Description
Franciscans - both male and female - were responsible in a major way for the honor accorded to the Virgin Mary during the Middle Ages in textual and artistic sources. This session proposes to concentrate on different aspects of this neglected theme. Contributions will focus, for example, on aspects such as Mary as the primary resurrection witness, the Immaculate Conception and the Assumption.
