Description: Gathering together fresh information from often neglected sources, including early liturgical texts and Dormition and Assumption apocrypha, Stephen Shoemaker explores the full story of the emergence and development of the Marian cult in the early Christian centuries, finding evidence that dates back to the latter half of the second century. Through extensive research, the author is able to provide a fascinating background to the hitherto inexplicable explosion of Marian devotion that historians and theologians have pondered for decades.

This is a wide-ranging study that challenges many conventional beliefs surrounding the subject of Mary, Mother of God.
