The definitive guide to the development of early Roman liturgy by
one of the twentieth century's great liturgical scholars. The
liturgy which developed at Rome during the early centuries of the
Christian era was to establish the pattern for religious observance
in the Latin West from the sixth century to the twentieth. Yet, for
a variety of reasons, the origins and early development of this
liturgy are far from clear. Evidence must be teased out of the
various incidental references to be found in the writings of the
early Church Fathers; Hippolytus, Cyprian, Ambrose, Augustineand
ultimately Gregory the Great. In this book the late G.G. Willis
draws on a lifetime's intimate knowledge of the liturgical evidence
for early Roman practice in order to present a refreshingly clear
guide to the early Roman liturgy - a subject for which there exists
no accessible introduction in English. He provides a new synthesis
of the most significant developments in the form of the Roman mass,
calendar, episcopal services, rites of baptism andordination up to
the time of Gregory the Great (590-604).
