No. of bitstreams: 1 Merlinton Pastor de Oliveira.pdf: 2037234 bytes, checksum: e8594bf3ba595832a9fe321f0b27d6d1 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010-12-07 / The purpose of this thesis is to understand from a phenomenological perspective the reasons why Christian religious leaders such as priests and pastors enroll for postgraduate and graduate work on psychology, what this type of education means for them, and what contribution psychology can provide to their ecclesiastical practices. In order to reach this objective interviews were conducted with religious leaders who majored in psychology and remain active professionals in the religious work field. As a comparandum, a religious leader with no previous education in psychology was interviewed, and his perspective helped broaden the scope of this research as well as helped us understand the reasons why the other participants sought training in this area. The analysis of the interviews - which were planned and developed according to a phenomenological approach - was based on the assumptions of three kinds of scholars: those who work as psychologists, those who work as religious leaders, and those who work both as psychologists and as religious leaders. This investigation reached the following conclusions: although Christian religious leaders work on a daily basis providing care for human beings, their previous seminary training does not sufficiently enable them to handle many of the issues brought to them by their church members, since that previous training focused mainly upon a person´s spiritual dimensions; the wish to feel better prepared to accomplish their work has led many Christian religious leaders to seek training as professional psychologists; as far as it was ascertained, training in psychology does not hinder their performance as religious leaders; rather, psychology is seen as a partner able to make them more efficient; although there have been moments when psychology and spirituality were considered as antagonistic interests, the present relationship between psychology and religion is seen by religious leaders as important, necessary, and healthy, since both religion and psychology aim at helping people. Their understanding is that when psychologists and religious leaders work together the aid thus provided by them become much more effective / O objetivo desta dissertação é compreender, a partir de uma metodologia fenomenológica, quais as razões pelas quais líderes religiosos cristãos, padres e pastores, procuram formação em cursos de graduação ou pós-graduação de Psicologia, qual o significado dessa busca para eles, e as contribuições da Psicologia para as suas práticas eclesiásticas. Para que esse objetivo fosse contemplado foram realizadas entrevistas com líderes religiosos que fizeram uma formação em Psicologia e continuam na prática de sua atividade sacerdotal. Como contraponto, para ampliar a compreensão do tema, foi entrevistado um líder religioso que não procurou nenhuma formação em Psicologia, e sua visão colaborou na compreensão das razões que levaram os colaboradores anteriormente entrevistados a buscarem conhecimentos nessa área. A análise das entrevistas, planejadas e desenvolvidas de acordo com as propostas metodológicas da fenomenologia, teve como referência teóricos que lidam no âmbito da Psicologia e também teóricos que lidam no âmbito da Religião, bem como autores que atuam na interlocução desses dois domínios. Este estudo permitiu apontar algumas conclusões: embora cotidianamente o líder religioso cristão atue dando atenção ao ser humano, o preparo prévio, ocorrido no seminário, não o capacita suficientemente para lidar com muitas das questões que lhe são colocadas pelos seus fiéis, visto que neste preparo está focada prioritariamente a dimensão espiritual; o desejo de se sentir melhor preparado para realizar seu trabalho, e assim atender satisfatoriamente as pessoas em suas diversas necessidades, tem motivado líderes religiosos a buscarem os recursos e a capacitação em procedimentos que são próprios da Psicologia; o contato com a Psicologia não diminui a importância de sua atividade eclesiástica, antes, a Psicologia é vista por estes líderes religiosos como uma parceira, ela os torna sacerdotes mais eficientes; embora marcada por momentos de desencontros ao longo do tempo, a relação atual entre a Psicologia e a Religião tem sido vista por estes líderes religiosos cristãos como importante, necessária e saudável, visto que ambas têm o propósito de auxiliar o ser humano, e agindo em comum interesse este auxílio se torna mais efetivo

