This maybe slightly too broad a question for Ecclesiantics - if so happy to be moved on gracefully by hosts...

I'm increasingly thinking that I need to learn some liturgy. My spirituality & praxis is very Eucharistic, but I'm now hankering to know how the nuts & bolts (horrible phrase I know) of the Mass came to be where they now are.

I'd welcome suggested reading. Also, is there a "mass In Slow motion" or "mass with commentary" anywhere on the web? I can't find it but maybe my Google-fu has been sapped by the summer heat...

Thanks in advance to all,

SSS

If you type "mass In Slow motion" in quotation marks into the Google search box you get 36,400 results in return with some very relevant links on the first page.

If you type "mass with commentary" within quotation marks into the Google search box you get 29,200 resutlts. The links on the first page are mainly books and a video for purchase.

seconded - though if you take him seriously, you have to remove your wristwatch and wedding ring before vesting.

Methinks not, but I suspect leo writes mutatis mutandis.

SSS, the very best way is to attended Mass and watch carefully. Then get trained to properly serve a Mass (as in acolyte) and then WATCH the priest carefully. Don't be all pious, but watch. Repeat and repeat and repeat. Copy. Best way.

Well, he would be used to married deacons.

I went through a phase of removing my wrist watch (I don't wear any jewellery) but I need it to keep my preaching to a decent, short time.

Bishop Burnham used to remove his wedding ring when saying Mass, if memory serves.

He didn't wear it all for more than the last half of his episcopate. (Lost or 'shrunk'? I can't remember.)

If you want something basic, you could try this site.

I've noticed that the links are broken, so here is the list of chapters:

the Gathering and Preparation of the people of God
the Ministry of the Word
the Ministry of the Sacrament
the Dismissal

there [are] four important things in life: religion, love, art and science. At their best, they’re all just tools to help you find a path through the darkness. None of them really work that well, but they help.
