Confirmation In The Spirit By Conformation To Mary: The Gifts Of The Spirit In Mariological Perspective, Jacob Phillips
Confirmation In The Spirit By Conformation To Mary: The Gifts Of The Spirit In Mariological Perspective, Jacob Phillips
Marian Studies
This article investigates a Mariological interpretation of the sacrament of confirmation, exploring the figure of Mary as a model recipient of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, with broader implications for understanding the interrelation of nature and grace. It draws upon a strand of patristic Mariology that relates Christian initiation to conformation with Mary. Such passages are found in Origen, Gregory of Nazianzus and Gregory of Nyssa, who all speak of the souls of the faithful being conformed to Mary. As Mary received the Word of God in her womb, so Christ is formed more deeply in the soul of …
Peter Julian Eymard, Saint Of The Eucharist And Our Lady Of The Most Blessed Sacrament, Dwight P. Campbell
Peter Julian Eymard, Saint Of The Eucharist And Our Lady Of The Most Blessed Sacrament, Dwight P. Campbell
Marian Studies
St. Peter Julian Eymard (1811-1868) founded the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament in 1856 and is known as the “Saint of the Eucharist” (a title confirmed by Pope St. John XXIII in his canonization homily, Dec. 9, 1962). He explored many aspects of the great mystery of the Holy Eucharist in the conferences he delivered to his fellow religious over the years. These conferences have been published in nine separate volumes under different titles. One of the volumes—entitled “Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament: Readings for the Month of May”— consists of thirty-one conferences, one for each day of …
Our Lady Of The Blessed Sacrament: Theological Foundations And Historical Development, Richard May
Our Lady Of The Blessed Sacrament: Theological Foundations And Historical Development, Richard May
Marian Studies
This article traces the historical development and theological foundations for the title, “Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament.” It examines the reasons for the title rooted in St. Augustine’s recognition that "Jesus took his Flesh from the flesh of Mary.” Tracing the connection between the Virgin Mary and the Eucharist through the Patristic era, the Middle Ages, and more recent centuries, various works of art are noted as well the insights of spiritual writers. In particular, the contributions of St. Peter Julian Eymard (1811–1868) are highlighted along with those of Pope St. John Paul II. The article not only examines …

The Immaculate Conception: Gift And Sign For The Neophyte, Danielle M. Peters
The Immaculate Conception: Gift And Sign For The Neophyte, Danielle M. Peters
Marian Studies
Mary's indispensable participation in the historical event of the Incarnation which we profess in our baptismal belief, leads us to reflect on her participation in the sacramental event of the rebirth of her spiritual children. The PAMI Document “The Mother of the Lord: Memory, Presence, Hope” (art. 47; cf. USCCB, Behold your Mother, 55) points out that in the light of Ephesians 1:3-5 “baptism, the immersion into the Paschal mystery of Christ, (cf. Rm 6:3-5) corresponds sacramentally to Mary’s Immaculate Conception.” This article explores the Immaculate Conception as “a forceful sign of God’s grace operative within a creature” (art. 48) …
Our Lady’S Presence In The Mass In The Teaching Of Pope John Paul Ii, Arthur Burton Calkins
Our Lady’S Presence In The Mass In The Teaching Of Pope John Paul Ii, Arthur Burton Calkins
Marian Studies
This article builds on research I have already done and published in the Homiletic & Pastoral Review, in Mary at the Foot of the Cross, Vol. 6, and in Antiphon (2006). These studies were progressive so that each one developed the topic with more documentation. This article summarizes and synthesizes these studies in terms of the principles abstracted from the Pope John Paul II’s teaching and strive to find points of comparison in the works of theologians and mystics.
Mary And The Nuptial Dimension Of The Constitution Of The Church In The Eucharistic Sacrifice According To Hans Urs Von Balthasar, Chao Nguyen O.P.
Mary And The Nuptial Dimension Of The Constitution Of The Church In The Eucharistic Sacrifice According To Hans Urs Von Balthasar, Chao Nguyen O.P.
Marian Studies
Throughout the centuries, Christianity has reflected deeply on the Paschal dimension of the Eucharist as the source and summit of the Christian life. However, little has been said of its nuptial character. This essay examines Hans Urs von Balthasar’s theological insights on the Eucharist in both its sacrificial and nuptial dimensions in relationship to the Blessed Virgin Mary. For Balthasar, these dual aspects converge and are exemplified in Our Lady whose fiat at the Annunciation comes to a climax at the Crucifixion. There, she is mystically and nuptially united to the Son who gives himself away eucharistically, and she thus …

