The Post-Communion Prayers in the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite aims to provide easy access to the Latin source texts for every single post-communion prayer in the Roman Missal as reformed after the Second Vatican Council.

Readers will thus be able to compare any given post-communion prayer with its source text(s), to observe any differences between them, and how major or minor such differences might be in terms of tone, vocabulary, style, theology, etc. Along with references to the critical editions of the various source texts, citations of the Corpus Orationum and Corpus Praefationum series of volumes (Brepols) have also been provided where possible, to aid further research.

As well as being helpful for studies of the post-communion prayers of the Roman Missal, this book is another contribution by Matthew Hazell to the ongoing critical assessment of the post-Vatican II liturgical reforms.
