In Introduction to Mariology, Fr. Manfred Hauke provides a
synthesis of Mariology and the biblical fundaments and development
of Marian doctrine. While it works as a comprehensive introduction
suitable for courses on the subject, it is in reality a panoramic
view on the entire Marian doctrine, and as such will be essential
for the theological formation of seminarians, priests, theologians,
and all kinds of educated Catholics. With an unparalleled
bibliographic citation of Marian literature across a dozen
languages, it is also a perfect gateway to further research on the
subject. It begins with Biblical doctrine, which is important
especially for the dialogue with Protestant denominations: Catholic
Mariology can be traced in its "embryonic" state already in Holy
Scripture. From there Hauke presents a historical overview of the
whole development of Marian doctrine, before developing further
historical details in the subsequent chapters dedicated to
systematic issues. The first systematic step approaches the figure
of Mary through her role in the mystery of the Covenant between God
and redeemed humanity; her being "Mother of God" and companion of
the Redeemer is the "fundamental principle." Then the four
established Marian dogmas are presented: divine maternity,
virginity, Immaculate Conception (in a chapter on Mary's holiness
more broadly), and bodily Assumption. A close look is given to
maternal mediation which includes a part dedicated to the "Mater
Unitatis". A stand alone chapter is dedicated to Marian
apparitions; authentic apparitions are presented as a part of
prophetic charisma. The last chapter presents the basics on Marian
devotion which culminates in the consecration to Mary (as a
response to her maternal mediation). Already available in Spanish,
Italian, Portugese, and Korean, this landmark work is published
here for the first time in English.
