Liber Precum Publicarum Ecclesiae Anglicanae
is a Latin translation of the Book of Common Prayer of the Anglican Church. Translated by G. Bright and P.G. Medd, this edition makes the foundational text of Anglican liturgy accessible to a wider audience within the scholarly and religious community familiar with Latin. The Book of Common Prayer is a cornerstone of Anglican worship, providing the order of services, prayers, and readings used in the Church of England and its global communion.
This Latin edition offers insights into the theological and liturgical nuances of the original English text, reflecting the translators' efforts to preserve the spirit and meaning of the prayer book within the framework of classical Latin. It serves as a valuable resource for theologians, historians, and linguists interested in the transmission of religious ideas and the adaptation of liturgical practices across linguistic and cultural boundaries. This volume remains an important historical document, illustrating the enduring influence of the Book of Common Prayer and the intellectual engagement with its contents in the 19th century.
