This set of links is for the Latin, or Roman, Rite of the Catholic Church.

Those articles that discuss the issue of "participatio actuosa"
as "active participation" are marked with two asterisks (**) before their title.

Those articles that only mention the issue of "participatio actuosa"
as "active participation" are marked with one asterisk (*) before their title.

Some entries have two links, one directly under the other with no
text in between them. These are separate copies of the same article,
from different sites on the web. 

Within each section (excluding Main Web Sites),
the articles are generally in chronological order.

For those links that are broken, for which I have a copy of
the article, I've included the full link, with the file as
an on-line copy.

(Some excerpts in regard to the "new calendar")
"Much more serious yet is the unfortunate mutilation of the
liturgical year and the Holy Mass in the New Ordo. Is our faith
supposed to be renewed and vivified by greatly weakening our sense
of community with Christians of former times, a community which is
so centrally important for the true Christian ethos?" (pg. 69)

"The so-called "renewal of the liturgy has robbed us of any
possibility of a true participation in the liturgical year. In the
Tridentine Mass one experienced in a living way Advent, Christmas,
Epiphany, Septuagesima, Lent and Passion Week, the Resurrection of
Christ, the glorious Easter season, the Ascension of Christ, the
anticipation of the Holy Spirit, and the blissful feasts". (pg. 70)

"[The new Ordo/Mass] no longer draws us into the true experience of
the liturgical year; we are deprived of this experience through the
catastrophic elimination of the hierarchy of feasts, octaves, many
great feast of saints, and through the practice, in the remaining
feasts of saints, of remembering the saint only in the Collect and
Postcommunion". (Pg. 71)

"Truly, if one of the devils in C.S. Lewis' the Screwtape Letters
had been entrusted with the ruin of the liturgy, he could not have
done it better." (Pg. 71)

(An excerpt)
The chapters on liturgy brilliantly identify errors and misconceptions:
"The principle of creativity stems from the false presupposition that
the liturgy ought to express the feelings of the faithful, and that it is
something that they themselves produce. what it really expresses is
the mystery of Christ, Christ being the true source of the liturgy.
The new view implicitly reduces the liturgy to the level of poetry" (p. 632).
And: "The policy of creativity, which is intended to make the liturgy
'more lively and participatory' produces two effects. Firstly, it changes
a sacred action into a theatrical display. Secondly, it changes the
celebrant's activity into something private, or idiosyncratic, when in
fact it always has a public and social character, even when it takes
place in private" (p. 633).

James W. McKinnon
University of California Press, 2000
ISBN 0520221982
(Three excerpts from p. 358)
(Referring to the later fourth century)
"Sundays outside of Lent and Paschaltime are observed but not
defined. The post-Vatican II preference for referring to these days
as Sundays in "Ordinary Time" is, by the way, based on an
attempt to restore early Christian conceptions and to undo the
work of early medieval liturgists. These Sundays, in any event,
came to be named eventually and assigned their own prayers,
readings, and, finally chants.
By the early seventh century the Roman sacramentaries and
lectionaries had Sundays after the Epiphany (in varying numbers),
the Septuagesima trio... ."

(Referring to the later seventh century)
"The most decisive step taken by the Roman singers to achieve
the final form of the year was to stabilize the number of
Advent Sundays at four, and to place them at the
beginning of the church year as a lyric prelude to Christmas.
Chants of the various genres were provided (most of them new)
so as to create a coherent unit beginning with the first Sunday
of Advent and ending with the third Sunday after Epiphany.
The Septuagesima trio was given psalmic chants resembling
those of Lent, creating a second homogeneous unit."

"And finally the post-Pentecostal period,
while retaining the somewhat ungainly signposts of the
key Roman sanctoral dates, was unified with
continuous sequences of twenty-two chants for each genre,
made up largely of numerically ordered psalmic chants."

A chart to show the first seven centuries of the liturgical year.