The Baptismal Spirituality Of St. Louis-Marie De Montfort, Frederick L. Miller
The Baptismal Spirituality Of St. Louis-Marie De Montfort, Frederick L. Miller
Marian Studies
St. Louis-Marie de Montfort (1673–1716) believed that Marian consecration was the perfect renewal of one’s baptismal promises. This article explores the foundations of St. Louis-Marie’s baptismal theology as grounded in the Council of Trent and the French School of spirituality of Cardinal Pierre de Bérulle (1575–1629). In a special way, the article shows how St. Louis-Marie incorporated Marian devotion into his parish missions. For St. Louis-Marie true devotion to Mary is ultimately a baptismal gift that serves communion with the Holy Trinity.

The present issue of Marian Studies marks a turning point. Fr. Thomas A. Thompson, SM, has been the editor of Marian Studies from Volume 41 in 1990 through Volume 67 in 2016. He will remain as the editor emeritus as a tribute to his many years of selfless service as both the editor of Marian Studies and the secretary of the Mariological Society of America. Words cannot express the gratitude all of us in the MSA have towards Fr. Thompson. We know that God will reward him with graces beyond what we can offer.

“Tota Pulchra Es”: Mary, The Song Of Songs, And The Sacraments, Ann W. Astell
“Tota Pulchra Es”: Mary, The Song Of Songs, And The Sacraments, Ann W. Astell
Marian Studies
In a pair of articles published in 1951 in Orate Fratres, Jean Daniélou, S.J., demonstrated that the Fathers of the Church interpreted the Song of Songs as a prophecy of the sacraments of initiation: Baptism, Eucharist, and Confirmation. This interpretation fostered continuity between the Jewish liturgy, which features the Song of Songs in the observance of Passover and Sabbath, on the one hand, and Christian ritual, which gives a place of honor to the sacraments of initiation in the Easter vigil, on the other. This article traces the application of the Song of Songs to the sacraments of initiation in …
Theological Themes In The Marian Eucharistic Meditations Of Fr. Daniel A. Lord, S.J., Edward Looney
Theological Themes In The Marian Eucharistic Meditations Of Fr. Daniel A. Lord, S.J., Edward Looney
Marian Studies
Fr. Daniel A. Lord, SJ (1888–1955) was known to many as the Hollywood Priest. He drafted the Production Code for Hollywood, which was used for several decades. Fr.

The Theology Of Reparation To The Immaculate Heart Of Mary, Arthur Burton Calkins
The Theology Of Reparation To The Immaculate Heart Of Mary, Arthur Burton Calkins
Marian Studies
The Theology of Reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary is a topic barely considered in modern theology, but strongly brought to the fore in the apparitions at Fatima and the subsequent apparitions to Sister Lúcia, the last surviving seer of Fatima and other mystics. The analogy or “likeness in difference” between the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the consecration to their Hearts, the Heart of the God-man and the Heart of the most perfect creature, is primary. In “Miserentissimus Redemptor,” Pius XI taught that just as in his agony Jesus not only …

