presents
Authentic Liturgy:
Translation and Interpretation of Liturgical Texts
Mundelein, Illinois - October 27-29, 2004
The
editio typica tertia of the Missale Romanum, revised at the
request of Pope John Paul II for the celebration of the new millennium,
introduces the concluding chapter of the liturgical reform, begun a century
ago by Saint Pius X. This new edition of the Missal, currently being
translated for English speaking congregations, promises to generate both
interest and a wide variety of reactions. In preparation for the publication
of the English-language edition of the Roman Missal, The Liturgical
Institute presents a conference which considers translation and
interpretation of liturgical texts."the greatest prudence and attention...in the preparation of liturgical books marked by sound doctrine, which are exact in wording, free from all ideological influence, and otherwise endowed with those qualities by which the sacred mysteries of salvation and the indefectible faith of the Church are efficaciously transmitted by means of human language to prayer, and worthy worship is offered to God the Most High." (Liturgiam Authenticam, 3).
