistoro del 28 marzo 1960. Nel settembre del 1969 scrisse, insieme al cardinal Alfredo Ottaviani, una lettera - più nota come l'intervento Ottaviani - a Papa Paolo VI , nella quale i due cardinali esprimevano la propria opposizione alla riforma liturgica e, in specie, al nuovo messale romano o Novus Ordo Missae, allora in procinto di entrare in vigore. Il cardinale Bacci è stato un illustre latinista, autore fra l'altro del noto Lexicon vocabulorum quae difficilius latine redduntur (Roma : Studium, 1963) un vocabolario latino in cui erano presenti anche numerosi termini moderni atti a trattare nella lingua di Cicerone gli argomenti relativi alla scienza e alla tecnica del XX secolo.
