Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A New History of the Book of Common Prayer: With a Rationale of Its Offices Nearly half a century has passed since the first edition of Mr. Procter´s History of the Book of Common Prayer was published: it has been a period full of an enthusiasm for liturgical studies which is almost, if not quite, without parallel. While these facts speak eloquently of the solidity and value of Mr. Procter´s work, they also explain amply the reasons why it was necessary that it should undergo considerable change. In fact, while the general outline and plan has been retained, the greater part has been rewritten. In the first section of the book the history of the Edwardine Prayer Books has especially needed alteration, in view of much that has been discovered and printed since Mr. Procter wrote: the later history has been less altered. In the case of the Elizabethan Prayer Book the facts are still so scantily known, and in the later times they were already so fully known, that there has been little development of knowledge; while the relation of the controversies of the eighteenth century to the Prayer Book has not yet been properly investigated at all; it is a field which certainly proved barren of results, and it would probably prove barren of interest also.
