• BACK TO THE EVENTS--INDEX

Life of Mary of Nazareth refers to fictional and scholarly narratives of events surrounding the life and biography of Mary of Nazareth.

Overview

Mary is a familiar presence in the Life of Jesus, but her relevance in Christian cult and theology has made her the protagonist of narratives of her own.

The first narratives of the life of Mary of Nazareth are offered by the cycles of frescoes on the walls of churches and monasteries, as well as by devotional narratives.

Then came the first novels, plays and movies on the subject. Most of these narratives are strictly devotional in purpose but we have also non-conformist portraits of Mary, notably, those offered by Ash, Godard, and Halter.
