[td]Some [[Traditionalist Catholic]]s reject to a greater or lesser extent the changes made since 1950. None advocate returning to the original (1570) form of the liturgy, though some may perhaps wish a re-establishment of its form before Pius X's revision of the rubrics in 1911. Some are critical of the 1955 changes in the liturgy of Palm Sunday and the Easter Triduum and in the liturgical calendar (see [[General Roman Calendar of Pope Pius XII]]), and instead use the [[General Roman Calendar as in 1954]]. Others accept the 1955 changes by Pius XII, but not those of Pope John XXIII. Others again, in accordance with the authorization granted by Pope Benedict XVI in ''[[Summorum Pontificum]]'', use the Missal and [[General Roman Calendar of 1960|calendar]] as it was in 1962. They argue that many of the changes made to the liturgy in 1955 and onward were largely the work of liturgist [[Annibale Bugnini]], whom traditionalists say was more interested in innovation than the preservation of the [[Sacred tradition|apostolic traditions]] of the Church.<ref>{{Cite book |last=LΓ‘szlΓ³ |first=Dobszay |url= |title=The Bugnini-liturgy and the reform of the reform |date=2003 |publisher=Catholic Church Music Associates |oclc=909770654}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Davies |first=Michael |url= |title=Liturgical time bombs in Vatican II : the destruction of Catholic faith through changes in Catholic worship |date=2013 |isbn=978-1-61890-433-1 |location=Charlotte, North Carolina |oclc=956997771}}</ref>[/td] [td][/td]
