Marian cults and apparitions in Latin America  

Definición

  • Since the final decades of the 20th century, there has been an expressive proliferation of Marian manifestations in Catholic countries, especially in Latin America. They contain the structural patterns of older European phenomena recognized by the Church, such as messages, supernatural visions, and sanctuary building, but they also have new elements relating to their local and national contexts, characteristics of contemporary globalized Catholicism and the visionaries’ performance.
