Item description from seller

Kb34 .xxviii, 593 pp. Index manuscripts, index saints, general index. Octavo. Blue dust jacket with parchment-color medieval manuscript. DJ is clean and nice, minimal shelfwear. Book covers are clean, interior has gift inscription on title page from "Dick" the author to "Siegfried" Wenzel, the medievalist. Dr. Wenzel's neat light pencil notes on inside back cover, a few light pencil marginalia here and there. Otherwise book is clean and unmarked but there is a storage wave to the pages. "The first comprehensive historical treatment of the latin liturgy in medieval England. Pfaff constructs a history of the worship carried out in churches -- cathedral, monastic, or parish -- primarily throug the surviving manuscripts of service books and sets this within the context of the wider political, ecclesiastical and cultural history of the period. The main focus is on the mass and daily office, treated both chronologically and by type, the liturgies of each religious order and each secular "use" being studied individually." A still attractive and usable copy, with nice provenance. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 593 pages; Signed by Author.…
