CHURCH OF THE HOLY INNOCENTS
We gladly
announce that on Tuesday, May 12, 2015 the Society of Hugh of Cluny will sponsor a Solemn High
Mass at 6:00 PM at the Church of the Holy Innocents.
Following the
Mass, at 7:30 PM, Professor Luc Perrin and Martin Mosebach will
speak in Holy Innocents Hall in the lower level of the church.
Luc Perrin, of
the University of Strasbourg, France, is perhaps the foremost historian of the
Catholic Traditionalist movement in France and in the world. He has publicly
defended and proven that “Traditionalism” is not simply a “20th century
French political and national movement,” but a more universal phenomenon that
has found a much increased popularity, interest, and support in the United
States, which Dr. Perrin designates “the promised land for traditional
Catholicism.”
Martin
Mosebach is one of the foremost authors of Germany. In his own country, he
is best known as a novelist and essayist. However, in the English-speaking
Catholic world, he is most known and remembered as the author of The
Heresy of Formlessness,the seminal work on the traditional Liturgy, which
discusses the negative consequences the liturgical rupture has caused in the
Catholic Church in the last 5 decades.
Luc Perrin
will speak on: “From Benedict
to Francis, the Church in Europe at a New Crossroads.”
Martin
Mosebach will then speak on: “Paradise on
Earth: the Liturgy as a Window on the Hereafter.”
Please join us
for this rare opportunity to hear two leading European Catholic thinkers!
Admission is
free and open to the public.
