Although tabernacles do not hold the sacred meaning of Mormon temples, they are symbolic landmarks of the culture of the early Mormon Saints. Tabernacles were once an integral part of each community in which they were located. They were often the main buildings in the community, reflecting the coherent, orderly nature of a Mormon town. Today, many of the original tabernacles have been torn down and others are under the threat of destruction.The first tabernacles built in the Mormon Culture Region were constructed in the 1850s. They were large meetinghouses built for the purpose of holding large general meetings. They were preacher centered houses of worship with few classrooms or recreational facilities. Over time the tabernacles became larger and often more ornate. Because of the growth of the Church, change in Church programs and technological advancement tabernacles are no longer built. Those remaining are threatened with destruction because of high maintenance costs, and low practicality.

Considérés comme largement tributaires des modèles métropolitains, les tabernacles de la Nouvelle-France ne sont pas pour autant des sous-produits de l'art français. Par delà leurs particularités liées à des facteurs comme le niveau variable de formation des sculpteurs, ces pièces de mobilier religieux possèdent un caractère original. L'analyse d'un corpus représentatif d'oeuvres par rapport à différentes sources d'inspiration démontre en effet que si les sculpteurs québécois procèdent à partir d'un répertoire formel analogue aux sculpteurs français, ils arrivent néanmoins à développer des façons de faire qui leur sont propres. Par surcroît, au plan formel, leurs tabernacles n'accusent pas de retard temporel sur les oeuvres métropolitaines. / Montréal Trigonix inc. 2018

No. of bitstreams: 1 Silvano Lessi.pdf: 1232073 bytes, checksum: aa3ddfebdca742394d0e88a6e69c5c69 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-10-05 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The research deals with the three most important Judaic Feasts: The Feast of Pesah ( Feast of Unleavened Bread), The Feast of Weeks and the Feast of Tabernacles, with a theoretical basis that has the view of the biblical books of The Old Testaments. As backdrop, this research has used the content of Deuteronomy 16, 1-17. It's said that it wasn't for sure when each of these feasts appeared, but it was said that these feasts have suffered alterations in the course of time until nowadays. The comparisons made through the study of the texts in The Old Testaments have given a better view about these alterations. The unification of The Feast of Pesah with The Feast of Unleavened bread since they were close by each other in the Judaic calendar was one of the most important alterations. Another one was the centralization of the three important feasts in the temple of Jerusalem. The analysis also shows the impacts that these changes have caused over the people of Israel. The people who used to celebrate the feasts in a familiar surrounding had to change the place of their worship. The change made by King Josiah also had a great impact over the Jewish people. It's said that such change had a political and economic reason. At last, it was analyzed the changes that had occurred in the calendar of the feasts. The Feast of Pesah which used to be celebrated in the month of Tisri was then celebrated in the month of Abib, in Deuteronomy 16, 1-17. / A pesquisa trabalha as três principais Festas judaicas: Festa do pesah (juntamente com a Festa dos pães ázimos), Festa das semanas e a Festa das tendas, trazendo um embasamento teórico que perpassa os livros bíblicos do Antigo Testamento. Como pano de fundo principal, esta pesquisa utilizou o conteúdo de Deuteronômio 16,1-17. Pode-se dizer que não se conseguiu afirmar quando surgiram cada uma das Festas, entretanto observou-se que estas Festas sofreram transformações no decorrer do tempo até os dias de hoje. As comparações feitas através do estudo de textos do Antigo Testamento deram uma visão melhor sobre estas transformações. A unificação da Festa do pesah com a Festa dos pães ázimos, por serem Festas próximas uma da outra no calendário judaico, foi uma das transformações importantes. Outra foi a centralização das três principais Festas no templo de Jerusalém. A análise também perpassa pelos impactos que estas mudanças causaram sobre o povo de Israel. O povo que tinha por costume comemorar as Festas num ambiente familiar teve que mudar o local de suas adorações. A reforma feita pelo rei Josias também teve grande impacto para o povo judeu. Podemos dizer que esta reforma teve uma finalidade política e econômica. Por fim, também foram analisadas as mudanças que ocorreram no calendário das três Festas. A Festa do pesah que era comemorada no mês de Tisri passa a ser comemorado no mês de Abib no livro de Deuteronômio 16,1-17
