Na segunda metade do século XIX, entre os anos de 1870-1900, a cidade de Sorocaba começa a experimentar um acentuado processo de modernização articulada por agentes sociais que faziam parte do campo político sorocabano. Este período é caracterizado pela replanejamento do espaço urbano, fim da mão de obra escrava para a mão de obra assalariada, início do processo de industrialização e estabelecimento da República. Neste contexto histórico-social, várias instituições escolares faziam parte do campo educacional sorocabano, entre elas, a Escola Protestante de confissão de fé Presbiteriana. Segundo a perspectiva adotada neste trabalho, esta escola manteve relações de poder com vários campos sociais, pois sua proposta vinha ao encontro dos ideais modernizadores e republicanos postulados pela elite sorocabana, formada por maçons, comerciantes, industriais, negociantes, professores, intelectuais e outros, que via a educação como instrumento capaz de solidificar os seus ideais. Portanto, o objetivo deste trabalho é investigar como a proposta educacional protestante norteamericana de confissão presbiteriana (1876-1896) contribuiu com o processo de modernização da cidade de Sorocaba, para a configuração do campo religioso sorocabano e para a estruturação das relações de poder construídas por vários agentes sociais. Acentua-se, ainda, que o presbiterianismo em Sorocaba não somente disputou o campo religioso, mas também o educacional, e para tanto, posicionou-se politicamente (campo político) optando por legitimar os ideais de matriz republicano-maçônica. / In the second half of the nineteenth century between the years 1870-1900, the city of Sorocaba begins to experience a strong process of modernization articulated by social workers who were part of the political Sorocaba. This period is characterized by the redesign of urban space, end of slave labor to wage labor, beginning the process of industrialization and the establishment of the Republic. This socio-historical context several educational institutions were part of the educational Sorocaba, including the School of Protestant confession of the Presbyterian faith. According to the perspective adopted in this study, this school has maintained relations of power with various social fields, for his proposal met the modernizing ideals and Republicans demanded by elite sorocabana formed by masons, merchants, industrialists, merchants, teachers, intellectuals and others, I saw education as an instrument to solidify its ideals. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate how the proposed educational Protestant North American Presbyterian confession (1876-1896) contributed to the modernization of the city of Sorocaba, in the setting of a religious Sorocaba and the structuring of power relations made by various social actors. Emphasis is also that Presbyterianism in Sorocaba not only played in the religious field, but also educational, and to this end, positioned himself politically (the political) choosing to legitimize the Republican ideals of matrix-Masonic

The central problematic is the reason that led the other reformers to condemn the Anabaptists. The main hypothesis is that Anabatists’ radical theological proposal was also a subversive ideological proposal. The research was based on the movement sources, not the antagonists’ sources, as it is common in historiography. In the first chapter we analyzed the socio-spatial foundations of the movement, identifying its main support groups. It was found that the Anabaptists were predominantly formed by various social segments, which were dynamic and of urban origin. In the second chapter, we investigated the first Anabaptist ideological proposal; their theology denied baptism to children was intended to separate the secular and religious powers. In the third chapter we tried to understand the pacifist ideological proposal. In the fourth and final chapter, we analyzed the proposal of ending private property. The hypothesis that the Anabaptists did not share their properties was not confirmed. It is perceived that the persecution to them was misled; they were wrongly accused of preaching something that they did not preach indeed. The third Anabaptist ideological proposal was about taking care of the poor, according to the other reformers wings. Therefore, it was concluded that the Anabaptists were not only persecuted by their different theology, but their ideology, which is refusing to baptize children and fighting the Turks. And this persecution was not motivated because they were poor peasants, since their top leaders were members of the urban elite, and there were followers from all social groups. / Esta tese tem como seu objeto de estudo o conflito entre o movimento anabatista e as demais correntes da Reforma Protestante entre 1525 e 1555 na Europa Central. A problematização principal foi o questionamento de qual foi o motivo que levou os demais reformadores a condenarem os anabatistas. A hipótese central foi que isso ocorreu em função da proposta teológica radical dos anabatistas ser também uma proposta ideológica subversiva. Como metodologia, a pesquisa baseou-se nas fontes do próprio movimento como ponto de partida, e não nas fontes dos inimigos, como é predominante na historiografia. No primeiro capítulo analisou-se as bases sócio-espaciais do movimento, identificando os seus principais grupos de sustentação. Constatou-se que os anabatistas eram movimentos predominantemente urbanos e dinâmicos formados por diversos segmentos sociais. No segundo capítulo, investigou-se a primeira proposta ideológica anabatista, em que a teologia que negava o batismo para crianças pretendia separar os poderes secular e religioso. No terceiro capítulo tentou-se compreender a proposta ideológica pacifista. No quarto e último capítulo, por fim, analisou-se a proposta do fim da propriedade privada. A hipótese de que os anabatistas não tinham seus bens em comum não foi confirmada. Com isso, percebe-se que foram perseguidos equivocadamente, acusados de pregarem algo que não pregavam de fato. A terceira proposta ideológica anabatista era no sentido de cuidar dos pobres, de acordo com as demais alas reformadoras. Portanto, concluiu-se que os anabatistas foram perseguidos não só pela teologia diferente, mas pela ideologia que pregavam, quando se recusaram a batizar crianças e lutar contra os turcos. Porém, isso não foi motivado porque eram pobres camponeses, pois seus principais líderes eram membros da elite urbana, e havia seguidores de todos os grupos sociais.

