In this sense, Reception History was an important tool in this analysis, along with a dialogue with some distinguished authors who privilege this gender in their works. A review of the works of Bourdieu, Geertz, Berger, and Foucault among other social thinkers was necessary to accomplish a more vivid portrait of the social interactions experienced in the research, as well as the religious foundation of their relations, considering that their ideas allowed us to make an in-depth study of the social constructions that prevail in them. This kind of reflection let a large result concerning father Ibiana’s letters, the sisters’ of charity ones, the statute ruling the Charity Houses, the poems of the charity sisters published in the Voz da Religião no Cariri newspaper, and the moral maxima written down by father Ibiapina. All considered, we are sure that these core issues granted a better comprehension of what happens among the members of the group and between them and their counterparts. / Esta tese teve como intuito analisar as relações socioculturais existentes nas Casas de Caridade do Padre Ibiapina que contribuíram para sua obra social, dando ênfase à figura de Maria nos moldes da Mariologia Clássica. Para tanto, foram utilizadas como ferramentas de análise as reflexões trazidas pela história da recepção em diálogo com alguns autores que trazem o gênero como categoria analítica. Contudo, para um maior aprofundamento das interações sociais vivenciadas pelo grupo em estudo e, sobretudo, da religiosidade que embasa as suas relações, foi feita uma retomada dos estudos de, dentre outros autores, Bourdieu, Geertz, Berge e Foucault, tendo em vista que, a partir destes, foi possível estudar com profundidade a tessitura das construções sociais ali predominantes. Tal reflexão se deu em constante recorrência às cartas do Padre Ibiapina, das Irmãs de Caridade e dos beatos, ao estatuto que regia as Casas de Caridade do Padre Ibiapina, aos versos compostos pelas Irmãs de Caridade presentes no jornal Voz da Religião no Cariri, às máximas morais escritas pelo Padre Ibiapina, com um estudo voltado para a cultura brasileira e, especialmente, a nordestina, bem como a visão de Maria enquanto alvo de devoção e modelo de santidade, por serem estes pontos basilares para a garantia da compreensão do grupo em questão.

A Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia de Fortaleza: acolhimento de enfermos e educaÃÃo para a saÃde pÃblica (1861-1889) / The Holy House of Mercy of Fortaleza: nursing and education for public health (1861-1889)

