Liturgical Translation: A Question of Truth

I must have been asleep for a couple of months for I have only recently discovered that Father (Monsignor) Peter J. Elliot, of the Archdiocese of Melbourne, Australia, was appointed Bishop on April 30 and consecrated on June 15. What wonderful news!

Some of you may have his excellent books on the liturgy published by Ignatius Press: Ceremonies of the Modern Roman Rite, a manual on the proper celebration of the Mass;
Ceremonies of the Liturgical Year, on liturgical celebrations for the Feasts and Seasons throughout the year; and
Liturgical Question Box, which addresses liturgical questions submitted to him as a columnist.

Adoremus provides us with an address given by Msgr. Elliot at the international conference, Sacrificium laudis: The Medina Years (1996-2002), sponsored by the Research Institute for Catholic Liturgy in October 2005.

This is a MUST READ article, particularly for those who love the Truth and have yearned for the restoration of truly sacred texts in the Liturgy.
