The inspiration of faith, a model for women, the subject of innumerable paintings, sculptures, pieces of music and churches, Mary is so entangled in our world that it is impossible to conceive of the history of Western culture and religion without her. Miri Rubin's Mother of God is a major work of cultural imagination. Mary's role in the Gospels itself is a relatively minor one, and yet in the centuries during which Christianity established itself she emerged as a powerful, strange and ungovernable force, endlessly remade and reimagined by wave after wave of devotees, ultimately becoming 'a sort of God', in ways that have made some Christians uneasy. Whether talking about the vast public festivals celebrating Mary that sweep up entire communities or the intense private agony of individual devotion, Rubin's book is a triumph of sympathy and intelligence. Throughout Christianity's journey from mysterious origins to global religion, Mary has been a profound presence in countless lives - Mother of God is the story of that presence and a book that raises profound questions about the human experience. 600 00 $a Mary, $c Blessed Virgin, Saint $x History of doctrines. 600 00 $a Mary, $c Blessed Virgin, Saint $x History. $x History. 600 00 $a Mary, $c Blessed Virgin, Saint $x Art 941 $a 11 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214013630.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019020244.0 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718085319.0 952 $l N2AX314 $d 20210728014941.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200303023600.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20100201083435.0 952 $l OSAX771 $d 20100120073657.0 952 $l PTAX572 $d 20100120073657.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20100108083437.0 952 $l UDAX314 $d 20100120073657.0 952 $l UTAX115 $d 20100201083435.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=18B129766C0411DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a 01 $b IOEInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