Luciana de Moura Ferreira 06 June 2017 (has links)
FundaÃÃo Cearense de Apoio ao Desenvolvimento Cientifico e TecnolÃgico / A InstituiÃÃo da Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia nasceu em Portugal, no sÃculo XV, inicialmente fundada por leigos e por um frade TrinitÃrio, tinha como objetivo fornecer auxÃlio material e espiritual aos necessitados. Mais tarde durante a colonizaÃÃo portuguesa no Brasil, o modelo da irmandade da Santa Casa foi adotado como instrumento de difusÃo do poder de Portugal em relaÃÃo ao Brasil. Essas instituiÃÃes eram regidas pela igreja catÃlica que recebia verbas para a manutenÃÃo de hospitais e Ãs MisericÃrdias. Portanto, com essa tese nos propomos discutir a ideologia e o modelo educacional da instituiÃÃo da Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia no Brasil, destacando especialmente a MisericÃrdia de Fortaleza. Afinal, enquanto esse modelo de instituiÃÃo assistencialista educacional foi implantado no Brasil durante o perÃodo colonial, a MisericÃrdia de Fortaleza, foi fundada durante o perÃodo imperial (1861), e seguiu caminhos educacionais assistencialistas diversos dos modelos implantados durante o perÃodo colonial. Levando em consideraÃÃo que na segunda metade do sÃculo XIX, o Cearà foi atingido por secas e epidemias que elevavam a carÃncia social, torna-se necessÃrio compreender a aÃÃo educacional promovida por essa instituiÃÃo sobre o corpo e alma dos habitantes na cidade de Fortaleza-CE. Finalmente nessa tese nos propomos analisar o processo de formaÃÃo de uma mentalidade de assistÃncia mÃdico hospitalar, na cidade de Fortaleza, na passagem do sÃculo XIX para o sÃculo XX, buscando compreender como a Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia de Fortaleza aliava a caridade presente na constituiÃÃo dessa instituiÃÃo com os saberes mÃdicos vigentes no perÃodo em estudo. Chamamos atenÃÃo para o processo de medicalizaÃÃo, que se instaurou na Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia, criando assim uma relaÃÃo entre caridade e prÃtica mÃdica. Para tal, analisamos as especificidades da assistÃncia hospitalar no CearÃ, bem como os indÃcios de cuidados mÃdicos com os desvalidos, tendo como foco analisar a cidade de Fortaleza, no perÃodo final do ImpÃrio e primeiros anos da- RepÃblica. Enfim, merece destaque o papel da caridade no percurso de formaÃÃo da assistÃncia hospitalar no CearÃ. / The Institution of the Holy House of Mercy was born in Portugal in the fifteenth century, initially founded by lay people and a Trinitarian friar, aimed at providing material and spiritual help to those in need. Later during the Portuguese colonization in Brazil, the model of the Santa Casa brotherhood was adopted as an instrument of diffusion of the power of Portugal in relation to Brazil. These institutions were governed by the Catholic church that received funds for the maintenance of hospitals and the MisericÃrdias. Therefore, with this thesis we propose to discuss the ideology and educational model of the institution of Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia in Brazil, especially highlighting MisericÃrdia de Fortaleza. After all, while this model of educational welfare institution was implanted in Brazil during the colonial period, MisericÃrdia de Fortaleza was founded during the imperial period (1861), and followed educational paths of assistance different from the models implanted during the colonial period. Taking into account that in the second half of the nineteenth century, Cearà was hit by droughts and epidemics that increased social deprivation, it becomes necessary to understand the educational action promoted by this institution on the body and soul of the inhabitants in the city of Fortaleza-CE. Finally, in this thesis we propose to analyze the process of forming a hospital medical care mentality, in the city of Fortaleza, in the passage from the nineteenth century to the twentieth century, seeking to understand how the Holy House of Mercy in Fortaleza combined the charity present in the constitution of this Institution with the medical knowledge in force during the study period. We call attention to the process of medicalization, which was established in Santa Casa de MisericÃrdia, thus creating a relationship between charity and medical practice. To that end, we analyze the specificities of hospital care in CearÃ, as well as the indications of medical care with the underprivileged, focusing on the city of Fortaleza, in the final period of the Empire and the first years of the Republic. Finally, the article highlights the role of charity in the training course of hospital care in CearÃ.

