Summary/Abstract: In achieving the goal of honoring and promoting the mariological thought of St. Pr. Conf. Dumitru Stăniloae, one can notice a whole host of studies and articles focused on the subject. It can be observed, when compared with the style and language of other Romanian Orthodox dogmatic writings, that St. Father Confessor Dumitru Stăniloae even invents an expression through new terminology in theological discourse. This language, although it perfectly fits within the previous patristic discourse, is completely original. His Mariology is eminently Christological, managing to provide that balance in the presentation of ideas while maintaining the orthodoxy of the texts adapted to the speaking style of his time. His life was a life dedicated to serving God, alongside whom the Mother of God is ever-present. In any of his service activities, he displayed humility, piety, and unwavering trust in the Holy Trinity and in her who collaborated with divinity for the salvation of humankind.
