Résumé
--
The book we call the Pontificale contains all the Episcopal rites it is the bishop's book. Apart from the celebrations usually reserved for men of the Church, it defines all the rites that used to bring crowds of lay people to the cathedrals on the feast days of the year, throughout the Middle Ages and long after. The 'Pontifical de la curie romaine', produced in the 13th century, represents a vital moment in the standardisation the popes were seeking, at the conclusion of a long period of work that spans the 8th to the 12th century. Moreover, it directly inspired another Pontificale: that made by the Bishop Guillaume Durand de Mende, who died in 1296, having accomplished the diffusion of the Roman liturgy throughout all the Latin Church. So it marks an essential stage, not only in the history of catholic liturgy, but also that of Christianity in the West. Because it reveals the heart of the Christian mysteries, those familiar with historical anthropology will discover in this book the full meaning of each of the most fundamental rites of Christianity, and understand how they appeared to the participants of yore.
