Excuse my ignorance but could you date that form of the mass? I am a Roman Catholic who grew up with the Latin Mass pre VCII. I am also familiar with the Pre-Sanctified Liturgy celebrated in the Maronite Catholic Church, which is an adaption of the ancient Anaphora of Sharrar and is celebrated only on Good Friday. It is the only occasion where communion is restricted to the priest.
I cannot date the Latin term (which I misspelled — it is “usus antiqior”) and literally means “ancient usage”. I probably should have not used the term and you are obviously more educated in the forms before Vatican II. When I read it and use it, I mean in the traditional form—ie the Tridentine.
as in this quote:
“This Saturday, August 22nd, you may wish tune in to EWTN to witness a Solemn Mass in the usus antiquior from the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Hanceville, Alabama.”
If I am in error, please accept apologies. I can always benefit from being educated—reason I love all things Catholic.
