Like St. Thomas Aquinas, he sympathizes with well-meaning objectors, conceding whatever truth their assertions contain before “turning around” their arguments. With irrefutable logic, often supplemented by quotations from saints, popes, and other traditional sources, he explains that—contrary to belief of the 1960s reformers—the Church knew what she was doing in carefully developing, then zealously maintaining, the Vetus Ordo (traditional Latin Mass).\r\n\r\nBetween Kwasniewski’s many published works, I have read thousands of pages of his writings, and I can confidently say that this is some of his absolute best.

The latter is seamlessly woven into his arguments and is indeed essential to it. For instance, in response to the claim that the traditional lectionary is stingy on Scripture, he says that “the novelty of the multi-year cycles and the monumental fact of ‘more Scripture’ distracted attention from the subtler question of what was lost in the transition” (153). What was lost includes “the function of Scripture in the Eucharistic sacrifice, the internal cohesion of the Mass as an ecosystem, the psychology of memory, the natural unit of the year, the due place of the sanctoral cycle, the spiritual role of difficult passages” (157), and more, each of which he treats in turn, with various and specific examples. I was especially struck by his reflection on the liturgical role of Scripture in pointing us to Christ and preparing us to unite ourselves with His sacrifice. While Scripture leads us deeper into liturgy, the traditional liturgy likewise opens up Scripture to us in new ways: “The very language of liturgy in all its dimensions is a continual exegesis of Scripture, a living and penetrating presentation of the mysteries of faith to the eyes of the soul” (240).

Turned Around: Replying to Common Objections Against the Traditional Latin Mass is a practical and clear book that examines the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) through a fresh lens. In each chapter, Dr. Peter Kwasniewski addresses common objections to the TLM, transforming these challenges into gateways for a deeper understanding and appreciation of its timeless beauty. From the reasons we worship facing East, to the profound significance of praying in Latin, and the ritual separation of priest and people, Turned Around sheds light on why these liturgical elements resonate so deeply with the faithful.

Various other topics will be explored within these pages, including:

  • Why the Traditional Mass Is Kingly and Courtly 
  • Why We Follow Inherited Rituals and Strict Rubrics 
  • Why We Repeat Ourselves in Traditional Worship 
  • Why We Use a One-Year Lectionary of Readings
  • Why it Is Better Not to Understand Everything Immediately 
  • Why We Kneel for Communion and Receive on the Tongue 

Turned Around provides the answers and intrigue to explore the paradoxical and countercultural elements of the TLM that have drawn the young and older faithful closer to the divine for centuries. This book is not just a defense of tradition; it is a journey to the heart of Catholic worship, promising to deepen the reader's spiritual life and understanding of the Mass. Whether you're a skeptic or a devout follower, Turned Around offers a compelling case for the enduring relevance and beauty of the Traditional Latin Mass.

Editorial Reviews

Karl Keating, Founder of Catholic Answers

“The public argument in favor of the Traditional Latin Mass has been waiting for a book that handles common objections thoroughly yet winsomely. This is that book. Other books examine at great length the historical, theological, and customary aspects of the old Mass, but those books are for the initiated. Turned Around is for newcomers and inquirers, particularly those who have been confused by stock arguments against the old Mass. The writing is clear, approachable, and often elegant. Any reader, no matter his current liturgical preference, will come away instructed, intrigued, and edified.”

Edward Feser, Professor of Philosophy, Pasadena City College

“It is a sign of the disorder of our times that many Catholics find that they have to defend—against fellow Catholics, of all people!—the Mass that for centuries molded the souls of so many saints and ordinary people alike. But that is where we are. Peter Kwasniewski’s Turned Around will contribute mightily to the restoration of liturgical and spiritual understanding.”

Eric Sammons, Editor of Crisis Magazine

“One of the few frustrations of attending the traditional Latin Mass is trying to explain its attractiveness to Catholics who only attend the new rite. Defending the TLM’s ‘foreignness’ to modern minds is a high barrier that’s difficult to overcome. In these pages, Dr. Kwasniewski not only ably accomplishes this task, he ‘turns around’ the common objections against the TLM to show that it’s the Mass of Ages that is truly at home in a fully Catholic worldview. ”

Cameron O’Hearn, Director of the Mass of the Ages Trilogy

“The most common objections to the TLM answered, once-and-for-all! Dr. Kwasniewski has crystallized centuries-old wisdom with his always persuasive prose and left us with a literary treasure. It might be the most convincing defense of the TLM I’ve ever read.”
