Benedict and Mary...

Or, since the Holy Father is surely a gentleman, ladies first, I have a question about Mary and Benedict.
In a Catholic News Service story reference is made to the Pope's evolving attitude toward the Blessed Mother
It's no secret that, as a theologian and bishop, Pope Benedict was not always comfortable with Marian devotion and claims of apparitions. But over the years he has widened his views, saying in 2002 that, "the older I am, the more important the mother of God is to me."
Can anyone suggest any reading on his "previous views"?
I'm not finding anything in a typically,
(for me,) half-brained search...
