Abstract
In the article the author analyses Leon Lovrenčić’s Marian sermons, published in 1957 in the collection entitled Imakulata, by focusing on how they discuss apparitions of our Lady in Fatima, Fatima messages, and events related to them. The introductory part sketches the life and work of Leon Lovrenčić, while the central part of the article describes the collection of published sermons, Imakulata, and the notebook of the same title from which these sermons were taken over. This is followed by an account of essential characteristics of Lovrenčić’s sermons and an overview of his discourse on Fatima and Fatima events. In this last section the author also takes into account unpublished sermons from the notebook Imakulata that is preserved in the legacy of Leon Lovrenčić in the Franciscan monastery on Kaptol and from which published sermons have been taken over. At the end of the article, in conclusion, the author sketches a few characteristics of the analysed discourse on Our Lady of Fatima, Fatima, and Fatima events in Leon Lovrenčić’s sermons from the collection Imakulata.
