Pope Benedict XIV (1675–1758) offers a convincing defence for the use of Latin as the normative liturgical language in the Mass of the Roman Catholic Church. The Holy Father seeks to bring clarity to this most important topic by relying on tradition and Church history. Pope Benedict XIV one of the most prolific authors of the Roman pontiffs. He was an accomplished canonist and scholar. This book includes the Essay on the use of Latin in the Mass by Hierotheus Confluentinus, the provincial of the German Capuchins (1682–1766). The use of Latin in the Liturgy has always been under attack through the ages commencing from the Protestant schism. This book engages the readers to defend their sacred patrimony in the use of Latin in the Liturgy.
