 * This is a good source of information: http://www.viarosa.com/VR/Loreto/Rosaries.html This is the version I know, which includes JPII's "Mother of the Church" and "Queen of the Family" (added accordingly). I removed "Queen of the World"; I haven't seen that used elsewhere (link?) -- ronyu02

Title redirect
I kept looking for the Litany of Loreto (or Loretto, still not sure which is correct) and under the Search it didn't come up at all! Can someone make a Litany of Loreto and/or a Litany of Loretto page that redirects to this one? I looked at the Help pages but couldn't figure out how to do it.

"Historical criticism"
"Historical criticism posits it to have been composed during the early years of the 16th century or the closing years of the 15th."

There is no citation for this, and it's unclear how historical criticism differs from the theories earlier in that paragraph. More generally, what exactly is historical criticism, as opposed to, say, history? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.221.57.236 (talk) 16:03, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
