A Typicon based on the Gregorian Calendar exists? Tell me more; I'd love to see it!

The Typicon is a fat liturgical book, most easily accessible in Church-Slavonic. To the best of my knowledge it is out-of-print at the moment, but then I've not attempted to find one recently and it is possible that the Moscow Patriarchate has reprinted it. It is unlikely to be translated into English until all the other service-books have been translated first, because the Typicon frequently refers to specific liturgical texts and with the current plethora of translations that would make for impossible confusion. If you can read Church-Slavonic, by all means take a close look at the Typicon.

The Old-Ritualist edition is called the Oko Tserkovnoie, and is much larger than the Nikonian one. It has not yet been reprinted (I keep hoping). There is a copy in the Eparchial Museum in Melbourne, Australia, and I think the library of the Pontifical Oriental Institute has one. Interesting reading.

George Harastej reprinted the Nikonian Typicon in the late 1960s, using good Bible-paper. As books go, it's a nice edition - and as books go, my copy went somewhere a few decades ago. Fortunately, I have a copy of the Moscow reprint from the late 1950s.

Best of luck finding one.

Yes, I understand there are Typicons; I was also specific about the context for the point I was making, saying it and purposefully repeating it: "in terms of indicating what should be observed and when."

But I don't see why the content of the traditional typicons would not map onto the Gregorian calendar. What might be a problem?
