This study analyses the social function of glossolalia in the narrative world of the book of Acts. In so doing, it addresses the lack of scholarship related to treating glossolalic references from social scientific perspectives. Particularly noted is the absence in the literature of adequate treatments of the Ephesian disciples pericope in Acts 18:24–19:7, which this study seeks to correct. Through application of Berger and Luckmann’s sociology of knowledge models, this study argues that reading Luke-Acts as the author’s legitimation of the Jesus movement’s social world is a valid, even preferred reading of the literature. Tracing the development of Luke’s legitimation conceptual machinery reveals the social conflict background that to a large degree motivated its writing and organized its content. The purity-related conflicts between circumcision loyalists and Jesus followers from the Gentile world that dominate the second half of Acts is of particular interest to this research. This study demonstrates how Luke uses glossolalia as a divinely initiated marker of Gentile purity status to legitimate new social boundaries that supersede circumcision. These new social boundaries, marked by glossolalia, represent an integral component of the Jesus movement’s revised purity map, relative to temple-centred Yahwism. The legitimation reading, including Luke’s construction and validation of the Jesus group’s symbolic universe and its conclusions regarding the social function of glossolalia, is applied to the Ephesian disciples pericope. This study argues that the events narrated in this passage represent a continuing social conflict between circumcision loyalists and Gentile converts. Luke narrates the events in Acts 18:24–19:7 in order to correct a deviant baptism teaching (John’s baptism) that was propagated with the intent, based on purity concerns and prejudice, to marginalize Gentiles from full social integration into the Jesus community. Demonstrating that glossolalia functions as a social boundary marker that supersedes circumcision and that this best informs our interpretation of the Ephesian disciples pericope fully integrates this narrative event into Luke’s literary programme. / New Testament / D.

Rock music has during all of its almost 50 years of existence been the subject of criticism and debate. Much of this criticism has risen from religious circles. But also in these circles, rock music has its advocates. This thesis studies the reactions to rock music by spokespersons for institutional Christianity. Most of the material studied is written and published material. The material dates from 1983-1998 and originates from Sweden, Finland and the United States. The material is studied qualitatively. The purpose is to study the Christian discourse on rock music as an example of how institutional religion defends itself against competition. A theoretical perspective and conceptual apparatus is developed. The Christian discourse on rock is viewed as the defence of a monopolistic symbolic universe - institutional Christianity - against an outside threat - rock. This defence is described by two concepts, devaluation and incorporation. Devaluation involves giving rock an inferior status, for example defining it as demonic. Incorporation is an attempt to make rock part of the Christian symbolic universe. The result of devaluation and incorporation is the same: the denial of any reality outside the Christian symbolic universe. Several different techniques for devaluating and incorporating for example rock music can be used. Two such techniques are studied in the thesis: symbol interpretation, and the defence of boundaries. The main contribution of the thesis is the development and application of a theoretical perspective on how institutional religion defends itself against competition. The discussion on how established religion reacts to "secular" media adds an important dimension to the academic discussion on media, religion and culture.

This study sought to examine the effectiveness of proposed activities for the production of texts included in the textbook Portuguese Project Pitanguá, 3rd grade, a teacher in the municipal schools of the city of Maceió, in the 2007 school year. Our hypothesis is that the effectiveness of proposed production of texts included in the textbook Portuguese, both elements present in the symbolic universe of the teacher as coming from the fundamental relationship between the operators of the language, is made present. We based this theory work in the metaphoric and metonymic processes (LEMOS, 1998, 1997, 1992) and in Figures Other (Dufour, 2000, 2005), representatives of the symbolic universe of the subject. We believe the relevance of this research is in search of trying to understand the relationships established between the proposed production of text inserted into a textbook and the teacher guides. We found that trying to put in place what the textbook suggests, and yet, modify the proposals, the teacher brought his "reading", indicating the emergence of fragments of his symbolic universe (Dufour, 2000) and the characterization of a subject which is a different value to what is proposed in the textbook, placing it as a subject with autonomy in the face of the textbook, through the presence of figures of the Other and the metaphoric and metonymic processes. / O presente trabalho pretendeu analisar a efetivação de propostas de atividades de produção de textos inseridas no livro didático de português Projeto Pitanguá, 3ª série , por uma professora da rede municipal de ensino da cidade de Maceió, no ano letivo de 2007. Partimos da hipótese de que, na efetivação de propostas de produção de textos inseridas em um livro didático de português, tanto elementos presentes no universo simbólico da professora quanto advindos da articulação entre os operadores fundamentais da linguagem, se presentificam. Fundamentamos teoricamente este trabalho nos processos metafóricos e metonímicos (LEMOS, 1998, 1997, 1992) e nas figuras de Outro (DUFOUR, 2000, 2005), representantes do universo simbólico do sujeito. Acreditamos que a relevância desta pesquisa se encontra na busca de procurar compreender as relações estabelecidas entre as propostas de produção de texto inseridas em um livro didático e a professora que as orienta. Verificamos que ao tentar colocar em funcionamento o que o livro didático sugere e, contudo, modificar as propostas, a professora trouxe sua leitura , indicando a emergência de fragmentos de seu universo simbólico (DUFOUR, 2000) bem como a caracterização de um sujeito que constitui um valor diferente para aquilo que é proposto no livro didático, colocando-a como um sujeito com autonomia diante do livro didático, através da presença das figuras de Outro e dos processos metafóricos e metonímicos.

