"This book takes seriously the need for a two-fold shift in methodology within the
field of liturgical studies and serves as a model for future historical work. The
first shift necessary in liturgical studies is a shift to sources other than the
central liturgical texts, i.e. the Missal, breviary, lectionary, and books of rites.
The second shift necessary in the field is a greater appreciation of the diversity
of liturgical celebrations within the Church. In order to engage in such a study,
this book analyzes a non-traditional liturgical source within a little-studied liturgical
tradition. The source that provides the basis for this study is the Homiliae Toletanae
(British Library, Add. 30853), a homiliary for Mass found in the Hispano-Mozarabic
Rite. The Homiliae Toletanae dates to circa the seventh/eighth centuries and survives
in one tenth/eleventh-century manuscript. It contains homilies for every major temporal
and sanctoral feast in the calendar of Toledo. The Homiliae Toletanae is a valuable
manuscript for reconstructing and understanding the liturgical practices of seventh/eighth-century
Toledo. This study looks only at the Lenten homilies found within the Homiliae Toletanae
in order to supplement what is already known about the Lenten practices of late
Visigothic and early Mozarabic Spain. In reconstructing the practices of Lent in seventh/eighth-century
Spain. This study explores the two major themes of Lent, penance and initiation, and
their relationship to one another. It reflects on what some scholars consider a crisis
in the thematic understanding of Lent in the seventh/eighth centuries. Coupled with
this crisis is a shift from adult initiation to infant initiation in this period.
This study argues that this crisis of meaning and the subsequent shift to a more
penitential understanding of Lent was a direct result of the decline in adult initiation
in this period. The dominant role that fasting and almsgiving played in the Lenten
life of late Visigothic and early Mozarabic Spain is also analyzed. In order to
conduct this study, this volume utilizes textual criticism as well as the comparative
method in liturgical studies. The comparative method is based on the work of Anton
Baumstark, the Mateos School, and Paul Bradshaw. This method is used to reconstruct
liturgical practices based on the manuscript evidence. The first part of this book
contextualizes the Homiliae Toletanae within the larger Hispano-Mozarabic and Christian
tradition, and discusses its origin, dating, composition, and general content. The
second part of this book is an in-depth look at the twenty-three homilies of Lent
found within the Homiliae Toletanae. The goal of this volume is to show that liturgical
traditions, like the Hispano-Mozarabic Rite, have a profound creativity and uniqueness.
Their patrimony is rich, and they contain many liturgical insights, both historically
and pastorally."
