Abstract

This paper is based on the ordines of the Pontifical of Roda and of the Vic Roman Pontifical, two manuscripts composed in the first half of the 11th century. Their variants are analysed in relation to the contemporary ordines transmitted by the pontificals of the Romano-Germanic and English type. The aim is to explain the new and original characteristics of the rite towards the year 1000, in the wake of the seminal work of M. Andrieu, J. Barriga and R. Reynolds. Special attention is given to the instruction of the elected, to the unctions (head and hands) and to the variants recorded in the manuscripts.
