Our Lady of Guadalupe is the most popular Marian apparition tradition in the Americas-indeed in all of Roman Catholicism-and the only one that has inspired a sustained series of published theological analyses. Theologies of Guadalupe explores the way theologians have understood Our Lady of Guadalupe and sought to assess and foster her impact on the lives of her devotees since the seventeenth century. It also examines how the Guadalupe cult rose above allothers in colonial Mexico and was transformed from a local devotion into a regional, national, and then international phenomenon.
