The Mystery of Mary (Revised Edition)
Paul Haffner
In this book, the author offers a clear and structured overview of theology and doctrine
concerning Mary set in a historical perspective. He outlines the basic scheme of
what constitutes Mariology set in the context of other forms of theological enquiry,
and working through the contribution of Holy Scripture he proceeds to examine each
of the fundamental doctrines that the Church teaches about Our Lady. From the Immaculate
Conception to Mary’s continuing Motherhood in the Church as Mediatrix of all graces,
the reader will find here a sure and steady guide, faithful to tradition and offering
a realist perspective, not reducing the concrete aspects of Mary’s gifts and privileges
to mere symbols on the one hand, and not confusing doctrine and devotionalism on
the other.
