"Mary's Assumption" is a profound theological exploration of one of the most significant doctrines in the Catholic tradition. Written by Raphael V. O'Connell, this work delves into the scriptural, patristic, and liturgical evidence supporting the belief in Mary's bodily assumption into heaven. The author provides a systematic examination of the historical development of this belief, tracing its roots through the early Church Fathers and the evolution of the feast in the liturgical calendar.

This scholarly yet accessible treatise addresses the theological implications of the Assumption, positioning it within the broader context of Mariology and its relation to the central mysteries of the Christian faith. By analyzing the tradition and the consensus of the faithful, O'Connell offers readers a comprehensive understanding of the spiritual and dogmatic importance of this event. The book serves as a valuable resource for students of theology, clergy, and anyone interested in the deepening of Marian devotion and the study of historical Christian doctrine.
