This article seeks to demonstrate a Mariological Language in the thought of Athanasiuns of Alexandria. It intends to realize the sources used by Athanasius, the term Theotokos that found the foundation in the canonical gospels, and the aspects that contributed to present the figure of Mary as an ascetic model in the fourth century. Finally, this article seeks to know how a portrait of the Virgin was been configured as a disciplinary archetype for Christians in general and for the group of Christian virgins within the Athanasian interest and the ascetical itinerary.Downloads
