The Raccolta - Or Collection of Indulgenced Prayers & Good Works (Paperback)

This is the 1910 edition of the Raccolta. Ambrose St John was a convert to Catholicism at the same time as John Henry Cardinal Newman and was ordained subdeacon along side Newman. The translation of the Raccolta by Father St John was one of the first books of popular devotion issued by the Fathers of the Birmingham Oratory, and it supplied them with the congregational prayers, still in use in their church, for the Stations of the Cross, for the 1110nth of May, the Triduo and Novenas in preparation for the Feasts of our Lady, and similar devotions. The fifth edition of the book, brought out after Father St John's death, was printed in Birmingham by the direction and under the supervision of Cardinal Newman himself. Concurrently with the issue of the English Raccolta Father St John translated and published a work on Indulgences by the Abbate Dominico Sarra, Recorder of the Sacred Congregation of Indulgences and Holy Relics, a handy popular treatise on the doctrine and use of Indulgences published by authority at Rome. This Edition has been conformed to the latest Roman Raccolta, approved July 23, 1898, and the Supplement, approved July 31, 1902; and contains also the Indulgences and decisions since recorded in the Acta Sanctae Sedis up to the present time. This edition contains the original or 'long' Saint Michael's prayer composed by Pope Leo XIII after his vision. This prayer was shortened in later editions of the Raccolta.
