Summary/Abstract: After successfully overcoming the post-council crisis, Mariology is unanimously perceived as the „meeting discipline“ of various theological tracts, as „relationship discipline“, and „space for synthesis.“ If the words of the document of the International Papal Marian Academy (The Mother of the Lord, heritage, presence, hope of 2000, p. 22) retain their force, the Blessed Virgin is not only a peripheral element of Christian mystery or the marginal entry of faith and theology. The mystery of Mary studied by mariology conceals the potential to revive theology (both methodologically and in terms of content) as well as new-evangelistic ecclesiastical proclamation. The article attempts to reveal the ability of mariology to communicate fruitfully with postmodern theology, analyzed by the fundamental theologian E. Salamann.