It definitely sounds strange to Brazilians. This paper aims to approach aspects concerning the Syrian-Lebanese immigration to Brazil, the social-religious situation in those countries and intent to come to Brazil, despite all peculiarities of harmony and conflict, continuities and ruptures. In this sense, the Syrian-Lebaneses immigrants (arabs) protestants will form their own religious community, Igreja Evangélica Árabe de São Paulo, being this the focus of this project. It will also approach the inclusion, structuring and expansion aspects offering contribution to study this group, since there are no studies on the protestant arabs in São Paulo. It is a study case. / Árabe cristão e, ainda por cima, protestante? Soa estranho aos ouvidos brasileiros. Neste trabalho serão tratados aspectos ligados à imigração sírio-libanesa no Brasil, a situação sócio-religiosa nestes países e seu intento de transplante para o Brasil, com todas as peculiaridades de harmonia e conflitos, continuidade e ruptura. Neste sentido, os imigrantes sírios-libaneses (árabes) protestantes formarão sua comunidade religiosa, a Igreja Evangélica Árabe de São Paulo, sendo esta o objeto de estudo desse projeto. Sua inserção, estruturação e expansão serão tratadas, visando oferecer subsídio para estudo desse grupo, uma vez que não há estudos sobre os árabes protestantes em São Paulo.

This immigration happened in a very concentrated way, in a time interval smaller than 50 years, between the sixties and current days. A very peculiar characteristic of this phenomenon was the quick economical growth. Another is the considerable number of Protestants among the Korean community in São Paulo. In less than 50 years, Korean were able to establish around 71 protestant churches, but only one Buddhist temple (despite of the confucionist tradition of these people) and only one catholic church in Sao Paulo. These numbers present an undoubting religious heritage in the colony. This research will analyze the role of the protestant social networks in São Paulo city and their relations with the Korean immigration from the sixties and on. The dissertation analyzes whether or not (and how) the protestant social networks favored the new-comers, including the non-legal immigrants what was quite relevant in the Korean case; and also investigates the influence these networks had in the adaptation process of the immigrants to Sao Paulo city reality. / Na cidade de São Paulo, encontramos uma população coreana de aproximadamente 40 mil imigrantes, sendo considerada a maior concentração deste grupo humano em território nacional. Esta imigração ocorreu de maneira concentrada, num intervalo de tempo menor que 50 anos, entre a década de 60 e os dias atuais. Uma característica peculiar desta imigração foi o rápido crescimento econômico. Outro aspecto a ser observado é a considerável presença de protestantes na comunidade coreana. Os coreanos que vivem em São Paulo organizaram em menos de 50 anos 71 templos evangélicos, porém somente um templo budista, apesar da tradição confucionista deste povo, e uma igreja católica no centro da cidade. Estes números apresentam, inicialmente, uma tendência religiosa protestante dentro da colônia. Esta pesquisa analisará o papel das redes sociais protestantes na cidade de São Paulo face à imigração coreana a partir dos anos 60. Vamos averiguar se e qual o suporte que estas redes sociais protestantes forneceram aos recém-chegados, incluindo os fluxos migratórios clandestinos, que no caso coreano representou um índice elevado2, e qual a influência estes fluxos tiveram nos casos de sucesso de adaptação deste povo à realidade de São Paulo.

