(Berdmore) Ritual Conformity Interpretations of the Rubrics of the Prayer-Book Agreed Upon by a Conference Held at All Saints, Margaret-street, 1880-1881 Produced by Elaine Laizure from images generously made available from the Internet Archive "Ritual Conformity" by Berdmore Compton is a scholarly work that provides interpretations of the rubrics of the Prayer Book, written in the late 19th century. The text emerges from a conference held at All Saints, Margaret Street, which aimed to address the diversity of ritual practices within the Anglican Church. The book cohesively discusses various aspects of ritual and their proper adherence to the established rubrics, reflecting the authors' attempts to foster unity in practice while respecting the traditions and legal framework of the Church of England. The opening of "Ritual Conformity" lays the groundwork for a thorough examination of the Prayer Book's rubrics following the established traditions of the Anglican Church. It outlines the origins and discussions of a conference convened to minimize unnecessary diversity in ritual practices across different churches. Compton emphasizes the importance of a unified interpretation of the Prayer Book that captures both historical significance and contemporary concerns, while acknowledging the challenges posed by modern prejudices. As the text unfolds, it becomes clear that the work seeks not only to clarify ritual practices but also to promote a deeper understanding of the significance behind the rites of worship within the Anglican tradition.
