This volume examines the changing role of Marian devotion in
politics, public life, and popular culture in Western Europe and
America during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The book
brings together, for the first time, studies on Marian devotions
across the Atlantic, tracing their role as a rallying point to
fight secularization, adversarial ideologies, and rival religions.
This transnational approach illuminates the deep transformations of
devotional cultures across the world. Catholics adopted modern
means and new types of religious expression to foster mass
devotions that epitomized the catholic essence of the "nation." In
many ways, the development of Marian devotions across the world is
also a response to the questioning of Pope Sovereignty. These
devotional transformations followed an Ultramontane pattern
inspired not only by Rome but also by other successful models
approved by the Vatican such as Lourdes. Collectively, they shed
new light on the process of globalization and centralization of
Catholicism.
