This book presents a critical edition of a collection of liturgical manuscripts that theAugustinian friar Onofrio Panvinio (1530-1568) assembled in the 1560s for the CardinalAlessandro Farnese as well as for Hans Jakob Fugger in Augsburg. Onofrio Panvinio isprimarily known for his antiquarian studies about ancient Rome and for his editionof Bartolomeo Platina's Lives of the Popes. His preoccupation with the Roman rite, however, remains until today largely unnoticed by modern scholarship. This editionof Panvinio's Vetusti aliquot rituales libri highlights his interests in the developmentof Roman liturgy during the last sessions of the Council of Trent (1545-1563) by presentingthe various documentary as well as cultural layers of Panvinio's collection ofRoman ritual manuscripts.
