  Fulgores inmaculistas del Carmelo
By Rafael María López Melús, O. Carm.

In honor of the 150th anniversary of the definition of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, Fr. Melús first takes the reader on a brief and general survey of the dogma. He then spends the remaining 22 chapters on a detailed study of the Immaculate Conception in Carmel, its place in Carmelite liturgy, the writings of its saints and near saints, and even the controversies about it within the Order over the centuries.
