Joseph Kretschmer
A rebuke to the liturgical innovators

This copy was given to a friend who is a convert and choir director in the novus ordo. There are several other books by Angelus Press on the liturgical revolution but this comes from a Pope highly respected for his scholarship. The innovators were active for a long time before Vatican II with a demonstration of the novus ordo taking place in 1948. This encyclical condemns: the vernacular, the tabernacle taken from the altar, the altar in the form of a table, and antiquarianism, or the attempt to return the liturgy to its most ancient form (a reason heard again and again after Vatican II.). This is a refutation of the novelties based upon the authority of Pope Pius XII and it holds much weight for all who are honest.
