Maryology
Maryology is the theological study of Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ. It explores her role in Christianity, her virtues, and her significance in the life of believers. This field examines doctrines such as the Immaculate Conception, which teaches that Mary was conceived without original sin, and her perpetual virginity.
Maryology also addresses Mary's titles, such as Mother of God and Queen of Heaven. It highlights her intercessory role, where many Christians believe she can pray on their behalf. This study is particularly prominent in Catholicism and Orthodox Christianity, where Mary is venerated and honored in various ways.
