Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating and insightful exploration of the history of the Church of England's devotional system, tracing its origins and evolution from the earliest days of Christianity in Britain to the development of the Book of Common Prayer. The author delves into the ancient Gallic-Roman Liturgy, which likely influenced the English forms of worship, and meticulously examines the influence of St. Augustine's mission to England in the sixth century. He highlights the crucial role of the Salisbury Use, a liturgical system developed in the eleventh century, which became the principal devotional rule of the Church of England for centuries. Through a detailed exploration of the transition from Latin services to vernacular worship, the author illuminates the gradual shift towards the creation of a more accessible and understandable form of prayer for the common people. He discusses the role of English Prymers and the development of translations of key liturgical texts, such as the Lord's Prayer and the Creed, in facilitating this shift. The book provides a comprehensive historical context for understanding the origins and significance of the Book of Common Prayer, shedding light on the complex interplay of religious, political, and social factors that shaped its development and ultimately gave rise to the unique devotional system of the Church of England.
