Lent And The Holy Week In Rome by Charles Isidore Hemans. This volume compiles brief notices on the observances and ceremonial of the Lenten season in Rome, many previously published in periodicals, presented here for on-the-spot reference. It explains the origin and universality of Lent, then details the principal rites and monuments that define Rome's Holy Week—Ash Wednesday at the Cappella Papale and the distribution of ashes; the Stations of the Cross and Friday sermons; the Benediction of the Golden Rose on the fourth Sunday; the Palm Sunday procession; the solemnities of Tenebrae and Holy Week at the Vatican and St. Peter’s; the Lavanda and Supper on Holy Thursday; the Adoration of the Cross on Good Friday; the Resurrection liturgy and Easter illuminations; the Scala Santa and Sanctum Sanctorum; and the Hospital of Pilgrims. Hemans also surveys art, architecture, relics (including the True Cross), and the liturgical devices that give the rites their solemn, ceremonial character. The work reads as an informative manual for travelers and admirers of Rome's sacred ceremonial life.