No. of bitstreams: 1 NABIO VANUTT DA SILVA.pdf: 1585798 bytes, checksum: e9f022470d0d47904115d2e62be4994d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-02-27 / This Master's Thesis aims to analyze the Catalan doctrine, Arnaldo de Vilanova (1240- 1311) on the reform of the Medieval Church, in addition to understanding the contributions of the writings of Saint Francis of Assisi (1181-1226), the Holy Scriptures and the narrative of the Calabrian Abbot, Joaquim de Fiore (1135-1202) to the Arnaldian conception. The Catalan was a physicist of prestige, he took care of the health of kings and popes, besides collaborating for the development of Medieval Medicine when translating written for the Latin of Arab authors, such as: Avicenna (980-1037), Galeno (120-200 d . W). This character, despite being recognized in the clinical field, also wrote several religious works that impacted on Christianity in that period, including, supported by the Patristic of St. Augustine (AD 354-40), strongly criticized the Thomistic philosophy of St. Thomas Aquinas 1225-1274). In order to assimilate his proposal for the transformation of the ecclesiastical institution, some texts were selected: Discourse on the Tetragrammaton (1292), Confession of Barcelona (1305), Lesson of Narbonne (1305-1308), Treaty of Charity (1308), Reasoning of Avignon 1310). In the research, the intention was to elucidate in what form this questioning of the Christian Church, as well as to verify how Arnaldo de Vilanova used the works of other authors, as well as the biblical narrative to support his spiritual project. In this work, the research methodology used was the internal and external criticism of the Catalan documents. Thus, in this study it was verified that the proposal of Arnaldo de Vilanova was based on a reformulation of the clerical corpus, mainly of the Dominicans, "false doctors"; since there would be a religious renewal with the end of the corrupt Church, a new spiritual order being born, which would preach the virtue of charity, of humility. The physicist remained a conservative of Christian doctrine and believed to be in a prophetic-apocalyptic mission, in other words, it was necessary to save mankind before the coming of Antichrist. In this sense, although maintaining a vision of trust in the Church and respect for her and not for the Dominicans, some of her works were judged as heretical in the Court of Tarragona in 1316. / Esta dissertação tem por objetivo analisar a doutrina do catalão, Arnaldo de Vilanova (1240-1311) sobre a reforma da Igreja Medieval, além de compreender as contribuições dos escritos de São Francisco de Assis (1181? -1226), das Sagradas Escrituras e da narrativa do abade calabrês, Joaquim de Fiore (1135-1202) à concepção arnaldiana. O catalão era físico de prestígio, cuidou da saúde de reis e papas, além de colaborar para o desenvolvimento da Medicina Medieval ao traduzir escritos para o latim de autores árabes, tais como: Avicena (980-1037), Galeno (120 d.C.-200 d. C). Esse personagem, apesar de ser reconhecido no campo clínico, também escreveu diversas obras religiosas que impactaram a cristandade naquele período, inclusive, apoiado na Patrística de Santo Agostinho (354 d.C.-430 d.C.), criticou veemente a filosofia Tomista de São Tomás de Aquino (1225-1274). Para assimilar sua proposta de transformação da instituição eclesiástica, foram selecionados alguns textos: Discurso sobre o Tetragrammaton (1292), Confissão de Barcelona (1305), Lição de Narbona (1305-1308), Tratado da Caridade (1308), Raciocínio de Avinhão (1310). Na pesquisa, a intenção foi elucidar de que forma daria esse questionamento da Igreja Cristã, além de verificar como Arnaldo de Vilanova utilizou as obras de outros autores, como também a narrativa bíblica para embasar seu projeto espiritual. Nesse trabalho, a metodologia de pesquisa utilizada foi a crítica interna e externa dos documentos do catalão. Assim, nesse estudo foi verificado que a proposta de Arnaldo de Vilanova era pautada numa reformulação do corpus clerical, principalmente, dos dominicanos, “falsos doutores”; visto que, haveria uma renovação religiosa com o fim da Igreja corrupta, nascendo uma nova ordem espiritual, que pregaria a virtude da caridade, da humildade. O físico permaneceu como um conservador da doutrina cristã e acreditava estar numa missão profético-apocalíptica, ou seja, era preciso salvar a humanidade antes da vinda do Anticristo. Nesse sentido, apesar de manter uma visão de confiança na Igreja e respeito por ela e não pelos dominicanos, algumas de suas obras foram julgadas como heréticas no Tribunal de Tarragona em 1316.

Tweeting for a Cause: A Content Analysis of Successful Charitable Nonprofits' Publishing Strategies on Twitter

Hougaard, Shaela Annice 01 March 2017 (has links)
A study examining the content strategies within Twitter posts, from nine charitable nonprofit organizations was conducted. The content analysis was conducted to identify content strategies (relationship cultivation, solicitation, and stewardship) behind each Twitter post from these nine organizations, within a one-week period. The study also looked at levels of engagement on each tweet as well as interactivity from the organization. The results showed that these nine charitable nonprofit organizations were primarily using stewardship strategies and techniques in their posts. The study also found that relationship cultivation yielded higher levels of retweets and that the relationship cultivation and solicitation combination strategy received higher levels of likes, while the organizations lacked in interactivity (two-way communication). The results from this study add a level of Twitter analysis to the ongoing research of fundraising on social media, and provide questions for future research.

