Anselmo in Rome and an active participant of the conciliar and post-conciliar liturgical reforms. LOP consists of 591 psalm-prayers accompanied by critical apparatus and a detailed introduction to their history and doctrine. J. Pinell claims that these orationes super psalmos were composed by St. Leander (approx. 534-600/601), the bishop of Seville. Despite Spanish origin they are highly valuable for the Latin liturgy in general, due to the importance of the so-called Mozarabic or Visigothic Rite as a source for reconstruction of Latin cursus cathedralis in current case of lacking Roman Rite materials from the times before cursus monasticus' domination over the pure cathedral office. The latter had been an ideal reference for the recent reform of the Liturgy of the Hours and that is the reason why the term – for unclear causes the term only – orationes super psalmos was included in it. According to the General Introduction to the Liturgy of the Hours orationes super psalmos could be defined as an ancient part of the Office being meditation on psalms, which supports a prayer of them and their Christian interpretation. Moreover, the role of psalm-prayers is as important as antiphons and tituli psalmorum, so they should be well known too. Obviously, to spread them to the faithful it is necessary to make a modem translation, which will be the next step in author's work at “Liber Orationum Psalmographus”.polCC-BY-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Bez utworów zależnychliturgia godzinpsalmybrewiarzmodlitwamodlitwa Kościołareforma liturgiiKościółliturgiaLiturgy of the Hourspsalmsbreviaryprayerprayer of the Churchreform of liturgyChurchliturgyArticle
