A personal prayer book written for Christian laity. The Canon of Hours refers to prayers at set times each day. [Origin, Content] The Book of Hours was originally a collection of psalms, a personal prayer book used most commonly in the early Middle Ages, and was modeled after the breviary, a book of religious services for the clergy. The breviary was originally a collection of Bible, hymns, psalms, and prayers, but for various reasons it was compiled into a single book in the 12th century at the Monte Cassino Abbey and other monasteries. It quickly became popular throughout Europe. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
キリスト教の平信徒のために書かれた個人用祈禱書。時禱(正しくは時課)とは毎日の定時の祈禱をいう。 [起源,内容] 時禱書の前身として,中世初期にもっとも一般的に使用された個人用祈禱書としての《詩篇》を重視する説と,聖職者用の聖務日課書(抄本)breviaryがその手本である,とする説がある。聖務日課書は,かつて聖書,賛歌,交誦,集禱文など数冊に分かれていたが,種々の便宜と目的のため12世紀にモンテ・カッシノ修道院などで1冊の抄本にまとめられ,以後急激にヨーロッパ各地に普及したものである。 出典 株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について 情報 |
