medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture Re: [M-R] Saints of the Day 15.August
In the Roman Calendar, 8 Sept is Mary's birthday; IC day, the feast of her conception, is celebrated nine months prior, on 8 Dec.
 
BTW, we still read (a selection from) Munificentissimus Deus today in the Office of Readings (aka Vigils; fka Matins).

medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture BOTH Ineffabilis Deus AND do exist :


So, Imm. Conc. day (Mary's birthday) is Sept. 8 , and Ass. day (Mary's deathday) is Aug. 15 .

In Elx, Catalunya, Nov. 1 is now the anniversary of the Assumption dogma declaration by Pius XII. Consequently, the Elxans (or whatever you call them, for example "ilicitanos", which is the official castilian denomination) have two Assumption Days and no All Saints Day in their local christian calendar. Isn't that weird ?
