Description: Like New. Clean, tigh book. 267pp. Bibliographic note. Notes. Indices. Section of color plates. A sequel to Jesus Through the Centuries, this scholarly study of Christ's mother Mary by Jaroslav Pelikan, a Yale historian of Christian theology, is thoroughly grounded in formal theology yet still explores the many manifestations of Marian devotion that have emerged in the wider culture. read more
"If you could somehow sort out everything in the history of Christianity pertaining to Mary, what would be left? So asks the author. It's a very helpful look at the history of Mary's cultural, social, and of course theological influences. There are some esoteric digressions into Goethe and Dante that I just couldn't follow, being unfamiliar with the works he examines, but most everything else was worthwhile. Those perplexed by Catholic Marian doctrine won't find a robust defense of it here, but it certainly does provide a survey of the whole that helps explain Mary's place at the heart of the Church--a heart that can never be considered in isolation from its Head."
