Statutes, ‘consuetas’ and ‘ceremonieros’. Liturgical memory of the Toledo Cathedral (13th-16th centuries)
Abstract
This work refers to a very specific part of the liturgical corpus of the cathedral of Toledo. It is a small set of books and notebooks, which, under the name of consuetas, customs or ceremonies, collected the uses of each place: calendar of festivities, rank of each celebration, memories and anniversaries. All of them were the perfect complement to the Missals, Breviaries and Manuals or Ordinaries used, respectively, for the celebration of mass, the office and the administration of the sacraments or other rites. Together with them, I will add the information offered by chapter statutes and constitutions, which regulated many details of the cathedral ceremonial and the role played by the different groups that made up the chapter and even its lay servants.