"By the Labors of Our Hands": An Analysis of Labor, Gender, and the Sisters of Charity in Kentucky and Ohio, 1812-1852

January 2019 (has links)
abstract: This dissertation focuses on the development of two communities of women religious beginning in the early nineteenth century: the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth, founded in 1812, and the Sisters of Charity of Cincinnati, who arrived in Ohio in 1829 and became a diocesan community in 1852. Although administratively separate, these two apostolic communities shared a charism of service to the poor in the tradition of St. Vincent de Paul. The history of these two communities demonstrates the overlapping worlds women religious inhabited: their personal faith, their community life, their place in the Catholic Church, and their place in the regions where they lived. These women were often met with admiration as they formed necessary social institutions such as schools, hospitals, and orphanages that provided services to all religious denominations. Sisters’ active engagement with their local communities defied anti-Catholic stereotypes at the time and created significant public roles for women. The skills needed to create and maintain successful social institutions demonstrate that these women were well-educated, largely self-sufficient, competent fundraisers, and well-liked by the Catholics and Protestants alike that they served. This dissertation argues for the importance of acknowledging and analyzing this tension: as celibate, educated women who used their skills for lifelong public service, the Sisters of Charity were clearly exceptional figures among nineteenth century women, though they did not challenge the gendered hierarchies of their church or American society. To further understand this tension, this dissertation utilizes several cases studies of conflicts between sisters and their superiors in each community to examine the extent of their influence in deciding their community’s current priorities and planning for the future. These case studies demonstrate that obedience did not have a fixed definition but is better understood instead as dynamic and situational between multiple locations and circumstances. These findings concerning gender, labor, institution and community building, and the growth of American Catholicism highlight the integral role that women and religion played in the antebellum era. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation History 2019

Le débat sur la prostitution à Londres, 1749-1802 / The debate on prostitution in London, 1749-1802

Bernos, Marlène 06 October 2011 (has links)
Le dix-huitième siècle est une période propice à l’essor du débat sur la prostitution à Londres.Parce que la politique répressive des autorités se révèle défaillante dans son combat en la matière, un grand débat se fait jour dès le milieu du siècle, dans l’espoir de trouver des recours plus adaptés à l’ampleur du phénomène. Cette thèse est consacrée à l’analyse chronologique de ce débat qui adopte, au fil de son évolution, une dynamique complexe. Créé à Londres en 1758, le Magdalen Hospital devient la première maison de charité pour prostituées repenties en Angleterre. Il est la concrétisation d’une vigoureuse croisade humanitaire menée par des réformateurs philanthropes, afin de porter secours aux nombreuses filles publiques de la ville. Soutenue par le discours sentimental, une politique de »victimisation » à l’égard de la prostituée est mise en place, avec des répercussions majeures sur son image : celle-ci a subi le « crime » de séduction, et c’est par nécessité économique,non par choix, qu’elle se prostitue. À partir des années 1780, on constate néanmoins un tournant sensible dans le débat. Le discours philanthropique semble s’essouffler et présage le retour d’une pensée plus radicale : celle qui rappelle le crime de la prostitution. Dans un contexte social agité, ce commerce est devenu un « mal national » auquel il faut s’attaquer avec plus de fermeté. Par-dessus tout, ce sont deux discours habituellement opposés, celui delà charité et celui de la répression, qui, au tournant du siècle, collaborent peu à peu afin de combattre le « fléau ». / The eighteenth century witnessed an intensifying debate on prostitution in London. Asrepressive state policies became a less effective counter to the burgeoning sex trade, agrowing debate starting in the middle of the century sought a more coherent response. Thisthesis offers a chronological analysis of the debate, which took on a complex dynamic overthe course of its development. Founded in London in 1758, the Magdalen Hospital becamethe first charity house in England for repentant prostitutes. It represented the concretization ofa vigorous humanitarian crusade spurred on by philanthropist reformers hoping to help thecity’s many « streetwalkers ». A new policy, rooted in sentimentalist discourse, whichmaintained the « victimization » of the prostitute, had major repercussions on her image: theprostitute was seen to have been subjected to the crime of « seduction », and it was financialnecessity, not choice, which had led her to prostitution. The 1780s, however, brought about anoticeable shift in the debate. As the philanthropic discourse ran out of steam, it presaged thereturn of a more radical line of thought, which evoked the « crime » of prostitution. At a timeof social turbulence, prostitution increasingly became seen as a « national evil », which neededto be attacked with greater firmness. Above all, it was these two normally opposed lines ofthought – that of charity and that of repression – which, at the turn of the century, tentativelyworked together to put an end to the « scourge » of prostitution.

