Devoção Mariana no Arciprestado de Guimarães e Vizela no século XX

: romarias, peregrinações e devoções marianas do povo do Arciprestado de Guimarães e Vizela

Abstract

The present work focuses mainly on the devotion of to Our Lady in the Archpriestship of Guimarães and Vizela, specifically in the 20th century. However, so that there is a contextualization of the 20th century, the main messages of the 20th century pontiffs about Our Lady are presented. In a second point, based on the ways of shepherding of the Archbishops of Braga, we understand a little about the social context of Portugal and how Marian devotions had particular relevance in troubled moments of our world and national history. It is in this way that we move towards the most concrete point of this work, which are the Marian devotions in the Archpriestship of Guimarães and Vizela, where we cannot overlook great pilgrimages and pilgrimages such as: Our Lady from Oliveira, Our Lady from Lapinha and Our Lady from Penha. However, we could not stop ourselves from the great pilgrimages and we thought it was good to enter the parishes of the Arciprestado to make a comparison of the Marian devotions existing at the beginning of the 20th century and at the beginning of the 21st century.
