ESBVM

Why in Oxford, of all places, should there be no active branch of the Ecumenical Society of the Blessed Virgin Mary? So Jill Pinnock and I are having a go at revival: on Thursday May 8, in Pusey House at 7.30, Stratford and Leonie Caldecott will talk on Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary in the poetry of G K Chesterton and G M Hopkins.
Can readers suggest what might be suitable topics for such a group to engage with?

Some things which spring to mind:

The beginnings of devotion to Our Lady

Marian shrines

Hymns to Our Lady, their content, development and use

Modern depictions of Our Lady

Mary in Islam