The conference was held by the Sector of Social Responsibility of the Church, created in 1955 and linked to the Evangelical Confederation of Brazil, founded in 1934. The Confederation was an organization formed by churches of the historical Protestantism, such as the Methodist, Independent Presbyterian,Presbyterian of Brazil, Lutheran and Congregational Churches. In the mid-twentieth century, after the Second World War, there came up a Protestant theological movement, which focused their concerns on social issues.

Tais documentos podem ser considerados como o “programa da Reforma”, visto estabelecerem novas bases e postulados teológicos, assim como fundamentarem nova estrutura e ordenamento eclesiástico. Portanto, o que se pretende mostrar é que a Reforma efetivamente ocorreu em 1520, e não em 1517. Escritos antes de sua excomunhão, e sendo, no limite, as razões últimas desta, os documentos apontam para uma irreconciliável ruptura com Roma. Será apresentado também de que forma esses escritos foram lidos pela Igreja Romana e pela nobreza e povo alemães, mostrando as repercussões nesses estamentos. A Introdução apresentará as questões gerais que nortearam o trabalho, traçando o plano geral da Tese. O Capítulo I mostrará o percurso intelectual e humano de Martinho Lutero até a redação dos documentos estudados. O Capítulo II apresentará um panorama da Igreja Católica Romana e da Cristandade do Cisma do Ocidente (1378-1418) até o momento da eclosão da Reforma, focando especificamente na questão da crise de auctoritas e potestas, mostrando a crise do projeto hierocrático, e na questão das indulgências. Neste Capítulo, ainda, será apresentado o estado do Sacro Império Romano-Germânico quando da morte de Maximiliano I e da eleição de seu neto Carlos V, em 1519. O Capítulo III apresentará os tratados e sua repercussão nos diferentes estamentos da sociedade alemã e na Igreja Romana. A Conclusão retomará e aprofundará as questões apresentadas na introdução, à luz do exposto e desenvolvido nos três capítulos precedentes. / This Thesis focuses on the major treatises written by Martin Luther in 1520, of which the most important are: On the Babylonian captivity of the Church; On the freedom of the Christian and the Address to the Christian Nobility of the German Nation concerning the improvement of the Christian Estate. These documents may be taken as the “program of the Reformation”, as they established new theological basis and postulates, and founded a new ecclesiastical structure. Thus, what is intended to state is that the Reformation effectively happened in 1520, and not in 1517. Written shortly before his excommunication and being, at last, the ultimate reasons for it, such treatises point to an irreconcilable rupture with Rome. The work presents explanations on how these writings were read by the Roman Church and by the German nobility and people, pointing the repercussions in such estates. Introduction will present the general questions which guided the research, outdrawing the main plan of the Thesis. Chapter I will show Martin Luther’s human and intellectual path towards the writing of the studied treatises. Chapter II will describe the situation of the Roman Catholic Church and that of the Christendom from the West Schism (1378-1418) to the eve of the Reformation, focusing particularly on the crisis of auctoritas and potestas, showing the crisis of the hierocratic project, and the question of the indulgences. This Chapter will introduce the situation of the Holy Roman Empire at the moment of the death of Maximilian I and the election of his grandson Charles V, in 1519. Chapter III will present the treatises and their repercussions on the different estates of the German society and of the Roman Church. Conclusion will retake and deepen the questions presented in the Introduction, after all exposed in the three previous Chapters.

