Description: Mr. Diamond's excellent book for Learning the Latin of the Church was developed primarily from a correspondence course he taught to more than 400 individuals in the United States and 15 foreign countries. The diversity of this group is astounding- "...used in over 50 high schools ...Carmelite Nuns, seminarians, Marist Brothers, doctors, housewives, and other lay people...". This book was designed to be used by the average person, and the vocabulary is taken directly from the liturgy, not from "Caesar or Cicero" as the forward to the book so proudly states. Includes a small glossary. Fully indexed. 346 pages. 6" x 9" softcover. PRINTED ON DEMAND. SHIPS IN @1 WEEK From the back cover.... In the words of Wilfrid Diamond: “... a knowledge of Liturgical Latin is a key to the ever developing mind of the Church as expressed in her own individual language.” In my opinion, this is just as true today as in 1941 when Mr. Diamond penned these words. Knowledge and comprehension of Latin can only deepen your bond of unity with the Catholic Church in whatever liturgical action that you partake in. Fr. Barrett quotes Fr. Ronald Knox in the forward concerning Church Latin, “it was not meant to mystify; it was meant to express, not to conceal, the emotions and aspirations of the universal Church.” The demand for materials that better teach and explain the official language of the Catholic Church will continue to increase as more and more people discover the reverence and beauty of the Traditional Latin Mass. Just as Mr. Diamond saw the need to compile his oral lessons into a complete book, I have seen the need to return his wonderful work to the printed page. May all who seek to plumb the depths of Latin, fulfill it with this classic textbook. Priests, religious, and laity will surely find Mr. Diamond’s format and style appealing as they learn the Latin of the Mass and Divine Office prayers in this comprehensive edition. - The Publisher, 2021
