Evangelicalism in western Canada was fuelled by fundamentalist theology and devotion which evolved in this region during the early twentieth century. Generally, Canadian evangelical theologians have focused on the historical and theological implications of evangelicalism within this area. Due to the nature of evangelical theology, which is governed by reason and the defense of truth and dogma, this Christian movement in the west ignored by default concepts connected to mystical theology. This thesis researches a question which has not had an adequate response within evangelical theological tradition, primarily as a result of its disregard for mystical theology. The issue of concern in this thesis is the nature of the process of sanctification of the soul, and particularly, the purpose of the silence of God during this time. Questions to be addressed are: `what is the nature of spiritual transformation?', `what transpires in the soul of the person?' and `what is the role of the `dark night' and the `silence of God' during this experience?' This research responds with an explanation to the underlying cause for the inability of evangelical spirituality in the Canadian west to respond to this issue. It also provides a plausible resolution to the problem which is embedded in the literature of John of the Cross, a sixteenth century Spanish mystic. / CHR SPIRIT, CHURCHIST, MISS / DTH (CHR SPIRIT)

A escritora portuguesa Maria Gabriela Llansol (1931-2008) dá a ler, em seus livros, uma comunidade de diferentes que propõe encontros impossíveis no curso da história. Este trabalho debruça-se sobre sua escrita da década de 1970 e início da década de 1980, com o objetivo de analisar a presença textual do poeta místico espanhol São João da Cruz (1542-1591), tornado membro da comunidade na sua obra. Interessa-nos, por um lado, refletir sobre as contribuições do místico para a formação dessa comunidade por meio dos efeitos da leitura de seus textos, do contraste de perspectivas e da partilha de experiências-limite na linguagem e no corpo, e, por outro, explorar as reelaborações do pensamento e da figura autoral de um poeta do século XVI em uma escrita contemporânea que concebe os discursos da história e da própria literatura a partir das margens. Em nosso percurso, contaremos com a teoria de Barthes e de outros críticos sobre autoria, autoridade, escritura e efeito, bem como noções advindas do campo da Ética como afeto, alteridade, hospitalidade e comunidade. / In her books, the Portuguese writer Maria Gabriela Llansol (1931-2008) builds up a community of different voices that proposes impossible meetings in the course of history. This research focuses on her 1970s and early 1980s writing in order to analyze the textual presence of the Spanish mystic poet Saint John of the Cross (1542-1591) who has become a community member in her work. On one hand I am interested in reflecting on the mystics contributions for this community by means of reading effects from his texts, viewpoint contrasts and limit experiences in language and body. On the other hand, I aim to explore both the re-elaboration of thoughts and the authorship of a 16th-century poet in a contemporary writing that considers historical and literary discourses from the margins In that sense, I shall consider Barthes and other essayist theories on authorship, authority, writing and effect, as well as ideas from Ethics as affect, otherness, hospitality and community.
