Editing Cathedral (section)

====Priests and archpriests====
[[File:Catedral da Sé em São Paulo.jpg|thumb|[[São Paulo Cathedral]] in [[Brazil]] is a representative modern cathedral built in [[Gothic Revival architecture|Neo-Gothic]] style.]]
It was expected that the normal president at both the Eucharist and Baptism would be the bishop, who would celebrate in the cathedral and in titular churches in turn. However, in practice, the bishop needed deputies for the Eucharist and also for the [[Canonical hours|Divine Office]] of daily prayer, and this duty fell to the priests. The bishop selected a senior priest as [[archpriest]] who acted as his official deputy in all ritual matters and as head of the familia. The archpriest was also responsible for the cathedral school. After the 5th century, there were no longer state-supported secular teachers of [[rhetoric]] and [[grammar]] in the West (other than in parts of Italy) and so the church would have to educate its own.
