Liturgica Historica: Papers on the Liturgy and Religious Life of the Western Church (1918)

Liturgica Historica is a collection of papers on the liturgy and religious life of the Western Church, written by Edmund Bishop and originally published in 1918. The book covers a wide range of topics related to liturgy, including the origins and development of the liturgy, the role of music in worship, and the significance of liturgical vestments and symbols. Bishop draws on a wealth of historical and theological sources to provide a comprehensive overview of the liturgical practices of the Western Church, from the early Christian period to the modern era. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of liturgy, as well as for anyone interested in the history and evolution of Christian worship.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
