In the condition of exceeding population, they face obstacles to the development of their intellectual, biological and cultural capabilities; to the fairness in guaranteeing civil, political and social rights; to the quality of life in harmony and well-being, aim of human beings and to the utter fulfillment of their citizenship. The Methodist Community of Street People - CMPR has found its space at the beginning of the 1990s, while the Town Hall of São Paulo, in the turn of Mayor Luiza Erundina, promoted through the Social Well Being Municipal Office, the census to know who was, how was living and how the street population in the city of São Paulo was perceived. In this context, the Korean Ebenezer Methodist Church every Sunday offered assistance to the population serving bread, coffee and milk, and chocolate milk in the region of Dom Pedro II Park. It was established the partnership for the creation of CMPR through the awakening of public power and the participation of the Korean Methodist Church through the Korean Cafe. It was fundamental the willingness of Bishops Nelson Campos Leite and Geoval Jacinto da Silva, both from the Third Ecclesiastical Region of the Methodist Church, who started the work using the institution of philanthropic nature of the Methodist Church, the AMAS Social Assistance Methodist Association. Thus, with headquarters in Bridge Pedroso and due to geographical proximity, the CMPR linked itself to the AMAS from the Methodist Cathedral of São Paulo, acting in three dimensions: (1) creation of Co-Existence House, (2) Sheltering in the winter period; (3) Creation of the Hostel. The Action Plan designed by CMPR that consolidated the creation of the Hostel, dates from the transition 1994/95 and it had as its basis the Social Creed, the Plan for the Life and Mission of the Methodist Church and the Action Plan forwarded to the City Hall, in the light of the social aspect of the Methodist movement from John Wesley, establishing that the overall goal of CMPR would be the redemption of the citizenship of the people who constitute the street people. In this dimension, the thesis is structured into five chapters, included field research that has been conducted with employees and former employees of CMPR, with the objective of gathering contents to analyse the pastoral actions of the CMPR from the perspective of religious praxis, considering the philosophical and educational.(AU) / A população em situação de rua é um fenômeno urbano, agravado na contemporaneidade por fatores de ordem social, econômica, cultural que agrupa pessoas independentemente da idade, etnia, grau de instrução e gênero, em situação de exclusão social, impedidos à renda e suprimento de suas necessidades vitais, culturais e sociais. Na condição de população sobrante, enfrenta obstáculos ao desenvolvimento de suas capacidades intelectuais, biológicas e culturais; à equidade de garantia de direitos civis, políticos e sociais; à qualidade de vida em harmonia e bem-estar objetivo dos seres humanos; e ao exercício pleno de sua cidadania. A Comunidade Metodista do Povo de Rua - CMPR encontrou o seu espaço no início da década de noventa, ao tempo em que a Prefeitura Municipal de São Paulo, na Legislatura da Prefeita Luíza Erundina, promoveu, através da Secretaria Municipal de Bem-Estar social, o censo para conhecer quem era, como vivia e como era vista a população de rua na cidade de São Paulo. Neste contexto, a Igreja Metodista Coreana Ebenezer oferecia à população uma assistência dominical servindo pão, café com leite e achocolatado na região do Parque Dom Pedro II. Sagrou-se a parceria para a criação da CMPR através do despertar do poder público e da participação da Igreja Metodista Coreana através do Café do Coreano. Foi fundamental a disposição dos Bispos Nelson Campos Leite e Geoval Jacinto da Silva, ambos da Terceira Região Eclesiástica da Igreja Metodista, que iniciaram os trabalhos utilizando a instituição de caráter filantrópico da Igreja Metodista, a AMAS Associação Metodista de Assistência Social. Assim, com sede no Viaduto Pedroso e, por proximidade geográfica, a CMPR vinculou-se a AMAS da Catedral Metodista de São Paulo, atuando em três dimensões: (1) criação da Casa de Convivência, (2) abrigamento no