Resumen
This chapter explores the reception of Mary Magdalene in Roman Catholicism within Ibero-American contexts, highlighting her evolving representation across cultures shaped by colonialism and local traditions. It examines how Mary Magdalene’s image—often constructed as a “repentant sinner” or a “devoted follower of Jesus”—intersects with themes of gender, sexuality, and redemption in the region. The chapter also analyzes her role in popular devotion, art, and liturgical practices, revealing how her figure has been reinterpreted to resonate with local religious expressions. Notably, the chapter highlights how queer communities have engaged her personage as a source of inspiration and counter-cultural icon. Ultimately, the chapter sheds light on the complex dynamics of faith, identity, and cultural adaptation in Ibero-American Roman Catholic traditions.