Emergence And Development Of The Two Hearts Alliance, Lawrence Scrivani
Emergence And Development Of The Two Hearts Alliance, Lawrence Scrivani
Marian Studies
During the 1980s and 1990s the term “Two Hearts Alliance” appeared suddenly in certain Catholic circles without obvious antecedents. It inspired a popular movement for a time, even though Mariologists were unfamiliar with it. Investigation reveals that it can be traced to a phrase used by John Paul II in 1985, “the admirable alliance of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.” Beginning at Fatima in 1986 and continuing to Rome in 1997, several symposia examined its roots and implications. It was said to have roots in the notion of Mary as the Associate (socia) of Christ, a notion reaching back …
The Heart Of Mary In Light Of A Biblical Anthropology: Mother, Mystic, And Prophet, Virginia M. Kimball
The Heart Of Mary In Light Of A Biblical Anthropology: Mother, Mystic, And Prophet, Virginia M. Kimball
Marian Studies
The biblical emphasis of Vatican II and later developments, such as the address of Pope Benedict XVI to the Marian Congress of 2012 about studying the Blessed Mother from many different perspectives, have led mariologists to a new appreciation for a determined biblical-anthropological approach. This approach has great significance for understanding the heart of the Woman who “held all these things in her heart.” Mary’s heart connects all of us to her--as woman, mother, mystic, and prophet—to her who holds the Lord in her heart, a heart completely united to the heart of her Son, Jesus the Christ.
Theological Foundations For Eucharistic Reparation To The Heart Of Jesus Through The Heart Of Mary In The Context Of Messages Given To St. Margaret Mary And At Fatima, Dwight P. Campbell
Theological Foundations For Eucharistic Reparation To The Heart Of Jesus Through The Heart Of Mary In The Context Of Messages Given To St. Margaret Mary And At Fatima, Dwight P. Campbell
Marian Studies
The private revelations associated with Fatima, Portugal, beginning with the messages of the Angel to the children in 1916, and then by Our Lady beginning in May of 1917, focus on making reparation for sins and for the conversion of sinners through prayer and penance. Notably, the messages specifically request reparation for sins which offend the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and link this reparation to the Holy Eucharist—and, by implication, to Christ’s Heart present therein. The Fatima revelations follow upon and complement those communicated by Our Lord to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque at Paray-le-Monial in the 1670s, in which Jesus …
‘By Mary’S Heart We Love The Heart Of Jesus’: The Teachings Of St. Louis M. De Montfort (+1716) On Jesus’ And Mary’S Heart, Deyanira Flores
‘By Mary’S Heart We Love The Heart Of Jesus’: The Teachings Of St. Louis M. De Montfort (+1716) On Jesus’ And Mary’S Heart, Deyanira Flores
Marian Studies
The 100th Anniversary of the Apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima (1917-2017) offers us a good opportunity to meditate on and renew our devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. This paper dwells on the teachings of St. Louis M. de Montfort (+1716), which are so enlightening and profound. His teaching on Mary's Heart clearly contributed to the theology and devotion of Mary's Heart.
The Patristic Pre-History Of Devotion To The Immaculate Heart Of Mary, James K. Hanna
The Patristic Pre-History Of Devotion To The Immaculate Heart Of Mary, James K. Hanna
Marian Studies
Devotion to Mary’s Immaculate Heart emerged in the Middle Ages and flourished after the apparitions at Lourdes, Rue du Bac, and Fatima. But its roots run deep in tradition and are evident in the writings of the Fathers and the texts of the ancient liturgies. This paper begins by discussing early-Christian exegesis of Luke 2:35 and other key biblical texts. It proceeds to examine the various ways in which the Fathers spoke of Mary’s heart, and considers these in light of recent research on the earliest devotion to the Blessed Virgin. It concludes by evaluating Immaculate Heart devotion according to …

To Know Salvation: Marian Consecration As Antidote To New Gnosticisms, Maura Hearden Fehlner
To Know Salvation: Marian Consecration As Antidote To New Gnosticisms, Maura Hearden Fehlner
Marian Studies
In this essay, the author initiates a discussion about key ways in which the theology behind and practice of Marian consecration as developed by St. Louis de Montfort both refutes the errors of and fulfills the longing indicated by the emergence of strong gnostic currents in contemporary thought. To accommodate the parameters of this project, discussion is limited to three categories of “new Gnosticisms”—political, New Age, and technological—and key theological concepts.
Theological Foundations For Devotion To The Hearts Of Jesus And Mary According To St. John Eudes (1601-1680), Robert Fastiggi
Theological Foundations For Devotion To The Hearts Of Jesus And Mary According To St. John Eudes (1601-1680), Robert Fastiggi
Marian Studies
St. John Eudes united devotion to Mary with devotion to her Son, Jesus Christ. For Eudes, the hearts of Jesus and Mary are inseparable. He recognized that the union of their two hearts is the most intimate union that ever existed. The heart of Jesus dwells in his Mother’s heart, forming a perfect union of the two hearts as one mystical heart. Eudes promoted the Feast of the Admirable Heart of Mary and the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in order to express the mystical union of the two hearts.

Mary, Mother And Model For Family Life In The Thought Of Chiara Lubich And The Experience Of The Focolare Movement, Edward L. Looney
Mary, Mother And Model For Family Life In The Thought Of Chiara Lubich And The Experience Of The Focolare Movement, Edward L. Looney
Marian Studies
Flourishing in the Church prior to and following the Second Vatican Council were ecclesial movements such as Focolare, Communion and Liberation, and Schoenstatt. Founded by charismatic leaders, a particular characteristic of each is their unique expression of Marian devotion. Chiara Lubich, foundress of the Focolare Movement, recognized Mary as the Mother and Model of the movement, and encouraged members to become repetitions of Mary in the world. The writings of Lubich lend themselves to the discovery of a familial spirituality, applicable to members and non-members of the movement alike. Elements of the derived familial spirituality include: imitation of the Holy …
