Mariology is an investigation of the Church's Marian doctrine with discussion of the elements furnished by Sacred Scripture and Tradition regarding the Virgin Mary, the Mother of God, and the Mother of the Church. A study of Mary's cooperation in the establishment of the Covenant; the truth of her perpetual virginity as inseparable from her divine motherhood; her collaboration in the order of grace; her Immaculate Conception and Assumption; and her place in ecumenical dialogue. Also to be considered are other pious traditions and their relationship to the ecclesial community.
