revised by decree of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council and published by authority of Pope John Paul II
Popularity 41
The reform of liturgical rites ordered by the Second Vatican Council necessitated a revision of the *Caeremoniale Episcoporum*, published in 1886. The objective of this ceremonial is to provide a liturgy for bishops that will stand as a model for all other celebrations. The eight divisions of the book cover everything from the Mass through liturgical celebrations in connection with the government of a diocese. This is a valued reference for bishops, masters of ceremonies, diocesan liturgical offices, seminary libraries, and others.
