Klaus Gamber

Klaus Gamber (23 April 1919 – 2 June 1989) was a German Catholic liturgist.

Gamber was born in Ludwigshafen am Rhein in 1919. He was the author of ''Die Reform der römischen Liturgie'', which was subsequently translated into English and published as ''The Reform of the Roman Liturgy: Its Problems and Background''. He was one of the principal intellectual critics of the liturgical reforms brought under the papacy of Paul VI. His critical work was praised by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger (the later Pope Benedict XVI), and he is credited with being one of the academic inspirations behind the motu proprio Summorum Pontificum, allowing broader use of the 1962 Roman Missal.

Gamber died in Regensburg in 1989. Provided by Wikipedia
