CHIAVARI. The "Latin Mass" is becoming increasingly popular field in Liguria. That it comes this new book where ancient and modern merge. The result is "Introibo altar to the Gods," which takes as its title the first words spoken by the celebrant at the beginning of the rite. The book, written in six hands by Elvis Cuneo, Daniel and Raymond Sorce Mameli, deepens and makes it understandable to everyone the meaning of service to the altar in the traditional Roman liturgy.
The editorial project of modernity is that the authors are students between 23 and 31 and love living in three different regions (Liguria, Tuscany and Sardinia), they met through the Internet, attending Catholic forum. A move to the Latin Mass is not only faith but also the desire to show that the Roman Rite is not class and elderly.

In the book, with contributions from Elvis Cuneo, there is also a bit 'of Tigullio. Cuneo was in fact born in Chiavari in 1982, is a singer, organist and studied philosophy at the Catholic University of Sacro Cuore di Milano. Passionate about the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas and neo-Thomism (the movement of contemporary philosophical and theological riprende e rivaluta il sistema filosofico di San Tommaso), si occupa di temi religiosi e liturgici con articoli pubblicati su riviste cattoliche e siti internet.
«Il nostro è un manuale che viene in aiuto a coloro che, sacerdoti, seminaristi, ministranti e laici, vogliano introdursi alla forma tradizionale del rito romano – spiega Cuneo –. Il rigore interpretativo, la chiarezza e il riferimento costante alle fonti sono le caratteristiche principali di questo compendio. Benedetto XVI, con il motu proprio “Summorum Pontificum” del 7 luglio dello scorso anno, ha decretato che la liturgia tradizionale, la messa di San Pio V, non è mai stata abrogata e costituisce un tesoro che appartiene a tutta la Chiesa». In

For Elvis Cuneo, Daniel Sorce (born in Livorno in 1985, a student of modern literature at the University of Pisa) and Raymond Mameli (born in Cagliari in 1977, a student of theology at the Pontifical Theological Faculty of Sardinia) this is first book written together. The writing took a year and, in the projects, there is soon an official presentation at the "Cultural Center Candiasco" of Casarza Ligure.
