{"product_id":"fundamentals-of-mariology-carol","title":"Fundamentals of Mariology - Carol","description":"\u003cp\u003eFundamentals of Mariology by Fr. Juniper Carol OFM is a priceless overview of the most essential points of Catholic teaching on the Blessed Virgin Mary. In it, Fr. Carol explains in a systematic way according to Scripture, Tradition, and the Catholic Magisterium, the various privileges and prerogatives of Our Lady such as the Immaculate Conception, Her perpetual virginity, the Mediation of All Graces, Coredemption, the Assumption, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe hope this small book proves very useful for Catechesis and Apologetics for those seeking to provide a thoroughly Catholic response to the many contemporary questions and objections to traditional Mariological doctrine. We include below the prefatory introduction of Fr. Cyril Vollert, SJ on the value of this work:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"One of the most striking phases of Catholic life in the United States is the growing desire of the younger laity for instruction in the science of theology, particularly on the college level. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYet a distressing obstacle encountered in all endeavors to teach sacred doctrine in a satisfactory way is the woeful dearth of good textbooks in English. A few series of texts have been written in recent years but have not gained wide acceptance. This is true of theology in general, and is especially applicable to that part of theology which is Mariology. Some books, which were highly esteemed in their day, are by now antiquated, such as the Pohle-Preuss Mariology. Others, like The Mother of the Savior and Our Interior Life by Garrigou-Lagrange or the two-volume Mariology by Scheeben, are quite unsuited for classroom use. Accordingly teachers of Mariology in colleges and universities, as well as professors of theology in seminaries, will welcome the appearance of Fundamentals of Mariology by the learned theologian, Father Juniper B. Carol, O.F.M.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe author was admirably equipped to undertake his task. He is unquestionably the most prominent Mariologist in the United States and ranks with the best in the world. His scores of articles on various aspects of his favorite subject have appeared in many journals in Europe and America. The greatest of his books thus far published is his monumental volume, De Corredemptione Beatae Virginis Mariae, which has won universal acclaim. The indefatigable Franciscan is the founder of the Mariological Society of America and is the editor of its annual proceedings, Marian Studies. At the present time he is directing the most ambitious Mariological project ever undertaken in our country, the three-volume set entitled Mariology, to which he has also contributed several papers. Fundamentals of Mariology has no counterpart in the English language. It is the fruit of ripened scholarship and, no less pertinently, reveals the experience of years spent in teaching Mariology.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eREV.
