Description:Devotion to St. Joseph can be traced to the earliest centuries of the Eastern Church and to the tenth century in the Western Church. The devotion has flourished and gained impetus, not so much because of the refinements of theologians and the declarations of the magisterium of the Church, as through the piety of the faithful. Nevertheless, in recent times a specialized branch of theology has been gradually developing, a theology of St. Joseph which some call Josephology. Moreover, since Pope Pius IX wrote "Quemadmodum Deus" in 1870, several succeeding Pontiffs have praised devotion to St. Joseph and officially extended his patronage to the universal Church.Father Llamera has written an authoritative treatise on the theology of St. Joseph and as an expert theologian he has first taken great care to establish the dogmatic principles upon which the veneration of St. Joseph rests. After demonstrating that St. Joseph is really related to the hypostatic order because of his position as spouse of Mary and reputed father of Christ, Father Llamera proceeds from these theological foundations to discuss the virtues, special privileges, veneration and patronage of St. Joseph. This entire volume on St. Joseph is a most cautious and orthodox study. It breathes the same spirit as do the words of commendation which were written about St. Joseph by Pope Pius IX: "The Catholic Church rightly honors with its highest cultus and venerates with a deep feeling of reverence the illustrious patriarch blessed Joseph, now crowned with glory and honor in heaven, whom almighty God, in preference to all his saints, willed on earth to be the chaste and true spouse of the immaculate virgin Mary as well as the putative father of his only-begotten Son. He indeed enriched him and filled him to overflowing with entirely unique graces, enabling him to execute most faithfully the duties of so sublime a state."