Doing Dignity at the Grace Café: An Ethnographic Exploration of a Homeless Outreach Program

Glover, Courtney A 04 April 2008 (has links)
Homeless outreach programs vary widely in their approaches to client treatment. At the Grace Café, an organization that serves daily meals to people who are homeless, the concept of dignity is central to guest treatment. According to the café's ideology, the importance of providing food is secondary to serving with dignity. This research explores dignity as an ideal of client treatment at the Grace Café. Based on ethnographic research, this paper explores how dignity is communicated to volunteers, implemented in service, and challenged at the Grace Café.

The roles of intermediary agents in housing for the poor in Inonesia: three models of intervention

Lang, Heracles C., n/a January 2006 (has links)
This thesis addresses the issues faced by the urban poor in their efforts to gain housing in developing countries. It argues that participation in housing is a matter of governance, in which the Public, Private and Popular sectors interact, and Intermediary Agents (IA) are necessary to act as catalysts in this interaction. In Indonesia there are two major problems related to housing the urban poor. The first problem concerns the quantity of housing. The second problem concerns the quality of housing, infrastructure and the environment. The government usually addresses these problems through a project-based, sectoral approach that lacks community engagement and accountability. Intermediary Agents have assisted many of these housing projects. However, little research has been undertaken on their role in these housing projects, as well as in the informal housing process. This thesis examines the role of IAs in the housing process of four different communities: one community in a government-sponsored project and three communities in informal settlements. The findings showed that the IAs, in engaging with the four different communities, played different roles and have different values. The involvement of IAs in the housing process elucidates a fundamental issue. On one hand, the IAs offer a mechanism to assist communities in providing and improving access to housing, infrastructure and services. However, there are limitations to their role: they have not the capacity to improve security of land tenure for the residents, which is essential for sustainable housing development. Where there has been some recognition of residents' rights to occupy the land, there have been substantial gains in community engagement in investing and improving their living environment. The thesis demonstrates the importance of community participation and acknowledges stakeholder engagement and community empowerment are crucial, roles that are often dependent on the involvement of IAs. It also extended the research on movement and development IAs demonstrating that both functions are complementary and important in housing delivery and that there are five roles that these IAs could play depending on the housing situation. The thesis offers new approaches to housing delivery and policy in Indonesia by involving urban poor communities, as the beneficiaries of housing for the poor programs. The qualitative method of the research has not been able to provide a generalised conclusion, but the lessons learned are important not only for providing housing for the urban poor in Indonesia but also possibly to addressing housing problems in other Asian countries. This thesis addresses four areas of intervention in transposing skills for a more democratic approach in housing the poor. Within these areas the research proposes new models of engagement for relevant stakeholders in public, popular and private sectors involving Intermediary Agents. These models are underpinned by a set of basic principles to guide IA engagement. Lastly the thesis proposes three models for IAs involvements in the housing process.
