"Holy Week was wrecked during the Pontificate of Pius XII as the Roman Calendar was wrecked during Pius X's."

Now that must be one of the most succinct and apposite summaries of twentieth century liturgical reform ever written. I would be inclined to substitute Breviary for Calendar mind or just add it.

From Ttony in transit.

Bear in mind that my focus is the experience of Church for the Catholic in the pew. Yours (if I may presume)is the structure of the Liturgy. But underlying what we both care about is, I think, Lex orandi Lex credendi.

Of course, I see that and agree with you - the greatest impact following 1911-13 would have been the Calendar to the person in the pew.

WRT Lex orandi, lex credendi - absolutely, its reversal was a disaster.

Apologies for posting my comments on the wrong thread!
