 THE CALENDAR
in the
BREVIARYOF ST. FRANCIS
The reason why the calendar of the Breviary of St. Francis has
to be transcribed in its entirety does not need much explanation.
Thirteenth century Roman calendars are extremely scarce,* even
though at that time the liturgy "according to the use of the Roman
Curia" must have known at least four official calendars.
Shortly before the death of Innocent IV, a uniformcalendar was
published for a group of churches in Rome. It is the calendar
belonging to the sacramentaries in the Vatican library, Ottobon.
lat. 356, and the City library of Avignon, 100, and the lectionary
in the Bibliothèque Nationale of Paris, lat. 755. Since 1924, the
sacramentaries have been regarded as documents of the papal
court;2 so is since 1934 the lectionary.3 Soon I hope to prove in
greater detail that these codices are the relics of a liturgical
movement in Rome, developed most probably under the supervision
of Cardinal John Cajetan Orsini, who became Pope Nicholas III in
1277. Strictly speaking, the books and their calendar are "according
to the use of the papal court". Yet, they are so overloaded with
local feasts and feasts new or traditional, introduced for a special
purpose, that the whole can hardly give a picture of the real
calendar of the court.
The Friars Minor published two revisions of their Roman, i.e.,
Curial, calendar. That belonging to the breviary and missal based
on Haymo of Faversham's Ordinaries (1243-44) is well known. It is
to be found in the many Roman breviaries and missals used by
Franciscans, Augustinians, Servîtes, etc. up to the sixteenth
century. Its prototype dates fromshortly after 1260, more precisely
fromafter the introduction of the feast of St. Bernard (August 20)

into the Franciscan liturgy4- the result of a "festive" rivalry

between the Franciscans and the Dominicans5 - and before the
first correction officially prescribed to be made in the feast of
St. Bibiana (December 2). 6 The forty years following the pro-
mulgation of the Franciscan Rule (1223) were a period of great
liturgical activity for the friars. The "Haymonian" calendar isa
development of that belonging to the books published, in virtue
of that Rule, between the years 1223-43. New Franciscan feasts
have been added as well as Saints more generally venerated, such
as St. Catherine of Alexandria7 and St. Bernard of Clervaux. Other

5. Afterthe canonization of St. Francisin 1228,the Cistercianscelebrated his
feastas a commemoration. In 1255,twoyearsafterthecanonization of St. Peterof
Veronaand thirteen yearsafterthatof St. Dominic, theyintroduced also thesetwo
Dominican feasts,notas simplecommemorations butas feastsof "twelvelessons".
Thefavoris officially said to havebeenrequested bythepopeandHughofSt. Cherbut
; actually ,theirrequestmusthave been formulated at the instigation of Humbert de
Romans, whoat thattimewas revising theliturgy ofhis Order.Humbert returned the
compliment by introducing thefeastof St. Bernard intotheDominican calendar. The
Franciscansthen,anxiousthattheFounderof theirOrdershouldnot be neglected,
askedtheCistercians to granthimthesamehonor, whichin fact was accordedbythe
Chapter of 1259. St. Bonaventure, the Ministergeneral, answered in histurnas Humbert
haddonebefore,introducing thefeastof St. Bernard intothe Franciscan calendar. -

feasts were suppressed, such as the Dedications of the Roman

basilicas of the Lateran and of Sts. Peter and Paul, which till
then had survived even in the books of the friars.8 It cannot be
established whether this "Haymonian" compilation contains still
other alterations.
The calendar prior to Haymo's correction, or, more precisely,
prior to 1260 circa, is practically unknown. A presumably reliable
copy of this pre-Haymonian calendar is to be found in the breviary-
antiphonal in the Franciscan friaryof Munich,9 but here again the
question arises how far this (and its exemplar) agrees with the
common source from which all Franciscan calendars have been
derived.
This commonsource is the calendar corresponding to the Ordinary
of Innocent III, composed in the years 1216-23, No copy of this
calendar is known to have survived, except that in the Breviary of
St. Francis of Assisi. The book is in no way an official one; nor
can it be regarded with certainty as actually having been used at
court. Its calendar, moreover, has been altered according to the
later additions and changes of both the pre-Haymonian and the
Haymonian calendars. Nevertheless, it will be fundamental for
furtherstudy, until another more reliable manuscript is discovered.
In thè following description the original spelling has been
retained with all its corruptions and blunders, though in a few
cases these have been pointed out in the notes or corrected in the
text with the aid of square brackets Original punctuation and use
of capitals have been kept; the few entries in red are printed in
italics. The columns of Sunday Letters and Golden Numbers have
been omitted, as they have no liturgical significance. For practical
purposes the Roman dating had to be replaced by the modern
cyphering. Additions and corrections have been printed in ordinary
brackets. Since the original is written in double columns, the
marginal additions were made alternately either before the column
of dates or after that of the lessons (Nl). This lay-out has been
followed in the transcription, except that the double columns could
not be printed on the same page.
