Sažetak
Half a century since the opening of the 2nd Vatican Council theologians still review the reception of the Council in the life of the Church. A certain progress can be noted in the field of Mariology and in the study of Marian devotion. However, the Council’s Mariology is not enough accepted in spirituality and devotion, and this unevenness is ascribed to the evident deficiency of Marian sermons.
Therefore, it seemed important to study the Marian sermons of fra Bonaventura Duda, a distinct Croatian theologian and preacher. From his rich opus, the most important Marian sermons are singled out according to the three year liturgical cycle and main Marian festivities. The sermons are compared to the basic directives of the Council’s Mariology: theological-Christological foundation, ecclesial frame and anthropological direction. The analysis shows
that fra Duda’s sermons thoroughly and perfectly correspond to the Council’s Mariology: they are based on God’s word, dogmatically accurately point to Christ, and present Mary as a model for imitation in faith and love, in her virginity and motherhood. In the final synthesis, Duda’s sermons are recognized as a good example of synthesis of the dogma and pastoral concern. They lead correctly to the Marian devotion designated by the Council’s reflection upon Mary, and by
Council’s recommendations, and as such the sermons are proposed as a positive example.
