-The Book of Common Prayer

The Book of Common Prayer (1549) by Thomas Cranmer is a collection of prayer books that was the first to include the complete liturgies for daily and Sunday services used in all churches that follow the Anglican tradition. This is the original edition of the book, which was published in 1549. In it, readers can find the Morning Prayer, the Evening Prayer, the Litany, and Holy Communion as well as the occasional services in full: the orders for Baptism, Confirmation, Marriage, "prayers said for the sick," and a funeral service.

À propos de l?auteur: THOMAS CRANMER (1489-1556) was Archbishop of Canterbury during the reigns of Henry VIII, Edward VI and, briefly, Mary I. As a leader of the English Reformation, he advanced the separation of the Church of England from the Roman Catholic Church. Like the political leader Thomas Cromwell, he supported the principle of royal supremacy, in which the king was considered sovereign over the church within his nation.