The returning to the past, experienced by most of the characters inscribed in these narratives, is only possible through the manipulation of the language, what is evident in the life stories told by Vilela and Estrada Estrada.

Another possible observation given by the reading of the narratives is the one that the fictional and the historical discourses dialog between themselves by representing, interpreting and understanding the world through recollections and through language, because both discourses produce meaning and constitute a way of seeing the world, by making the past intelligible. In the case of the fact that the literary discourse is filled with representative elements, we observe that the literary texts here discussed accomplish the representation of women and their role in society.

This study is an attempt to read 1 John, a document which was conceptualised almost two thousand years ago in a particularly different context from that of Zulu people into which this venture is undertaken. A number of hermeneutical problems are raised by this kind of reading. Chapter eight of this thesis addresses itself to these problems. The present dissertation utilises the sociology of knowledge especially Berger and Luckmann's theory of the symbolic universe to investigate the possible social scenario of 1 John into which the conceptualisation and crystallisation of the text of 1 John first took place. The investigation has led the researcher into discovering the abundance of family language and common social conventions relating to family, which the author of 1 John found to be useful vehicles for conveying his understanding of the new situation that had come about as a result of the fellowship eventuating from the acceptance of the gospel. The same theory of Berger and Luckmann was used to investigate the African (Zulu) scenario with the view to ascertaining whether some form of congruency could be established between the social symbols identified in 1 John and those obtaining in the Zulu context. To ensure that the results of this investigation applied to Zulu people of this day and age, the researcher conducted field research. In doing this, a qualitative approach was followed as it was deemed appropriate for this kind of study. Within the qualitative framework, the focus group interview method was employed. The results were therefore subjected to a process of comparison and synthesis with the views obtaining in 1 John and the Zulu world. This investigation confirmed our hypothesis that there exists a major of congruency between both universes, that is, 1 John and that of Zulu people, which if properly identified, investigated and exploited, could enhance a smooth construction of a hermeneutical bridge of understanding between the two worlds and enhance a heightened relevance and significance of 1 John's message within the Zulu context. The investigation also revealed some difficulties regarding certain symbols especially those that that seek to express the divine reality. The bankruptcy of language to capture and express the divine reality as people perceive it was noted. Our conclusion therefore, was this: inadequate though these symbols might be to express divine reality, at the moments they are a given. For instance, within the Zulu context, a number of symbols could be used to express the reality of the Christ-event. For instance, to mention just a few, the First born son, as well as the Ancestor symbols, both convey something of the reality of Christ but they do not go far enough to express the fullness embodied in the person of Christ. For that reason it is suggested that we do not shy away from these symbols because of attendant difficulties, but that an informed and critical discussion seeking to reach consensus among all stake-holders be conducted. / Dissertation (DD)--University of Pretoria, 2004. / New Testament Studies / unrestricted

The main aim of this dissertation is to understand the function of the text The Parables of Enoch (PE) in its ancient context. Despite the complicated and composite nature of this text, I have tried to explain the internal logic of this text, especially with an emphasis on understanding the different timelines with which the author of the text works. A critical evaluation of the limits of working with the preserved Ethiopian translations, as well as with the composite nature of the extant form of the text is the essential prerequisite for the interpretation of PE. In the exegetical part, I seek to demonstrate the main thesis that the purpose of PE is to offer a complex symbolic universe through ancient authoritative visions of the ancestor Enoch that serves to legitimize the shared social reality, which is in danger due to the difficult situation of persecution and oppression. I take the theoretical framework for this research over from the sociological constructivism. While the shared social reality is often in crisis, the symbolic universe as a complex level of legitimation intends to explain this discrepancy between the assumed social reality and the reality of the everyday experience. In the case of PE, it is a discrepancy between the experience of oppression and persecution of the addressees...

