Il fanone del Romano Pontefice - insegna pontificale
unica che identifica la persona del papa.
"Grazie a Monsignor Marini per
questa reintroduzione coraggiosa,
che simboleggia lo scudo della
fede, le polemiche saranno molte, ma la liturgia deve riscoprire sempre
le sue antiche tradizioni."
-Riccardo
Ma quali polemiche? A parte Orbis Catholicus, il forum di Cattoliciromani e pochissimi altri, della reintroduzione del fanone non se n'รจ accorto nessuno. Men che meno se ne accorge il fedele medio.
ReplyDeleteThis photo is right on the cusp of the changes: Still wearing full pontificals, we see the maniple in the Missal, the Pope having just kissed the Gospel reading for the day, the Pontificale rests on the altar; Concelebrating priests are behind what seems to be an altar facing the congregation, bedecked with microphones... How disconnected it all seems now to me.
ReplyDeleteI think those are the 6 new bishops he consecrated at an outdoor mass in Bombay.
ReplyDeleteMicrophones had been present on altars long before Paul VI. I remember seeing pictures of microphoes on the altar with Pius XII as celebrant.
