The present work aims to elucidate the role of the Jewish feasts of Passover, Tabernacles and Dedication in the presentation of Jesus in the Fourth Gospel. Specifically, I will seek to gain a clearer understanding of John’s appropriation of the symbolic and traditional backgrounds of these feasts by examining pertinent sources from contemporary Judaism and the manner in which John has made use of the traditions preserved therein. Past studies have achieved consensus on certain points of interpretation but overlooked important evidence at other points. Some scholars have also been too quick to cite John’s treatment of the feasts as evidence of his anti-Jewish posture in the Gospel as a whole. In what follows, therefore, I will give particular attention to those background sources which have not been accorded due attention. I will also attempt to situate my study within the wider question of Judaism in the Fourth Gospel and to suggest how the results achieved in the end may bear upon ongoing debates on this matter.

Desta forma, constitui uma temática relacionada à "A comicidade e o Riso nos Festejos Religiosos da Boa Vista do Padre João - o lugar da condição de "ridículo" entre o sagrado e o profano". O objetivo geral da pesquisa foi analisar quais e como os recursos cômicos constituem o imaginário e a produção de sentidos dos devotos nestes festejos. A produção dos dados ocorreu através de observações participantes e de diálogos durante as Festas de celebração dos santos católicos. A tese defendida é a de que nas relações humanas os comportamentos, que permeiam o ambiente religioso no confronto entre as linguagens sacras e as profanas, são atravessados pela comicidade e pelo riso trazendo a condição de ridículo dos devotos como um acalentador do estranhamento entre as partes. Assim, parte do ponto anterior das encenações e da teatralização da cultura popular religiosa e seus personagens cômicos e artísticos. Este trabalho buscou aprofundar entendimentos quanto à formação humana dos cômicos, que aqui tratarei por ridículos. Enquanto os demais trabalhos esmiúçam o espaço e as ações da festividade e da produção artística envolvidas neste contexto, esta tese buscou estabelecer uma análise em um território um tanto quanto esquecido pelas pesquisas, ou seja, a comicidade, o riso e os cômicos no cotidiano das vidas comuns de sujeitos, ainda, não artistas, ou seja, o processo...

In this way, it is a theme related to "Comedy and Laughter in the Religious Festivals of Boa Vista of Father João - the place of the" ridiculous "condition between the sacred and the profane. The general objective of the research was to analyze which and how the comic resources constitute the imaginary and the production of senses of the devotees in these celebrations. The production of the data took place through participant observations and dialogues during the celebration feasts of the catholic saints. The thesis defended is that in human relations the behaviors that permeate the religious environment in the confrontation between the sacred and the profane languages are crossed by comedy and laughter bringing the ridiculous condition of the devotees as a cherishing of the estrangement between the parties. Thus, part of the previous point of the staging and theatricalisation of popular religious culture and its comic and artistic characters. This work sought to deepen understandings as to the human formation of comics, which I will treat here as ridiculous. While the other works clarify the space and the actions of the festival and the artistic production involved in this context, this thesis sought to establish an analysis in a territory somewhat forgotten by the researches, that is, comedy, laughter and comics in the daily life of ordinary lives...