This study was developed in three Settlement Projects: João Batista II (PA), Cupiúba (PA) and Sumaré I (SP). The Settlement Project João Batista II originary from the expropriated area of the Fazenda Tanary (Bacuri)(Tanary Farm), located at the right side of the BR-316/Pará-Maranhão Highway, towards the municipal districts of the state of Pará, Castanhal/Santa Maria, on the KM-04 (Bacuri Branch), with hundred and thirty six (136) settled families, resultant from the MST organization. The Cupiúba Settlement Project, originary from the expropriated area of the Fazenda Cachoeira (Cachoeira Farm), located at the right side of the BR-316/Pará-Maranhão Highway, towards the municipal districts of the state of Pará, Castanhal/Santa Maria, with two hundred and thirty seven settled families, resultant from the FETAGRI/CUT organization and parties connected to the organic left. The Sumaré I Settlement Project, originary from the Horto Florestal de Boa Vista glebe (Boa Vista Forest Little Garden), located in the municipal district of Sumaré/São Paulo, with twenty seven (27) settled families, organized by MST/CUT. The study defends the thesis that in the organization of campings, pre-settlements and settlements, it has been produced a process of ressocialization (kinds of sociability) configured in the latent, consolidated and latent/consolidated forms. This process of ressocialization is founded on contents - synthesis of historical conflicts produced by the social movements, political parties, churches, syndicates and their central centers, and state technicians, etc. These kinds of sociability are disclosed when we decipher the different social codes, generated in the different processes of interiorization of the set of values, rules, behaviors, languages, etc. in a table of general reference. In order to decipherate the enigma of the origin of the settled ones, we take as basis the process of differentiation/and/or distribution of the present settled ones in the space of social, historical, political and cultural relations, previous to the process of occupation. The understanding of this process starts from the analysis of the trajectories/and/or transitory situations that the individual or social groups develop in the social and temporal spaces. The formation of the settlements is comprehensible by the process of land occupation, situation that is understood as a situation of interlegality.. the settlements constitution is realized with the legal possession of the land, basis of a new socialization, which involves a multiplicity of social situations such as the institutionalization and the legitimation; the interiorization and production of socialization mechanisms; the recreation of new spaces and symbolic times and/or recreation of a new rural world. This process requires an interiorization of social roles, which means the acceptance of a new institutional order, where the social actors (the settled ones) represent them in the society (social stage) according a social apparatus that originates and maintains the symbolic universe. This symbolic universe locates the collective happenings in a coherent and systematized unity which includes the present, the past (memory common to the socialized individuals in the community) and the future (table of common reference for the projection of individual actions). These plausibility structures, materialized and incorporated, can be observed in the political field through the institutions, political parties, syndicates, etc., and the agents and/or social actors who effect its functioning and/or combat them, that is, can be observed in the field of forces and/or in the field of conflicts, that implicate in the subversion of the order in the rural settlements / Este estudo trata dos assentamentos rurais, resultantes de processos de ocupação, mediados pela Central Única dos Trabalhadores CUT e pelo Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra - MST, no período de 1985-2001. Esse estudo foi desenvolvido em três Projetos de Assentamentos - João Batista II (PA), Cupiúba (PA) e Sumaré I (SP). O Projeto de Assentamento João Batista II, originário da área desapropriada da Fazenda Tanary (Bacuri), localizado na margem direita da BR-316/Pará-Maranhão, no sentido dos municípios paraenses de Castanhal / Santa Maria, no KM 04 (Ramal Bacuri), com cento e trinta e seis (136) famílias assentadas, resultante da organização do MST. O Projeto de Assentamento Cupiúba, originário da área desapropriada da Fazenda Cachoeira, localizado na margem direita da BR-316/Pará-Maranhão, no sentido dos municípios paraenses Castanhal / Santa Maria, com duzentos e trinta e sete (237) famílias assentadas, resultantes da organização da FETAGRI/CUT e partidos ligados à esquerda orgânica. O Projeto de Assentamento Sumaré I, originário da gleba Horto Florestal de Boa Vista, localizado no município de Sumaré / São Paulo, com vinte e sete (27) famílias assentadas, organizadas pelo MST/CUT. O estudo defende a tese de que nas organizações dos acampamentos, pré-assentamentos e assentamentos está sendo produzido um processo de ressocialização (formas de sociabilidade) configurado nas formas latente, consolidada e latente / consolidada. Esse processo de ressocialização está fundamentado em conteúdos síntese das lutas históricas produzida pelos movimentos sociais, pelos partidos políticos, pelas igrejas, pelos sindicatos e suas centrais sindicais e pelos técnicos estatais, etc. Essas formas de sociabilidade se descortinam quando deciframos os diferentes códigos sociais, que são gerados nos diferentes processos de interiorização do conjunto de valores, normas, comportamentos, linguagens, etc., num quadro de referência geral. Para decifrar o enigma da origem dos assentados tomamos por base o processo de diferenciação e/ou distribuição dos atuais assentados no espaço de relações sociais, históricas, políticas e culturais, anteriores ao processo de ocupação. O entendimento desse processo parte da análise das trajetórias e/ou situações transitórias, que os indivíduos ou grupos sociais desenvolvem nos espaços sociais e temporais. A formação dos assentamentos é compreendida pelo processo de ocupação da terra, situação de ocupação entendida como situação de interlegalidade. A constituição dos assentamentos se concretiza com a posse legal da terra, base da nova socialização, que envolve uma multiplicidade de situações sociais como a institucionalização e a legitimação; a interiorização e produção de mecanismos de socialização; a recriação de novos espaços e tempos simbólicos e/ou recriação de um novo mundo rural. Esse processo exige a interiorização de papéis sociais, o que significa aceitação da nova ordem institucional, onde os atores sociais (assentados) os representam na sociedade (palco social) segundo um aparelho social que origina e mantém o universo simbólico. Esse universo simbólico localiza os acontecimentos coletivos numa unidade coerente e sistematizada que inclui o presente, o passado (memória comum aos indivíduos socializados na comunidade) e o futuro (quadro de referência comum para a projeção das ações individuais). Essas estruturas de plausibilidade, materializadas e incorporadas podem ser observadas no campo político através das instituições, partidos políticos, sindicatos, etc., e os agentes e/ou atores sociais que efetivam o seu funcionamento e/ou os combatem, isto é, podem ser observadas no campo de forças e/ou campo de lutas, que implicam subversão da ordem nos assentamentos rurais