período do inverno; (3) Criação do albergue. O Plano de Ação elaborado pela CMPR que consagrou a criação do Albergue, data da transição 1994/95 e teve como base o Credo Social, o Plano para Vida e Missão da Igreja Metodista e o Plano de Ação encaminhado à Prefeitura, à luz da vertente social do movimento Metodista a partir de João Wesley, estabelecendo que o objetivo geral da CMPR fosse o resgate da cidadania das pessoas que constituem a população de rua. Nesta dimensão, a tese está estruturada em cinco capítulos, inclusa pesquisa de campo que foi aplicada a funcionários e ex-funcionários da CMPR, com objetivo de reunir conteúdos para se analisar as ações pastorais da CMPR na perspectiva da Práxis religiosa, considerando a Práxis filosófica e educacional, a fim de perceber se as ações pastorais são ações criadoras, reflexivas, libertadoras e radicais, e se promovem por meio da CMPR o resgate da cidadania em população de rua na cidade de São Paulo.(AU)

La problématique de cette thèse est centrée sur une réflexion approfondie entre l’expression musicale d’une confession de foi catholique exposée et défendue par Almeida Prado et l’appréhension suscitée par une démarche que tout chercheur doit entreprendre à condition qu’il respecte le contexte brésilien fondé essentiellement sur le multiculturalisme.En ce sens, le répertoire choisi comprend Le Rosaire de Medjugorje, Les Chorals, Les Louanges Sonores et Les Prophéties. Ces quatre recueils ont fait l’objet d’un travail de recherche qui, au niveau de la méthode, s’est attaché à la mise en œuvre d’une minutieuse vérification de la présence de textes religieux. Ces derniers ont été référencés à partir des œuvres citées et ils ont été mêlés à une autre problématique, celle de l’analyse musicale, à condition que cette discipline participe pleinement au décryptage du sens religieux qu’il faut accorder aux œuvres composées par Almeida Prado.Six catégories musicales au service d’une organisation d’articulations poétiques ont été dégagées à partir de : la thématique, la succession de gestes pianistiques, la répétitivité, la juxtaposition des idées, la résonance, la réflexion sur le timbre. Cette hypothèse de lecture s’est confrontée à la réalité de quatre éléments déduits du contenu religieux et axés sur un appel à des sources puisées dans la bible, la théologie catholique, la religiosité populaire brésilienne, la dévotion personnelle d’Almeida Prado. Cette recherche ne saurait perdre de vue le contexte brésilien où le syncrétisme religieux accompagne le métissage culturel. Cette donnée si importante a largement contribué à l’orientation de cette thèse. / The problems of this thesis are centered on a cogitation deepened between the musical expression of a confession of Catholic creed displayed and defended by Almeida Prado and the apprehension provoked by a step which every researcher must undertake provided that he respects the Brazilian context principally on the multiculturalism.In the sense, the chosen directory consists of The Rosary of Medjugorje, Chorales, Sound Commendations and Prophecies. These four collections made the object of a research work which, at the level of method, became attached to the implementation of a detailed check on the presence of religious texts. These last were classified were classified from named writings and they were blended with another problems, that of the musical analysis, provided that this discipline participates entirely in the deciphering of the religious sense which it is necessary to grant in writings composed by Almeida Prado.Six musical categories in the service of an organization of poetic pronunciations were cleared from: themes, succession of piano gestures, repetitiveness, the juxtaposition of ideas, resonance, cogitation on the stamp. This hypothesis of reading was confronted with the reality of four elements deducted from religious contents and centered on a call to sources scooped out from the Bible, Catholic theology, religious inclination popular Brazilian, the personal devotion of Almeida Prado. This research would not know how to lose Brazilian context of view where religious syncretism accompanies cultural interbreeding. These so important data broadly contributed to the orientation of this thesis.

