April 28, 2011 (Thurs.): Mary – in Music and Art

May 5, 2011 (Thurs.): Mary – in Music and Art
Marian art, architecture, and music is unique in the world. We will discuss various examples emphasizing the freedom leading musicians and artists to go beyond what is "factually" known about Mary.

May 12, 2011 (Thurs.): Mary – in Music and Art
Marian theology is especially interesting. How did Mary come to be known as the Mother of God? What is the Immaculate Conception? What does the Assumption of Mary into heaven signify? What is devotion to Mary?
