Excerpt from Three Coronation Orders When the Henry Bradshaw Society was founded in 1890, it was thought that the coronation and consecration of our English sovereigns, an act so important, as Abbe Duchesne points out, from the civil, as well as from the religious, point of view, might well be illustrated by the new Society; and a series of the English Coronation Orders was spoken of. Beyond a haphazard assignation of services to individual sovereigns, very little seemed to have been done in the way of classification, or of investigation into the liturgical principles on which these services are constructed. An elementary division of these orders may be made something in the following manner. First the English Coronation Orders may be divided into two classes, those in English and those in Latin, and these correspond with prae-Reformation and post-Reformation times. Then the Latin or prae-Reformation orders may be divided into four groups or recensions; the former or post-Reformation into three groups or recensions. Of the four Latin recensions, the first is that in Egbert's Pontifical, which is already easily accessible: not only in the modern edition of the Pontifical itself, but in Martene, who has edited the order in his great collection.

Excerpt from Coronation Rites While it is hoped that this book may prove of service to those who wish to study the history and structure of the Coronation Rite, it will be evident that a subject so large can only be treated, in the space at my disposal, in outline. Those who wish for more detailed information must be referred to the texts themselves. May I also here point out that since the Rite was probably never used twice in identically the same form in any country, and since it was thus in a continually fluid state, the 'Recensions' into which the rites of the different countries are here and generally divided, are to a certain extent arbitrary, and must be taken as marking periods at which the rites reached certain stages of developement? Both Dr Swete and Dr Srawley have by their criticisms added considerably to the accuracy of the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
