1	Caminhantes na senda reta : os santos mestres sufis da Andaluzia segundo os relatos de Ibn ʿArabī de Múrcia (Séc. XII e XIII E.C.) / Barcelos, Matheus Melo. January 2019 (has links) Orientador: Ivan Esperança Rocha / Banca: Cecilia Cintra Cavaleiro de Macedo / Banca: Carlos Frederico Barboza de Souza / Resumo: O sufismo, conceito e paradigma acadêmico, conglomera algumas práticas e especulações místicas/esotéricas na religião islâmica. Tradicionalmente, encontrava-se já no momento da revelação corânica e no período de pregação de Muḥammad, sendo reelaborado e institucionalizado, ao longo dos séculos. Entre seus pensadores, Ibn ʿArabī de Múrcia, andaluz que viveu no século XII e XIII da Era Comum, foi ponto de referência, ao sistematizar esse aprofundamento em obras utilizadas por todo o mundo islâmico. Esta pesquisa intenta analisar a vida de santos muçulmanos andaluzes, empregando as hagiografias escritas pelo citado autor, contendo extratos biográficos de seus mestres, para, com isso, perceber como o autor propunha uma via sufi a seus discípulos, cujos modelos retomavam aqueles do Ocidente islâmico, em meados dos séculos XII e XIII E.C. Propõem-se, neste trabalho, uma abordagem histórica do movimento místico islâmico que influenciou um dos maiores mestres do sufismo, bem como uma análise das hagiografias islâmicas e do conceito de santidade do sufismo em Ibn ʿArabī / Abstract: Sufism, concept and academic paradigm, conglomerates mystical / esoteric practices and speculations in the Islamic religion. Traditionally, it was already present at the time of the Quranic revelation and in the preaching period of Muḥammad, being reworked and institutionalized over the centuries. Among its thinkers, Ibn ʿArabī of Murcia, Andalusian who lived in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries of the Common Era, was a point of reference when systematizing this deep understanding in works used throughout the Islamic world. This research seeks to analyze the life of Andalusian Islamic saints, using the hagiographies written by the mentioned author, containing biographical extracts of their masters, in order to understand how the thought and the Sufi way were organized in the Islamic West in the middle of the XII century and XIII EC. This work proposes a historical approach to the Islamic mystical movement that influenced one of the greatest masters of Sufism, as well as the proposition of an analisis of Islamic hagiographies and the concept of sanctity of Sufism in Ibn ʿArabī view / Mestre Islamismo.

2	The prophetic Beowulf: heroic-hagiographic hybridity in Andreas, Juliana, and Beowulf Vinsonhaler, Nettie Christine 01 December 2013 (has links) Beowulf's contest with Grendel has universally been read as an assertion of heroic agency. Yet as I demonstrate, this purportedly neutral convention derives from the misreading of a riddle design that invites and then disrupts expectation in the accidental denouement of Grendel's self-destruction. As an alternative to heroic misprision, I locate Beowulf's salient analogues in the poetic hagiographies, Andreas and Juliana. Within these poems I demonstrate a distinctive Christian critique, which defines heroic order through its assertion of loyalty to insiders and enmity to outsiders, and aligns with René Girard's anthropology in marking enmity both as a source of social cohesion and instability. I also demonstrate a distinctive "crossover poetics" that switches godly and demonic attributes between the opposed communities. As this crossover design gives rise to tropes of heroic-hagiographic hybridity, it exposes a biblical prophetic distinction between the physical realm of objects, actions, and words, and the metaphysical realm of emotional, ethical, and relational principles--a distinction by which the poem locates the origin of enmity in the idolatrous gestalt of egoistic materialism and the origin of loyalty in the covenant ethos of transcendent affiliation. This crossover design, moreover, functions in rapprochement with heroic culture, to affirm the godliness of loyalty and reject demonic enmity, while also interrogating the idolatrous potentiality of Christian discourse. As an alternative to the instabilities marked within heroic social order, the hagiographies offer a new social order based in a two-fold conception: a Christological model that entails compassion for enemies and self-sacrificing obedience to the covenant ethos, and a prophetic model that resists violent contagion through egoistic effacement, entailed in acts of divine praise and benevolent prayer. Lacking these redemptive disciplines, Beowulf's pagan fictive world nevertheless incorporates the same hagiographic critique, but through dystopian patterns of demonic inversion. Thus, Beowulf synthesizes the cardinal hagiographic elements--the same narrative arcs, lexical patterns, and crossover poetics--in a drama that schools its audience in prophetic discernment: to see the essential, defining reality beneath the surface of human events and to recognize patterns of divine retribution as paradoxical enactments of demonic self- destruction.

