The Council of Trent, held in the sixteenth century, built an ideal-type of priest that lasted unchanged over nearly four hundred years. During this long period, the priests were trained in seminaries closed and they did not have contacts with the "secular world". Now with the Vatican II the model is broken in favor of another kind of idea, where the elders should work closer to their faithful. The formative system is transformed and the close ancients institutions in open seminaries where the future priests have freedom to work together to community. Rather than analyze these two formatives patterns, we arise historical line of the foundation of the Claretianas Congregation and how it has adapted over the years to change the seminars as well as the positive and negative consequences from this reformed process. Having conscience that we will comment a subject that is the backbone of the Catholic Church, we will use theoretical reference of the sociology and history to obtain better comprehension of the delicate and controversial formative process inside of the seminaries / Essa dissertação examina a formação sacerdotal católica, comparando o período anterior e posterior ao Concílio Vaticano II, analisando especificamente os efeitos das transformações no processo formativo para a Congregação dos Missionários Filhos do Imaculado Coração Maria, conhecidos como Missionários Claretianos. O Concílio de Trento, ocorrido no século XVI construiu um tipo-ideal de sacerdote que perdurou praticamente sem alterações ao longo de quase quatrocentos anos. Durante este longo período, os sacerdotes eram formados em Seminários fechados, com quase nenhum acesso ao mundo secular . Com o Vaticano II esse modelo é desfeito em prol da construção de outro, onde os presbíteros deveriam atuar de maneira mais próxima a seus fiéis. O sistema formativo é transformado e as antigas instituições fechadas dão lugar a Seminários abertos onde os futuros sacerdotes possuem liberdades para trabalhar junto à comunidade. Mais do que analisar esses dois modelos formativos, levantaremos traços históricos da fundação da Congregação Claretiana e como a mesma se adaptou ao longo dos anos às transformações dos Seminários, bem como as consequencias positivas e negativas oriundas desses processos reformadores. Tendo a consciência de que abordaremos um objeto que faz parte da espinha dorsal da religião católica, utilizaremos referenciais teóricos da sociologia e história para obter uma melhor compreensão do delicado e controverso processo formativo no interior dos Seminários

This research seeks to acquire a deep understanding of how spirituality and mission correlate and shape each other. An initial review of missiological texts has revealed that spirituality is not often (nor explicitly) taken into consideration by missiologists. Likewise, mission generally does not occupy a central place within the academic discipline of spirituality. I contend that spirituality is the motor of mission and missiology and therefore cannot be only briefly mentioned or omitted from missiological discourse. This thesis explores this relationship with a specific focus on the Comboni Missionary Sisters. It explores the mission spirituality of their founder, Daniel Comboni, how this is taken up by the Comboni Missionary Sisters and how it shapes their lives and their being in mission. The research also aims to foster some transformations. It explores new ways for the Sisters to express their ways of being in mission in the context(s) in which they live, in order to be faithful to Comboni’s charism as well as to be a relevant presence today. The thesis proposes that mission spirituality be studied and lived by making use a Mission spirituality spiral. Its six dimensions are: spirituality, at the centre and all along the spiral; encounter with other(s) and with the context; context analysis; theological reflection (encounter with Scripture and Tradition); discernment for transformative ways of being in mission and reflexivity. A qualitative analysis is presented from interviews conducted with fifteen Comboni Missionary Sisters working in various continents. Genuine encounter with the Triune God, with the other(s), with the context and its analysis, and encounter with Scripture and Tradition lead to transformation in the person and subsequently to finding new ways of being in mission. The mission spirituality spiral is used as an analytical tool to study the mission spirituality of Comboni and the Comboni Missionary Sisters and also as a mobilising tool. Suggestions for further areas of research are made. The thesis concludes with some personal learning and transformation. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / D. Th. (Missiology)

This thesis explores prevailing and changing attitudes among Protestant Christians as manifested in the World Missionary Conference of 1910, held in Edinburgh, Scotland. It compares the conference to missionary literature to demonstrate how well it fit the context of the missionary endeavor during the Edwardian era. It examines the issues of race and empire in the thinking of conference participants. It pays particular attention to the position of West Africa and West Africans in conference deliberations. It suggests that the conference, which took place soon after the scramble for empire and just before World War I and the subsequent upsurge of nationalism and anti-colonialism, offers a valuable historical perspective on the uneven nature of globalizing Christianity.
