Criar um novo corpo, produzi-lo e in-carná-lo – dotá-lo de consistência intensa e conceitual, de carne, ossos e fluídos. Lugares de uma jornada empreendida via uma nova cartografia, uma vez que a qualidade de um corpo que não se limita ao que se toma pela realidade. Procura por veículos que auxiliem a passagem da carne a um novo corpo, já que esta é uma tarefa que demanda um trabalho individual, onde se empreende uma jornada sob o pretexto do desejo, uma peregrinação para a Personagem Conceitual, O Peregrino, que o discursa . Difícil encaixar em discursos e palavras de ordem, a produção do Corpo In-carnato passa pelo conceito. E a fundamentação do pensar passa pela produção dos próprios conceitos e suas especificidades, num colóquio entre tantos correspondentes inventados, cujo texto se fabula num formato epistolar como maneira de deixar os rastros do caminho e sua pesquisa aparentes. Neste trajeto, acompanham autores da Diferença como Deleuze, Guattari, Nietzsche, assim como o alimento das artes, atuante na liberação de novos corpos e humores que nutre, uma vez que tais corpos estarão sempre e plenamente ligados à vida. Seus liames afetam, esgotam e sucedem novos agenciamentos possíveis. E se o corpo é o plano de imanência por excelência, a vida e suas diferenças serão os possíveis da filosofia. Uma vida que se quer vivida passa por caminhos, rotas e lugares, Mas também pelo vazio, cujo esgotamento lhe retornará em novos corpos e espaços compossíveis. / Create a new body, prodcuting and in-carnate it – giving it the intense and conceptual consistence, with flesh, bones and fluids. Places of a journey made trough a new cartography, once the quality of a body it’s not limitated from what is taken as reality. It searches for vehicles that may help the passage from the flesh to the new body, since it is a duty wich demands an individual work, where a journey is made over the forces of the desire, a peregrination to the Conceptual Personage, The Pilgrim, whose discurse it. Hard to incase in speeches and words of order, the production of the In-carnato body passes through the concept. And the embasement from this way of thinking passes trhough the concepts and it’s especifications themselves, in a dialogue between many invented correspondents, whose the text fabulate it self at an epistolar shape, as a way to allow the tracks from the path and the reserach maight be visible. In this passage, authors from the Diference’s Philosophy walk with him, as Deleuze, Guattari, Nietzsche, just like the art’s food, acting on the liberation of new bodies and humors that it nourishes, once these bodies will be always conected to life. Its lines afects, deplete and succeed new possible experiences. And, if the body is the Imanence Plane par exellence, the life and its diferences will be the possibles from the philosophy. A life wich is desired lived well passes trough ways, pahts and places. But also trough the emptiness, where the depleting will return in new compossible bodies and spaces.

Thesis (M.A.)--Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, 1997. / Abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 114-138).

This thesis considers the relation of similarity and difference in the comparative study of religion, by examining the doctrines of avatara and incarnation. These doctrines are first considered using a comparative approach, summarizing some of the research that has been done in the general area of avatara and incarnation. A more systematic approach follows, examining the understanding of incarnation in the work of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Sri Aurobindo. The focus is on the differences between these two thinkers, especially in terms of particularity and universality and in terms of the purpose of incarnation. Similarity arises, though, as both Aurobindo and Bonhoeffer move from the presence of God in humanity to a sense of solidarity with humanity. Aurobindos understanding and Bonhoeffers understanding result in the view that the Divine is present in the world. This breaking down of the duality between God and the world heightens the sense of solidarity in each thinkers work, as each one speaks of the presence of Christ or the Divine in the community and in the neighbour. <p>This study demonstrates the interplay between similarity and difference in the comparative study of religion. Beginning with the seemingly similar ideas of avatara and incarnation, it then focuses on the difference between these ideas, returning to similarity as the notion of solidarity is introduced. In the similarity and difference between avatara and incarnation, solidarity itself appears to have a mediating role. It allows for the claim that there is common ground to begin with, and when differences are discovered or brought together, solidarity with the other keeps difference from becoming division.