Portadoras de valores idealizados pela Ordem dos Frades Menores, estas narrativas se tornaram um modelo para o reconhecimento e a legitimação das funções que a Ordem poderia assumir perante a sociedade em expansão material das cidades italianas medievais. Para realizar tal análise foi necessário utilizar conceitos que escapassem a abordagens singulares e maniqueístas, que destacam a vida material como um domínio social apartado das demais experiências históricas. Os textos hagiográficos foram interpretados com o auxílio das formulações teóricas do Primitivismo Econômico, destacando os nomes de Karl Polanyi e Max Weber. A partir do uso do método conhecido como “paradigma indiciário”, proposto Carlo Ginzburg, tratamos os indícios e os pequenos detalhes como evidencias que revelam uma realidade maior – um ethos idealizado a respeito da inserção dos frades na materialidade urbana de princípios do século XIII. A hipótese que norteia esta dissertação consiste na acepção de que as hagiografias foram veículos de transmissão de um status específico, o qual, tendo o personagem Francisco de Assis como um elemento central, articulava os ideais do pauperismo, da caridade e da fraternidade como meios de inserção dos frades nos domínios chamados econômicos – e não da negação do mesmo. São discutidos valores associados pelas hagiografias à redistribuição de excedentes, à legitimação de formas de status e ao modelo da ordem como paterfamilias e dispensador da vida material. / In this dissertation, we analyze the Minorite hagiographies written along the thirteenth century as as documents that carried an economic ethos. Filled with idealized values by the Order of Friars Minor, these narratives have become a model for the recognition and legitimation of the functions that the Order could take towards the society in material expansion of the medieval Italian cities. To perform such an analysis was necessary to use concepts that escape the natural and manichaean approaches that highlight material life as a social field apart from other historical experiences. The hagiographic texts were interpreted with the support of theoretical formulations of Economic Primitivism, highlighting the names of Karl Polanyi and Max Weber. From the use of the method known as "evidential paradigm", Carlo Ginzburg proposed, treat the signs and the small details as evidence that reveal a greater reality - an ethos devised regarding the insertion of the friars in the urban materiality of the thirteenth century principles. The hypothesis guiding this investigation is that: the hagiographies were vehicles for the transmission of a particular status , which, having Francis of Assisi character as a central element, articulated the ideals of pauperism, charity and brotherhood as a means for the insertion of the friars in the areas called economic - and not the denial of it. In these pages we discuss the values associated with redistribution of surplus, the legitimation of forms of status and the model of the Order as a paterfamilias and dispenser of material life.

4	“She said she was called Theodore” : - A modality analysis of five transcendental saints in the 1260’s Legenda Aurea and 1430’s Gilte Legende Atterving, Emmy January 2017 (has links) This thesis explores modalities in two hagiographical collections from the late Middle Ages; the Legenda Aurea and the Gilte Legende by drawing inspiration from post-colonial hybridity theories.. It conducts a close textual analysis by studying the use of pronouns in five saints’ legends where female saints transcend traditional gender identities and become men, and focuses on how they transcend, live as men, and die. The study concludes that the use of pronouns is fluid in the Latin Legenda Aurea, while the Middle English Gilte Legende has more female pronouns and additions to the texts where the female identity of the saints is emphasised. This is interpreted as a sign of the feminisation of religious language in Europe during the late Middle Ages, and viewed parallel with the increase of holy women at that time. By doing this, it underlines the importance of new words and concepts when describing and understanding medieval views on gender. saint saints transvestites transvestism transvestite saint marina marina marinus saint eugenia eugenia eugene saint theodora theodora theodore saint margaret margaret pelagius margaret margaret pelagia pelagius pelagia saint pelagia jacopo de fazio jacobus de voragine jacopo da varazze compiler dominican Golden legend legenda aurea legenda sanctorum gilte legende confessor martyr virgin hagiographies hagiography biography England Middle English sweden monastery monk abbot social experimentation space feminisation of language jesus as mother saint bridget of sweden saint mary holy virgin saint catherine of siena le roman de silences silence caroline walker bynum sanctity transcendence homi bhabha post-colonial postcolonial loomba hybridity hybridity theory gender gender fluidity crossdressing cross-dressing transgender laqueur linguistics modality nuyts medieval late medieval late middle ages middle ages late medieval period History and Archaeology Historia och arkeologi
