Formulas for the Universal Prayer in the Typical Editions of the Post-Conciliar Missal
Piotr Kulbacki
Abstract
The study presents the results of research on changes in the formulas for the universal prayer in the subsequent typical editions of the Missal. The universal prayer is the climax of the liturgy in which the universal priesthood of the faithful is fulfilled. The Council postulated its restoration according to the ancient practice. Concilium ad Exsequendam Constitutionem de Sacra Liturgia published (before the first typical edition of the Missal) a basic document De oratione communi seu fidelium. The formulas for the universal prayer were given in it. They form the basis on which the national bishops’ conferences should publish their own formulas in the national language. Out of 54 models of the universal prayer given in De oratione, 11 were added in an appendix to the post-conciliar Missal. This confirms the concept that they are only examples, not a set for use in the liturgy.
