During their annual convention in 2001 the German Mariological consortium/study group (Deutsche Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Mariologie) focused on John Paul II’s Mariology. The presentations highlighted the pope's Polish background, his association with the Marian consecration of Louis de Montfort, Mary's cooperation in the work of redemption, the interrelation of the pope’s image of Mary and of women, as well as Mary's role in the ecumenical dialogue. They are published in Mariologische Studien volume XVIII: Totus Tuus--Maria in Leben und Lehre Johannes Pauls II (Mary in the life and teachings of John Paul II).

The thirteen contributions are arranged in three categories. The first entitled Spiritual Background includes three talks:

1. Karol Wojtyła and Poland’s Marian Tradition by Joachim Schmiedl
2. The True Devotion to Jesus through Mary according to Louis Marie de Montfort by Anton Ziegenaus
3. The Influence of Louis Marie de Montfort (1673-1716) on John Paul II's Mariology by Gerda Riedl.

The second group of seven talks is headlined Mary in the Ministry of John Paul II:

1. John Paul II's Pastoral Visits to Christianity's Marian Shrines: cultural-scientific and theological analysis by Klaus Guth
2. Fatima in Life and Thought of John Paul II by Ursula Bleyenberg
3. The Systematic Aspect of Marian Consecration in Life and Teaching of John Paul II by Leo Cardinal Scheffczyk
4. Motherly Mediation by Manfred Hauke