O estudo defende a tese de que nas organizações dos acampamentos, pré-assentamentos e assentamentos está sendo produzido um processo de ressocialização (formas de sociabilidade) configurado nas formas latente, consolidada e latente / consolidada. Esse processo de ressocialização está fundamentado em conteúdos síntese das lutas históricas produzida pelos movimentos sociais, pelos partidos políticos, pelas igrejas, pelos sindicatos e suas centrais sindicais e pelos técnicos estatais, etc. Essas formas de sociabilidade se descortinam quando deciframos os diferentes códigos sociais, que são gerados nos diferentes processos de interiorização do conjunto de valores, normas, comportamentos, linguagens, etc., num quadro de referência geral. Para decifrar o enigma da origem dos assentados tomamos por base o processo de diferenciação e/ou distribuição dos atuais assentados no espaço de relações sociais, históricas, políticas e culturais, anteriores ao processo de ocupação. O entendimento desse processo parte da análise das trajetórias e/ou situações transitórias, que os indivíduos ou grupos sociais desenvolvem nos espaços sociais e temporais. A formação dos assentamentos é compreendida pelo processo de ocupação da terra, situação de ocupação entendida como situação de interlegalidade. A constituição dos assentamentos se concretiza com a posse legal da terra, base da nova socialização, que envolve uma multiplicidade de situações sociais como a institucionalização e a legitimação; a interiorização e produção de mecanismos de socialização; a recriação de novos espaços e tempos simbólicos e/ou recriação de um novo mundo rural. Esse processo exige a interiorização de papéis sociais, o que significa aceitação da nova ordem institucional, onde os atores sociais (assentados) os representam na sociedade (palco social) segundo um aparelho social que origina e mantém o universo simbólico. Esse universo simbólico localiza os acontecimentos coletivos numa unidade coerente e sistematizada que inclui o presente, o passado (memória comum aos indivíduos socializados na comunidade) e o futuro (quadro de referência comum para a projeção das ações individuais). Essas estruturas de plausibilidade, materializadas e incorporadas podem ser observadas no campo político através das instituições, partidos políticos, sindicatos, etc., e os agentes e/ou atores sociais que efetivam o seu funcionamento e/ou os combatem, isto é, podem ser observadas no campo de forças e/ou campo de lutas, que implicam subversão da ordem nos assentamentos rurais
