I’m back with a new research project!
It's a study of vernacular congregational participation at Mass between 1861 and 1961.
Everything you think you know about liturgy before the Second Vatican Council is probably wrong 🧵⤵️

Give me a second, and I'll share a thread I just posted on the other place, introducing some new research