Co-tutelle de thèse Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne / Université Libre de Bruxelles, sous la direction conjointe de Michel KAPLAN (Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne) et de Jean-Marie SANSTERRE (Université Libre de Bruxelles) L’épiscopat constitue un fondement essentiel mais méconnu de l’Église mésobyzantine. Malgré la relative rareté des sources, il est possible d’en retracer l’histoire et les grandes évolutions : une part importante de l’hagiographie de l’iconoclasme et post-iconoclaste concerne en effet métropolites et évêques, témoignant du lien fort existant entre ceux-ci et le peuple des cités dont ils ont la charge, particulièrement quand ils sont considérés saints par la population. De nombreuses sources épistolaires, ecclésiastiques et sigillographiques, émanant des évêques eux-mêmes, permettent d’approcher les réalités du corps épiscopal et celles de la société provinciale qu’il représente auprès des autorités centrales. L’évêque apparaît également comme le relais des volontés impériale et patriarcale dans les provinces de l’Empire. Dans un contexte de compétition de pouvoir avec les autorités locales, l’évêque tente ainsi d’imposer le sien propre, dans ses aspects spatiaux, sociaux, religieux et symboliques. L’approche collective et les approches individuelles de l’épiscopat doivent permettre de comprendre les réalités sociales d’un Empire de plus en plus centré sur sa capitale et dont sont progressivement détachées, du moins dans les sources, les périphéries. Une histoire décentrée de l’Empire byzantin passe dès lors par des études régionales mais aussi par des études consacrées à des groupes sociaux enracinés dans tout l’Empire, surtout lorsque, comme les évêques, ils revendiquent la spécificité de leur région et leur attachement à une société provinciale qui constitue le socle de l’Empire. / The episcopate is an essential structure of the middle-Byzantine Church ; however, it remains little known. Although sources are limited, its history and evolution can still be reconstructed, as a large portion of the iconoclastic and post-iconoclastic hagiography deals with metropolitans and bishops. The sources reveal the strong connection between bishops and the inhabitants of the cities under their responsibility, especially when the population considers them as saints. Numerous epistolary, ecclesiastic and sigillographic documents issued by bishops themselves partially unveil the realities of the episcopal group and the provincial society that bishops represent to the central authorities. The bishop also serves as relay of both imperial and patriarchal wills to the provinces of the Empire. Competing with local authorities, the bishop thus tries to impose his own influence in its spatial, social, religious and symbolic dimensions. Both collective and individual approaches of the episcopate make the social realities of the Empire more understandable, as it becomes more and more focused on its capital city while its peripheries gradually move away, which documentation seems to imply. Regional studies, but also studies focused on social groups established across the whole Empire, are the fundamentals of a decentred history of the Byzantine Empire. This is especially true since social groups such as bishops claim the specificity of their regions and their link to a provincial society that represents the cornerstone of the Empire.

Cette thèse traite de la faillite du système juridique dans les vieux fabliaux français. En comparant les fabliaux aux étendues légales de la période, il devient évident que les auteurs des fabliaux étaient en possession d'une connaissance minutieuse et complète du système juridique. Une connaissance qu'ils n'ont pas hésité à incorporer à leurs histoires. Pourtant ce sont les faiblesses inhérentes et les perversions récurrentes du système judiciaire et de la corruption de ses représentants qui se tiennent dans les fabliaux pendant qu'ils présentent une vision d'un monde dans lequel la justice est au mieux incertaine. Ces fabliaux offrent une critique fréquemment amère du système légal, tant laïc qu'ecclésiastique, aussi bien que de ses autorités dont le pouvoir de mains est tenu. Le monde fermé de l'épopée Chrétienne, absolue et immuable, mène dans les fabliaux à l'absence du point de référence qui peut être pris comme un donné. / This thesis treats of the bankruptcy of the legal system in the old french fabliaux. By comparing the fabliaux to the legal tracts of the period, it becomes evident that the fabulists have been in possession of a thorough and complete knowledge of the judicial system. A knowledge which they did not hesitate to incorporate into their stories. Yet it is the inherent weaknesses and recurrent perversions of the legal system and the corruption of its representatives which stands out in the fabliaux as they present a vision of a world in which justice is at best uncertain. These fabliaux offer a frequently bitter criticism of the legal system, both secular and ecclesiastic, as well as of their authorities whose power of hands is held. The closed world of the Christian epic, absolute and immutable, leeds in the fabliaux to the absence of point of reference which can be taken as a data.

This study has investigated the debate about allowing women to be consecrated as priests that started as a propositon at the Church meetings in Sweden between 1957 and 1958. The essay's purpose was to shed light on the newspaper debate attitude towards the introduction of female priests, focusing on the debates that took place in two dioceses: Gothenburg and Växjö. It presents the arguments for and against female priests that occur in the studies material. Furthermore, the study has also examined which groups argued for and against female priests with a grouping by gender. The study has in a larger sense tried to bring greater understanding of gender relations in theological circles in the 1950s. To examine this the study is based on debate articles and letters to the editor in local newspapers from the two dioceses.    The primary result of the essay was that the secular arguments for and against female priests was based on the perception that men and women are different to each other and that this could either hurt or help the church. Some also argued that men and women are the same and that they therefore should be allowed in the priesthood. Regarding the theological arguments, revolves around how the Bible should be interpreted in the modern day. Furthermore, the study showed that both dioceses argued in majority for female priests, but the resistance was greater in Gothenburg and amongst men in both dioceses.