It is also based on the theoretical notions of Discourse Analysis, derived from the French branch. Its subject is the study of discursive representations of cultural aspects shown by the pantaneiro - the men from Pantanal area in Mato Grosso do Sul State. The general goal is to contribute for Discourse studies in the Brazilian culture, analyzing its verbal expressions present in lyrics from South-Pantanal regional songs, from a basic text plus insertion of inter-texts and inter-discourses. In this sense, the methodological procedure consists in selecting and analyzing as a whole, local music lyrics, texts from History, Geography and Ethnography Discourses as well as interviews carried out with composers. The hypothesis that supports this research considers that the analytical categories - Discourse, Society and Cognition - extend themselves to the analysis of mental and linguistic representations while evaluative knowledge and cultural creeds; it also considers that the Come and Go migrations over large geographic areas guide the initiatives of the South-Pantanal man. Both hypothesis show to be convenient, since the evaluative knowledge forms are creeds imprinted in the social cognition, the cultural traits that dynamically guide, from historical roots, the building of new meanings in each contemporary period. The results from these analyses show that: 1. The lyrical inter-texts show themselves to be more suitable for handling regional culture values and, although the approached subjects are the same, because of serving different goals, the inter-discourses are diversified. 2. The History discourse originates from official documents, which bring in a linguistic form, the interests of Power; the Historiography handles with several different types of documents besides the official ones, and for this reason, they represent the facts focused on some cultural aspects. 3. The Geography discourse indicates that the semantic progression, derived from scientific discoveries in the Pantanal area in South Mato Grosso is opposed to regional traditional cultural knowledge, which is explicit in the lyrics inter-texts analyzed. 4. The ethnographic discourse approaches South-Pantanal culture, complements or opposes certain representations of it / Fundamenta-se esta tese na vertente sócio-cognitiva da Análise Crítica do Discurso da qual van Dijk, desde 1988, é seu representante e em noções teóricas da Análise do Discurso de linha francesa, tendo por tema um exame de representações discursivas de aspectos culturais do homem pantaneiro sul-mato-grosssense. O objetivo geral é contribuir com os estudos discursivos da cultura brasileira e os objetivos específicos são de examinar por meio de expressões verbais presentes em textos lingüísticos, letras musicais sul-pantaneiras a partir de um texto-base e pela inserção de intertextos e interdiscursos. Nesse sentido, o procedimento metodológico consiste em selecionar e analisar como corpora, letras de músicas regionais, textos do discurso da História, da Geografia e da Etnografia e entrevistas realizadas pela pesquisadora com os compositores. A hipótese que sustenta essa pesquisa considera que as categorias analíticas: Discurso, Sociedade e Cognição, estendem-se para a análise das representações mentais e lingüísticas enquanto organização de conhecimentos avaliativos e crenças culturais e que o movimento de Ir e Vir por grandes extensões geográficas, guia as ações do homem sul pantaneiro. Ambas as hipóteses mostram-se adequadas, pois, as formas de conhecimentos avaliativos são crenças que caracterizam na cognição social, os traços culturais que guiam dinamicamente, a construção de novas significações em cada contemporaneidade, a partir de raízes históricas. Os resultados obtidos das análises indicam que: 1. Os intertextos musicais mostram-se mais adequados para o tratamento dos valores culturais regionais e embora os temas tratados sejam os mesmos, as formas de tratamento dadas pelos interdiscursos são diversificados na medida em que atendem a objetivos diferentes. 2. O discurso da História parte de documentos oficiais que trazem representados em língua, os interesses do Poder; já o discurso da Historiografia trata de diferentes tipos de documentos além dos oficiais e por essa razão representa os acontecimentos com focalização de alguns aspectos culturais. 3. O discurso da Geografia indica que a progressão semântica, decorrente das descobertas científicas da região do Pantanal do Sul de Mato Grosso é opositiva em relação aos conhecimentos regionais tradicionais culturais que estão explicitados nos intertextos analisados de musicas regionais. 4. O discurso da Etnografia que objetiva o tratamento da cultura, complementa ou se opõe a certas representações de aspectos culturais da região sul-pantaneira

