The new missal received the additional name Romanum according to the Roman rite . In 1588, Pope Sixtus V set up the Congregation for Rites to ensure the uniformity of the missal. 1962 appeared at the behest of Pope John XXIII. , a new edition of the Missale Romanum ( Editio typica ), which was supplemented in 1965 and 1967.