The present study aims at assessing the changes that non-governmental international cooperation has suffered from the nineties onwards, especially with regards to strategy, management and finance. The focus was the analysis of the German ecclesiastic development agencies EED, MISEREOR and BROT FÜR DIE WELT, important players in the history of Brazilian social organizations. The premise for the investigation is the fact that changes in nongovernmental international cooperation are related to each period’s hegemonic development ideals, with that of the nineties standing out for the expansion in neoliberal principles. With the increasing intensification of social contradictions, emerged within the neoliberal ideology the paradigm of human development, supported by a new social consensus, which the nongovernmental was invited to take part, sharing guidelines and agendas of international organizations official cooperation for development. To study the changes in the German ecclesiastical agencies, this study will look into the principles defined by multilateral organs concerning CAD/OCDE aiming at strengthening the consensus on new ideals for fighting poverty, attending to the role of non-governmental entities in such speeches. European Union cooperation development policies are assessed, checking their convergence with internationally established principles and agendas, as well as the relationship between Member States and the Community with respect to such policies. Finally, it is essential to analyze the German case’s peculiarities, looking into the German State’s fundamental characteristics and its relation with the country’s social cells. The features of the relationship with German ecclesiastic development agencies is assessed through documents supplied by the German Cooperation Ministry (BMZ). Also, through interviews with such agencies’ coordinators, it is possible to verify evidence of changes in strategy, management and finance resulting from the development ideals consolidated after the nineties and mainly on year 2000’s first decade, in the core of international development cooperation.

The submitted work aims to clerify changes of the image of the site of pilgrimage called Křemešník in social memory during the dynamic 20th century. Author leans on her bachelor's thesis, which was focused on Křemešník in the first thirty years of the 20th century. Now she tried to describe rivalry of ecclesiastic and touristic segment in the first half of the 20th century, replaced by establishment of the communist dictatorship. The reports of the church secretaries helped to find out the attitude of ruling power to Křemešník, means of changing or deleting the memory of the site and the success rate of this effort. Attention was also paid to perception of Křemešník by ordinary people, compared with contemporary state using a questionnaire. Extant written sources were supplemented with memories of contemporary witnesses.

On the one hand, followers of the marketing practices argue that it is an option which is available for the Catholic Church to efficiently fulfill its objectives. On the other hand, opposers to the marketing practices affirm the incompatibility between the marketing logic and the prophetical logic of the jewish-christian tradition. This group postulates that the marketing logic is attached to that one of the consumist society and, therefore, to the capitalism logic. Their criticisms to capitalism is, consequently extended to marketing itself. Given this controversy, this dissertation has, as its main goal, showing there is no contradiction in the usage of some marketing techniques in the evangelization practice by groups committed to the prophetic criticism about the consumist culture, in order to gain more efficacy in its prophetic practice. Hence, we intend to show that there is contradiction between the marketing logic and the prophetic logic, but there is not such contradiction between the usage of marketing techniques and the prophetic mission of christianism. As for the methodological approach, we have chosen to apply the bibliographical research, which was primarily based on the following authors: Peter Drucker and Philip Kotler, key contributors to define the meaning of marketing in the Marketing and Business Administration area, Jung Mo Sung who contributed in the analysis of the relationships among marketing logic, prophetical logic and evangelization and Afonso Murad who was an important reference to articulate the concepts of management and strategy in the evangelization practice.(AU) / A proposta de utilização do marketing na ação evangelizadora da Igreja Católica provoca debates entre os diversos segmentos da instituição. Por um lado, setores favoráveis defendem que a utilização do marketing religioso é uma alternativa disponível para Igreja Católica buscar a eficácia na realização de seus objetivos. Por outro lado, setores contrários ao marketing religioso afirmam que há incompatibilidade entre a lógica do marketing e a lógica profética da tradição judaico-cristã. Estes setores assumem a visão de que a lógica do marketing está articulada à lógica da sociedade do consumo, e, portanto, à lógica do capitalismo. Como são críticos ao capitalismo, passam a ser, também, contrários ao uso do marketing na ação eclesial. Diante desta controvérsia, esta dissertação tem o objetivo de mostrar que não há contradição na utilização de algumas técnicas de marketing na ação evangelizadora dos setores católicos comprometidos com a crítica profética à cultura do consumo, a fim de que sua ação profética seja mais eficaz. Nesse sentido, pretendemos mostrar que, de fato, há contradição entre a lógica do marketing e a lógica profética, mas que não existe, necessariamente, contradição entre o uso de algumas técnicas de marketing e a missão profética do cristianismo. Como procedimentos metodológicos, optamos por uma pesquisa bibliográfica a partir dos seguintes referenciais teóricos: Peter Drucker e Philip Kotler foram importantes para fundamentar o significado do marketing nas áreas de Marketing e de Administração. No campo das Ciências da Religião os referenciais teóricos foram Jung Mo Sung, que contribuiu com o estudo das relações entre lógica do mercado, lógica profética e evangelização, e Afonso Murad, que foi importante para articular os conceitos de gestão e de estratégia na ação evangelizadora.(AU)