Kritiken och verkligheten söker utröna skillnader datorspelskritik och litteraturkritik emellan. Mina tankar rörande de två områdena kretsade till en början kring att litteraturkritiken tilläts röra sig mer fritt mellan olika kulturella sfärer medan datorspelskritiken mer hängav sig åt en yngre målgrupp utan referenser till andra kulturyttringar.   För att undersöka detta har jag gjort en diskuskursanalytisk undersökning efter van Dijks modell. Undersökningen inkluderar tolv analysenheter; tre böcker och tre spel. Varje verk har analyserats två gånger då jag analyserat recensioner från två olika tidningar (DN och SvD) för att komma än djupare i mina analyser kring hur aktuella böcker och spel behandlats. För att få spelen och böckerna något sånär jämförbara har jag ställt upp ett antal kriterier, där ett av de mer centrala är att samtliga verk har varit ett av de mest sålda verken ett givet år (2007-2009). Det är alltså "storsäljare" jag tittar på, i hopp om att de representerar de mest populära verken inom sitt fält.   För att göra denna undersökning och göra dessa jämförelser har jag utgått från Pierre Bourdieus begrepp "sociala fält" för att kunna bedöma när en recension lämnar sitt eget fält och äntrar ett annat. Detta begrepp är flexibelt så till vida att litteratur exempelvis kan anses vara ett fält, medan en nedskalning kan innebära att svensk feministlitteratur är ett annat, "mindre" fält. För att ytterligare närma mig kritikens, recensionens och värderingens värld har jag använt mig av Tomas Forser redogörelser och forskning kring vad dessa begrepp innebär. Jag har plockat ut ett antal, för uppsatsen, intressanta termer ur hans forskning för att konkretisera vissa delar av min teoretiska ram. Mina föreställningar om att litteraturartiklarna skulle inkludera långt fler referenser till andra sociala fält stämde inte helt och hållet, då vissa datorspelsartiklar var fullproppade med desamma. Däremot kom jag fram till att samtliga böcker anses säga något om verkligheten eller samhället, medan datorspelen aldrig antogs göra det.

This dissertation presents a contribution to measure the church order and ecclesiastical law in the Nederduitsch Hervormde Church of Africa against the Presbyterial-synodal understanding of church government. The latter forms the canonical outline of Biblical Reformative Theology as an indication of the theology currently practiced in the Nederduitsch Hervormde Church of Africa. At the outset a historical overview is given on the origin and development of the Presbyterial-synodal church government that was mainly shaped by Calvin in Geneva and later elaborated upon in Paris, and then further developed in the Netherlands. Reference is also made to the Algemeen Reglement of 1816, the 1951 church order of the Nederlandse Hervormde Church, as well as the 1951 church order of the Nederduitsch Hervormde Church of Africa. A description is given of what is understood by Biblical Reformative Theology as a revelation theology, which objectively assesses man as a sinner redeemed by grace through Jesus Christ. In this regard the church is willed by God and exists in eschatological expectation when Jesus will be everything in everyone. An exposition of Presbyterial-synodal church government calls attention to the church's existence from the beginning of time, founded by God, and it is therefore of a covenantal nature. Offices are seen as gifts from God to mankind to bring those who had been saved by Jesus Christ to faith in Him. Office bearers gather together in an assembly of offices to govern the church according to the Word of God. The church is a confessing church who confesses its faith with the church of all ages, as summarized in the ecumenical creeds and the three formularies of unity. Reference is also made here to the sacraments, ceremonies, church festivals and days of remembrance. The chapter concludes with a reference to church discipline as well as the relationship between church and state. Finally the church order and ecclesiastical law in the Nederduitsch Hervormde Church of Africa is measured against the previous definition of the Presbyterial-synodal understanding of church government. / Thesis (PhD (Theology))--University of Pretoria, 2006. / Church History and Church Policy / unrestricted
