Abstract Details

2021, Licentiate in Sacred Theology (S.T.L.), University of Dayton, International Marian Research Institute.
The purpose of this thesis is to examine the Mariology of St. Lawrence of Brindisi in order to show how he applied the psalms to Mary. It will be shown how he found the literal sense of the text important for understanding the mysteries of the faith. His sermons in the Mariale were not meant to be scholarly examinations, but Brindisi often went back to the Hebrew text to have the best possible meaning of what the sacred writer intended. Next, it will be shown how finding Mary in the psalms requires the use of the spiritual senses of Scripture. Then there will be shown a spirituality of the psalms with Mary as a model of the faithful and also an intercessor on their behalf. Finally, the psalms will show the way to heaven; and it is Mary who led the way by living a virtuous life. Now she aids the faithful in attaining the same goal.
