Gabriel Maria Roschini, OSM (December 19, 1900 – September 12, 1977), was a Roman Catholic Italian priest and professor of Mariology, who published over 900 titles on the subject. During the pontificate of Pope Pius XII, he worked closely with the Vatican on Marian publications. In light of the encyclopedic accuracy of his work, Roschini is considered one of the top two Mariologists of the 20th century.[1]
His first major work, a four volume Mariology, Il Capolavoro di Dio, is judged to be the most comprehensive mariological presentation in the 20th century.[1] In reviwing the state of Mariology Juniper Carol, S.J. wrote that Roschini's work was the "best and most complete in its kind."[2] Several theologians called him "one of the most profound mariologists" and "irreplaceable".[3]
