Resumo: | The missionary method used by Capuchin friars in Brazil in the XIXth century was based on two main assumptions: itinerancy and preaching. They preached to thousands of people, from north to south of Brazil, trying to instill guilt and urgent change in behavior before doomsday came. The second coming of Christ was announced to happen soon, and the believers should follow the lessons of the friars in order to achieve "salvation of the soul." This article aims therefore to analyze the religious practices of the friars and the first consequences emerged among people affected by their preaching. Encouraged to practice penitential acts, people gathered in communities trying to preserve what the agents of the Gospel had taught. Adapting the speech of the missionaries, laymen created "fraternities", dispensing with the intermediation of the State and the Church, and became suspicious to the authorities for organizing themselves outside the institutional control. |

Foram ouvidos por milhares de pessoas, de norte a sul do Brasil, buscando incutir culpa e mudança urgente nos comportamentos antes que o juiz do final dos tempos chegasse. A segunda vinda de Cristo era anunciada para breve, cabendo ao fiel seguir os ensinamentos dos frades para que pudessem alcançar a “salvação da alma”. Este artigo tem por objetivo, portanto, analisar as práticas religiosas dos frades e o primeiro desdobramento surgido entre os povos atingidos pelas pregações. Estimuladas a praticar atos penitenciais, pessoas reuniram-se em comunidades procurando preservar o que os agentes do Evangelho haviam ensinado. Adaptando o discurso dos missionários, leigos criaram “fraternidades”, prescindindo da intermediação do Estado e da Igreja, e tornando-se suspeitos para as autoridades por se organizarem fora do controle institucional.Editora FGV2015-09-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/42104Revista Estudos Históricos; Vol. 28 No. 55 (2015): Religion; 51-64Revista Estudos Históricos; v. 28 n. 55 (2015): Religião; 51-642178-14940103-2186reponame:Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVporhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/article/view/42104/54414Copyright (c) 2015 Revista Estudos Históricosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKarsburg, Alexandre2017-09-13T13:43:41Zoai:ojs.periodicos.fgv.br:article/42104Revistahttps://periodicos.fgv.br/rehONGhttps://periodicos.fgv.br/reh/oai||biblioteca.digital@fgv.br||eh@fgv.br2178-14940103-2186opendoar:2024-03-06T13:01:58.919007Estudos Históricos (Rio de Janeiro) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)true |