It´s creator, a north american missionary called John James Ransom intended a non sectarian doctrinarian and orientational newspaper, in accordance with the wesleyan tradition. But the Methodista Catholico had a short life: within less than a year it became the Expositor Cristão. The brazilian religious field was then under an apologetic controversy, with the insertion of mission protestantism, from anglo-saxon origin, opposing the Roman Catholicism. The name of the newborn newspaper was one more victim of the confrontations. This work put itself to evaluate how the newspaper treated the question of ecumenism since this period until the entry of the Methodist Church in the CONIC, National Council of Christian Churches, at the beginning of the decade of 1980. The research found that the deep rooted anti catholicism in brazilian Methodism at it´s prime never disappeared completely. Also realised that the Methodism was not immune to the conflicts that existed among the denominations of the evangelical world. In spite of the well acknowledged pioneering of the Methodist church in creating brazilian ecumenic organisations, ecumenism always faced internal barriers, more or less disguised. The newspaper Expositor Cristão, created to be a medium of information and doctrinarian formation, not always showed with the necessary clarity which meaning the Methodist Church confer to the word ecumenism and how the Church practices it. In some moments, the coexistence between ecumenism and anti ecumenism in the heart of the methodist field was not brought under the light of the debates of the newspaper, but remained hidden due to omissions and ambivalences. This is what this work could notice from a qualitative evaluation of the newspaper content´s.(AU) / O jornal Expositor Cristão, órgão oficial da Igreja Metodista no Brasil, nasceu em 1886, com uma proposta que se poderia chamar de ecumênica: seu primeiro nome, Methodista Catholico, revela o desejo de universalidade, confirmado pelo editorial de estréia. Seu criador, o missionário norte-americano John James Ransom, pretendia um veículo de orientação doutrinária que não fosse sectário, em consonância com a tradição wesleyana. Mas o Metodista Católico teve vida curta: em pouco mais de um ano passou a se chamar Expositor Cristão. O campo religioso brasileiro vivia, então, o período da controvérsia apologética, com a inserção do protestantismo de missão, de origem anglo-saxã, em contraposição ao catolicismo romano. O nome do recém-nascido jornal foi mais uma vítima dos embates. Este trabalho se dispôs a avaliar como o jornal tratou a questão do ecumenismo desde esse período até a entrada da Igreja Metodista no CONIC, Conselho Nacional de Igrejas Cristãs, no início da década de 1980. A pesquisa constatou que o anticatolicismo arraigado no metodismo brasileiro em seus primórdios jamais desapareceu por completo. Notou também que o metodismo não esteve imune aos conflitos interdenominacionais existentes no próprio meio evangélico. Em que pese o reconhecido pioneirismo da Igreja Metodista na criação de organismos ecumênicos brasileiros, o ecumenismo sempre enfrentou barreiras internas, mais ou menos explícitas. E o jornal Expositor Cristão, criado para ser um veículo de informação e formação doutrinária, nem sempre comunicou com a necessária clareza qual o significado que a Igreja Metodista confere à palavra ecumenismo e como ela o pratica. Em alguns momentos, a coexistência entre ecumenismo e antiecumenismo no interior do campo metodista não foi trazida à luz dos debates pelo jornal, mas permaneceu oculta por omissões e ambivalências. É o que este trabalho pôde constatar a partir de uma avaliação qualitativa do conteúdo do jornal.(AU)