The thesis explores the intersection between medicine and religion in the context of colonisation in Korea in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. I will focus on the work of medical missionaries from Europe and North America that pursued perfect cleanliness in body, mind and society, including total abstinence and spiritual cleanliness, by spreading biomedical concept of hygiene. One of the points that I will articulate is the ways in which medicine as a colonising force in its own right worked in the mission field to produce 'the docile bodies of people' in the Foucauldian sense. I will argue that what mission medicine in Korea utilised and relied on for its work was a new concept of cleanliness based on biomedical knowledge, the germ theory, rather than the power of colonisation. It was because mission medicine in Korea often worked without collaborating with direct colonial powers. In this sense, Protestant Christianity and biomedicine shared a common foundation in 'cleanliness.' Consequently, I will try to emphasise the multi-dimensional and multi-directional role of the use of cleanliness as an efficacious tool for control of the body. In relation to the historiography of medicine in Korea, I will argue that Confucianism served the social and cultural control of bodies as a medicalised form and that Christianity tried to replace it by providing new knowledge concerning body, disease, health, and cleanliness. In the same respect, I will explore the historical relationship between the germ theory and missionary medicine in Korea. The germ theories of disease were not simply a new etiology but also an effective cultural implement to change people's lives. Thus, the theories did not simply remain in the realm of medicine but were introduced, disseminated, and applied to all matters relating to the body, including its mental and spiritual aspects, through the concept of cleanliness.

This is in many ways a limited study. The first limitation is that only four denominations, the Anglican, Congregational, Methodist, Presbyterian, are considered and nothing is said about the work of the Moravians, Lutherans, Roman Catholics and the Dutch Reformed Churches in the field of theological education. The second limitation is that it is a study of theological education as distinct from general, industrial and other forms of education. All the forms of theological education considered here were run at missionary institutions that offered other forms of education and prepared their students for public government examinations with certain government conditions to be met. Moreover, a certain standard of general education was required before candidates were admitted to the theological course. Therefore, theological education was constantly dependent upon and was influenced by secular education and government regulations concerning secular education. For that reason the first chapter is a very brief survey of White Education in the Cape and African education in all four provinces from the beginning to 1915, the year before Fort Hare opened its doors to students seeking 'higher' education. The second chapter discusses the educational programme of Lovedale because Lovedale generally determined the whole of African education in the Cape. When Lovedale and the Methodists transferred their training to the South African Native College at Fort Hare, theological students had to abide by educational and other regulations of the university College. Chapters III and IV deal with the Methodist theological schools and the courses followed at Fort Hare. The third limitation of this study is that it is a study of the theological education of Africans, which category includes Coloureds and Indians because in the four churches under review they were trained together with Africans. In all churches under review here the theological education of whites was done in an unsatisfactory and ad hoc way. Many men were ordained without a satisfactory theological education. They were given some training by their superintendents, bishops or other men appointed to do the job in addition to their own normal duties. A few were sent overseas and many went through some arrangement within this country. St Paul's Theological College for Anglicans was opened in 1902. A start was made with the training of white Methodist Candidates for the ministry in the buildings of the Wesleyan High School for Girls in Grahamstown, in July 1928, under the Rev. James Pendlebury, B.A. (a supernumerary). Dr. William Flint who started the Methodist College as Principal, at Bollihope, Cape Town, in 1929, was seventy-five years of age when he opened the new Sbllege. From 1948 white theological students of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational Churches have been trained at Livingstone House, Rhodes University, Grahamstown. .The final limitation is that this study ends at the close of 1960 and thus omits some of the exciting developments in theological education that have taken place since then. These limitations and demarcations were, however, necessary in order to focus attention on a small area where the main problems could be seen clearly, unencumbered by lesser issues. Where the training was run on denominational lines, it seemed necessary wherever possible to give a chapter to each denomination, and to attempt to pull the threads together in a concluding chapter.

Spiritual healing is a ubiquitous and fundamental part of Charismatic Christianity; it is indelibly linked to understandings of God, society, and individual identity. And yet, the phenomenon of spiritual healing—particularly its expression within North American, Abrahamic traditions—has been understudied within academia. In this thesis, I take a phenomenological approach in order to better comprehend the meaning-making process behind spiritual healing rituals amongst Charismatic Protestant Christians in Ottawa, Canada. Through a small-scale, local ethnographic study in Ottawa in which I conducted participant observation and several in-depth interviews, I explore Charismatic Christianity through the lens of lived religion. Based on a series of focused case studies, I conclude that the Charismatic cosmological worldview (one in which cosmic-wide restoration is emphasised) correlates with, and contributes to, the Charismatic emphasis on individual healing.
