<p>The Subtle Doctor, as Scotus is called, presents a model of Mary the mother of Jesus as the fullest image of the living person. She represents who we are meant to be. She is the fullest humanity of all human beings, man or woman. Allan B. Wolter, O.F.M. is one of the foremost authorities on and translators of Scotus writings. He, together with Blane O Neill, O.F.M., clearly lay out in this book Scotus argument for preventive redemption whereby the Immaculate Conception of Mary represents the masterwork of Christ's redemption.</p>

<p>This small book offers, in a Latin/English edition, a contribution of John duns Scotus to the theological discussion on Mary the Mother of God. Controversial in the late thirteenth century, Scotus's "new theology" grapples with issues surrounding The Predestination of the Mother of God. His views had a profound influence on Marian doctrine and devotion over the centuries, culminating in the dogmatic proclamation by Pope Pius IX in 1854 of Mary's Immaculate Conception. the questions are dealt with in the Ordinatio of Scotus and are set up in the stylized tripartite format used by medieval professional theologians in their commentaries on the Sencetnecs of Peter Lombard.</p>
