No. of bitstreams: 1 Rafaela Ferreira da Silva.pdf: 3761032 bytes, checksum: 4946ed62bf16edcdfb78d90ad9677244 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-04-09 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The present dissertation studies the process of ultramontane reform of the Brazilian Catholicism through the acting of the Discalced Carmelites of the Roman Province in the South of Minas Gerais State, specifically in the parishes of Cambui and Córrego do Bom Jesus, both belonging to the Diocese of Pouso Alegre, in the period from 1911 until 1922. The cutout temporal adopted is justified by the foundation of this mission in Córrego do Bom Jesus and Cambui in 1911 and goes until 1922 when the house of Cambuí is closed and the teresianos left the south of the Minas Gerais State. In this period of more than a decade, several interventions of the Discalced Carmelites are realized in these two communities and they are associated with the attempt of introduction of the directives of the ultramontane reform of the Church in Brazil, taking the present reformative project as a base in the new Diocese of PousoAlegre. Inserted in this new configuration of the Brazilian Catholicism, the teresianos will devote themselves the attempt of gradual substitution of a not much austere, festive, social, familiar religious practice and in a large extent lay for the Roman and reformed Catholicism which emphasis falls back on the sacraments. We intend to study the presence of the teresianos in these parishes considering as the relations between the imposed forms of the ultramontane Catholicism and the identities always reaffirmed by the present laymen in the rites and experts of the local religiosity. The main used fountains were extracted of the illustrated magazine of the Order of the Discalced Carmelites, Il Carmelo, of the book of conservation of these parishes, of the manuscript Appunti Storici della nostra missione nel Brasile, of the catholic newspaper Tribuna Sul Mineira, of the Collective Pastorals of 1911 and 1915, the book Actas y Decretos del Concilio Plenario de la América Latina and other documents found in the Archdiocese of Pouso Alegre, in the archive of the Province São José of the Discalced Carmelites (at São Paulo), in the Curia Generalizia of the Order and in the archive of the Roman Province, both in Rome. We point that this reformative project begun before the arrival of the Order, prepared series of interventions with the objective to control and to discipline the local cultural practices considered profane that intensified in the period comprised by the current inquiry, project that stayed far from achieving all its goals / A presente pesquisa estuda o processo de Reforma Ultramontana do catolicismo brasileiro, através da atuação da Ordem dos Carmelitas Descalços da Província Romana, nas paróquias sul mineiras de Cambuí e do Senhor Bom Jesus do Córrego no período de 1911 até 1922. O recorte temporal desta pesquisa inicia-se em 1911, quando são fundadas as casas de Córrego do Bom Jesus e de Cambuí e se estende até 1922, quando a fundação de Cambuí é fechada e os teresianos se retiram do sul de Minas Gerais. Nesse período de pouco mais de uma década, diversas intervenções dos Carmelitas Descalços são percebidas nessas duas comunidades, e estão relacionadas à tentativa de implantação das diretrizes da Reforma Ultramontana da Igreja no Brasil, tendo por base o projeto reformador presente na então Diocese de Pouso Alegre. Inseridos nesta nova configuração do catolicismo brasileiro, os teresianos dedicam-se à tentativa de substituição gradual de uma prática religiosa pouco austera, festiva, social, familiar e, em grande medida, leiga, pelo catolicismo romano e reformado. Propomo-nos a estudar a presença dos teresianos nessas paróquias, refletindo como se elaboraram as relações entre as formas impostas do catolicismo ultramontano e as identidades sempre reafirmadas pelos leigos, presentes nos ritos e práticas da religiosidade local. As principais fontes utilizadas nesse estudo foram o periódico ilustrado da Ordem dos Carmelitas Descalços, Il Carmelo, o Livro do Tombo n° 1 de Córrego do Bom Jesus, o Livro do Tombo n° 3 de Cambuí, o manuscrito intitulado Appunti Storici della nostra missione nel Brasile, o jornal católico Tribuna Sul Mineira, as Pastorais Coletivas de 1911 e de 1915, as Actas y Decretos del Concilio Plenario de la América Latina, além de documentos avulsos encontrados na Cúria Metropolitana da Arquidiocese de Pouso Alegre, no Arquivo da Província São José dos Carmelitas Descalços (em São Paulo), na Cúria Generalícia da Ordem dos Carmelitas Descalços e no Arquivo da Província Romana dos Carmelitas Descalços, ambos em Roma. Apontamos que este projeto reformador, iniciado muito antes da chegada da Ordem ao sul de Minas Gerais, elaborou uma série de intervenções com o objetivo de controlar e disciplinar as práticas culturais locais consideradas profanas, projeto, contudo, que ficou longe de conseguir atingir a totalidade de seus objetivos