From:
http://www.ewtn.com/library/LITURGY/ADOREMUS.TXT
Father Joseph Fessio writes:
"It is a sad fact that the liturgy has too long been in the hands of
self-appointed experts, many of whom are openly hostile to essential
Catholic teaching. Far too many liturgical commissions function as
political pressure groups with a self-perpetuauting membership, rather
than as agencies genuinely fostering greater understanding and
appropriation of --and actual participation in-- the Church's worship.
And in the United States (as elsewhere) even conferences of bishops,
relying on these liturgical commissions, have permitted liturgical
changes which have contributed to an impoverishment rather than an
enrichment of the liturgy."

This is the Congregation's warning about the
consequences of denying communion to the faithful
because they are kneeling.
It also refers to Cardinal Ratzinger's "The Theology of Kneeling".

Kneeling To Receive Holy Communion
Congregation for Divine Worship
Prot. N. 47/03/L

This has the authoritative interpretation of what the norm on
kneeling means.
(Note that this letter does not quote Prot. n. 1322/02/L,
showing that the Congregation has written to more than
one bishop about this abuse of the faithful.)
(An excerpt)
"...while this Congregation gave the recognitio to the norm desired by the
Bishops' Conference of your country that people stand for Holy Communion,
this was done on the condition that communicants who choose to kneel are
not to be denied Holy Communion on these grounds. Indeed, the faithful
should not be imposed upon nor accused of disobedience and of acting
illicitly when they kneel to receive Holy Communion."

[Re]Turn to the East?
A young priest asks if it is time to consider a change in practice
by Father Thomas Kocik
November, 1999
http://www.adoremus.org/1199-Kocik.html
(An excerpt)
"In her book The Desolate City, Anne Roche Muggeridge
offers this trenchant proposal:
'If an angel allowed me one suggestion as to what more than
anything else would most quickly restore the sense of the sacred
to the Mass, it would be this to do away with Mass facing the people.
I am convinced that the position of the priest at the altar is the single
most important liturgical "external" symbol, the one that carries the
most doctrinal baggage. To put the priest back on our side of the altar,
facing with us towards God, would at one stroke restore the Mass
from an exercise in interpersonal relationship to the universal prayer
of the Church to God our Father. With the priest facing God once
more as leader of the people, the importance of the microphone will
diminish, and the priest can stop making faces at us. He and we can
go back to thinking only about what is happening in the Mystery.'"

**Crisis Magazine Review of the book
http://www.crisismagazine.com/january2002/book2.htm
A quote from the review:
"The "active participation" fraud that has been enforced in Catholic
liturgy with fascist efficiency, causing many a beautiful church to be
destroyed or maimed, is based on an erroneous translation of a term in the
Vatican II document Sacrosanctum Concilium. As Rose points out,
that document never uses the word activa, a word that would preclude any
contemplative aspect to participation. Rather it uses the term actuosa
participatio, which combines both the contemplative (internal)
and active (external) aspects of participation."

**Zap! Your Church Is Renovated!
Slam! Your Parish Is Closed!
Duane Galles
Christifidelis
November 1, 1995
http://www.ewtn.com/library/CANONLAW/ZAP.HTM
A quote from this article:
   "The first key concept which has been misinterpreted and misapplied is
   participatio actuosa of SC[Sacrosanctum Concilium].
   It has been mistranslated as "active participation" which, in English,
   can imply that for participation to be genuine it must involve physical
   activity. For a proper understanding of the phrase, one can paraphrase
   the original Latin of the 1958 instruction, De musica sacra, to say
   that participation ought to be internal and, certainly, exercised
   with a spirit of piety and heartfelt affection. Given this understanding
   of the concept, "actual participation" might be a more accurate
   translation. In any event, the liturgical "establishment's"
   understanding has had pernicious consequences, such as the attentive
   assistance at Mass and participation in the changes in posture or
   responses being dismissed by some liturgists as inadequate.
   Thus, communion rails are destroyed, altars thrust forward like
   theaters-in-the-round, statues are removed and the Blessed
   Sacrament banished, since their presence would inhibit a maximum
   of activity, which inevitably deteriorates into mere busyness."
