Miscellaneous Section (Campion Missal)

St. Edmund Campion Missal and Hymnal · July 1, 2013

OU HAVE ARRIVED at the “miscellaneous” section of the Campion Missal Website. Below, you will find information relating to the First Edition as well as some random facts. This information will probably not be useful to the general public now that the Second Edition has arrived.

IF YOU HAVE ARRIVED HERE BY MISTAKE, please click on the top bar. This will take you to the website for the current (correct) edition.

The First Edition contained letters by James Ridley.

Miscellaneous Items

1. The beautiful, digitally-enhanced Line Art in the Campion Missal is being uploaded and given away for free! Here is an example. To download all 300+ pieces of artwork, visit: Views from the Choir Loft [url].

2. It was difficult to select the devotional prayers due to the great number available, and we hope the prayers we included by St. Ambrose, St. Augustine, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Bonaventure, St. Ignatius Loyola, and Servant of God Fulton Sheen will suffice.

3. The shipping cost for International books is higher than we would like. Click here to learn more.

4. In the book’s Preface, some historical information regarding vernacular hymns at Low Mass was shared. Some misunderstood, concluding that this indicated an “endorsement” of a certain historical practice. That notion is not accurate. By way of anology, learning about the life of General Robert E. Lee would not constitute an “endorsement” of the Confederacy.

5. We use the elegant, literal translations of Fr. Lasance — completely re-typeset, not scanned!

6. The back cover biography of St. Edmund Campion was composed by Dr. Gerard Kilroy, the world’s leading expert on the life and works of St. Edmund Campion.

7. At a later date, we plan on releasing special “St. Edmund Campion” booklets to supplement the Missal. One will be for Stations of the Cross, another for Traditional Baptisms. Information will be forthcoming.

8. One of the clerics who appears in the Mass pictures is a relative of St. Antoine Daniel [url], a special patron of CCW’s work with the Gregorian Kyriale.

Quick Thoughts

    Hymn by Cardinal Newman
    During the season of Septuagesima, we will be using this hymn by Cardinal Newman, which employs both Latin and English. (Readers probably know that Cardinal Newman was one of the world's experts when it comes to Lingua Latina.) The final verse contains a beautiful soprano descant. Father Louis Bouyer—famous theologian, close friend of Pope Paul VI, and architect of post-conciliar reforms—wrote thus vis-à-vis the elimination of Septuagesima: “I prefer to say nothing, or very little, about the new calendar, the handiwork of a trio of maniacs who suppressed (with no good reason) Septuagesima and the Octave of Pentecost and who scattered three quarters of the Saints higgledy-piddledy, all based on notions of their own devising!”
    —Jeff Ostrowski
    Introit • Candlemas (2 February)
    “Candlemas” • Our choir sang on February 2nd, and here's a live recording of the beautiful INTROIT: Suscépimus Deus. We had very little time to rehearse, but I think it has some very nice moments. I promise that by the 8th Sunday after Pentecost it will be perfect! (That Introit is repeated on the 8th Sunday after Pentecost.) We still need to improve, but we're definitely on the right track!
    —Jeff Ostrowski
    Simplified Antiphons • “Candlemas”
    Anyone who desires simplified antiphons (“psalm tone versions”) for 2 February, the Feast of the Purification—which is also known as “Candlemas” or the Feast of the Presentation—may freely download them. The texts of the antiphons are quite beautiful. From “Lumen Ad Revelatiónem Géntium” you can hear a live excerpt (Mp3). I'm not a fan of chant in octaves, but we had such limited time to rehearse, it seemed the best choice. After all, everyone should have an opportunity to learn “Lumen Ad Revelatiónem Géntium,” which summarizes Candlemas.
    —Jeff Ostrowski

Random Quote

“By a decree of the synod of the diocese of Exeter in 1284, no one should claim any seat in a church; but whoever first entered a church for the purpose of devotion, might choose at his pleasure a place for praying.”

— A work by Fr. Husenbeth (d. 1872)
