The Heresy of Formlessness: The Roman Liturgy and Its Enemy (French: Häresie der Formlosigkeit. Die römische Liturgie und ihr Feind) is an essay collection by the German writer Martin Mosebach. Mosebach, a Traditionalist Catholic, writes about the importance of liturgy and argues in favour of a mass revival of the Tridentine Mass in Ecclesiastical Latin, while criticizing the Mass of Paul VI in the vernacular as an expression of religious and cultural decline.[1][2][3]
Publication[edit]
