Abstract
"El artículo presenta la piedad popular mariana y la dogmática católica alrededor de la figura de la Virgen María y demuestra como esta se constituye, elabora, reelabora y evoluciona, a partir de la literatura apócrifa. El Protoevangelio de Santiago juega un papel determinante, no sólo por ser casi seguramente el primero de estos textos, sino porque contesta con mucha coherencia a los interrogantes que corrían alrededor de la figura de María de Nazaret. Hay una contradicción en la postura oficial de la Iglesia: de un lado se rechazan como apócrifos, es decir como no-revelados, los textos que recogen las leyendas marianas… pero, de otro lado, se declaran como dogmas. Abstract This article presents popular Marian piety and Catholic dogma concerning the figure of the Virgin Mary and shows how these have been constructed, elaborated, reelaborated and develop, through apocryphal literature. The Protoevangelium of James plays a critical role, not only because it is almost certainly the first of these texts, but also because it answers with considerable cogency the questions that circulated about the figure of Mary of Nazareth. There is a contradiction in the official posture of the Church: on the one hand, the texts that contain the Marian legends are rejected as apocryphal, i.e., non-revelatory ... while, on the other hand, their content is proclaimed as dogmas."