A small adjective attending light, the archangelic noun : Jessica Powers: a modern metaphysical poet / Jessica Powers: a modern metaphysical poet

Prozesky, Stellamarie Bartlette 2013 April 1900 (has links)
This thesis aims to establish Jessica Powers (1905 – 1988) as a metaphysical poet, to augment the composite definition of metaphysical poetry, and to add two emphases to Christian literary theory. A comprehensive library search on Powers reveals that no scholarly work has been written on her poetry since 2005. A meta-analysis of existing work on Powers demonstrates that the metaphysical aspect of her poetry has not yet been comprehensively examined. Though Powers wrote in a time commonly called ‘post-modern’, my contention is that it would be more accurate to describe her as a metaphysical poet in the traditional sense of that term, as used, for example, of George Herbert (1593 – 1633). I endorse the view that the central theme of all metaphysical poetry is the relation between body and soul (Tanenbaum 2002: 211). It will be seen that this relation is the central concern of Powers’ metaphysical poetry. My close reading of Powers’ work as metaphysical is according to a Christian literary theory which agrees with Hass ‘that the study of the text and textual hermeneutics in the twenty-first century will continue because of a particular resurgence of religion’ (2007: 856). It is augmented by two emphases, a scientific (based on Gallagher’s 2009 study of the neurophysiology of attention), and a philosophical (based on Fromm’s 1976 analysis of the ‘being mode’, and on Buber’s 1947 analysis of attentiveness to the present moment). My study thereby contributes to Christian literary theory. There are one hundred and eighty two poems in The Selected Poetry of Jessica Powers. This thesis refers, to greater or lesser extents, to one hundred and seventy six of the poems, and comprehensive examination of their metaphysical aspect is the primary focus of the thesis. My examination of the poems demonstrates that Powers’ poetry can justly be described as metaphysical, which definition of her work serves to highlight an important and hitherto neglected aspect of her work, that she is a metaphysical poet of the finest calibre, and that renewed attention to her work is timely. / English Studies / D.

A Colombian Nun and the Love of God and Neighbour : The Spiritual Path of María de Jesús (1690s-1776) / En Colombiansk Nunna och Kärleken till Gud och till Nästan : María de Jesús (ca 1690-1776) Andliga Väg

Cadavid Yani, Helwi Margarita January 2016 (has links)
María de Jesús (1690s-1776) was a white-veiled Discalced Carmelite nun of the San José convent in Santa Fe de Bogotá, founded in 1606. She professed in the year 1714, and her spiritual journal was printed in a chronicle about the convent in the 1940s. The aim of this study is to examine the love of God and of neighbour, as expressed in the spiritual journal of María de Jesús. In this study I will proceed from the understanding of love as charity. In Christian thought God Himself is love, and its source. Charity, the third, and greatest, of the theological virtues, is a state of being in and responding to God’s love and favour. This way of loving consists in loving God wholeheartedly and loving our neighbour as ourselves. Included in loving our neighbour are acts related to his or her spiritual benefit and salvation. These are all present themes in María de Jesús’ text, but my aim is to examine how she incorporates these themes in her spiritual testimony by analyzing the imagery she uses, and the affective language in her spiritual journal. I will also seek to understand her way of writing by analyzing her text against the background of the tradition of women’s spiritual writings. Being a Discalced Carmelite, it will also be interesting to discover the Teresian presence in María de Jesus’ text, i.e. the influence of her predecessor and the reformer of the order, Teresa of Ávila (1515- 1582). I suggest that this can be noticed in certain rhetorical techniques. I also aim to examine if there are any similarities and differences in their expressions of love of God and of neighbour.
