Resumo: | Daoism is a religion of Chinese origins that since the 19th century started to have contact with the Brazilian culture, beneath the Orientalism force. Since the second half of the 20th century, we see a second wave of Daoism spread, albeit indirectly. In the 1970s the Wǔ family – Wu Jyh Cherng within them (Wǔ Zhìchéng) – migrates from Taiwan to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. In the 1990s, this Taiwanese naturalized Brazilian priest of the Way of the Celestial Masters founded the Daoist Society of Brazil (Sociedade Taoísta do Brasil - STB) along Brazilians, and later the Daoist Society in São Paulo (Sociedade Taoísta SP - ST-SP), which is our object of study. The goal here was to analyze the Daoism transplantation process in Brazil through the STB and ST-SP. In addition to a systematization of the authors regarding the transplantation of religions theory, we were based on the theory of cultural hybridization, and a set of interpreters of Brazilian culture and Brazilian religion. We created the central hypothesis that in the STB and ST-SP the Daoism would be increasingly a hybrid result of the Brazilian religious matrix and an ideal model of Daoist linked to China. Methodologically, we conducted an extensive and constant literature review, and we refer to primary printed sources, virtual and audiovisual sources, participatory research, semi-structured interviews and informal conversations. With these data, we performed an analysis using the theoretical framework, which allowed us to confirm the central hypothesis. We also wove systematic contributions on: the presence and the type of Daoism entry in Brazil, identification of socio-historical phases of STB and ST-SP, and several observations about the process and results of transplantation of this Daoist group, such as the accommodation of the Brazilian religious demands on the liturgical rituals of these institutions. |

Desde a segunda metade do século XX observamos uma segunda onda de difusão do Daoismo, ainda indireta. Na década de 1970 a família Wǔ, dentro eles Wu Jyh Cherng (Wǔ Zhìchéng), migra de Taiwan ao Brasil, no Rio de Janeiro. Nos anos 1990, este taiwanês abrasileirado, sacerdote do Caminho dos Mestres Celestiais, fundou junto com brasileiros a Sociedade Taoísta do Brasil (STB), e, mais tarde, a Sociedade Taoísta em São Paulo (ST-SP), nossos objetos de estudo. O objetivo aqui foi analisar o processo de transplantação do Daoismo ao Brasil através da STB e ST-SP. Além de uma sistematização dos autores da teoria da transplantação das religiões, nos fundamentamos na teoria da hibridação cultural, e num conjunto de intérpretes da cultura e religião brasileira. Criamos a hipótese central de que na STB e ST-SP o Daoismo seria cada vez mais um resultado híbrido da matriz religiosa brasileira e de um modelo ideal de daoista ligado à China. Metodologicamente, realizamos uma vasta e constante revisão bibliográfica, e nos servimos de fontes primárias impressas, virtuais e audiovisuais, pesquisa participativa, entrevistas semiestruturadas e conversas informais. Com os dados obtidos, realizamos uma análise através do quadro teórico, o que permitiu comprovar a hipótese central. Também tecemos contribuições sistematizadas sobre: presença e tipologia da entrada do Daoismo no Brasil, identificação de fases sócio-históricas da STB e ST-SP, e diversas observações acerca do processo e dos resultados da transplantação desse grupo daoista, como a acomodação da demanda religiosa brasileira nos rituais litúrgicos das instituições.Editora PUC Minas2015-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTítulosapplication/pdfhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/horizonte/article/view/P.2175-5841.2015v13n39p170610.5752/P.2175-5841.2015v13n39p1706HORIZONTE - Revista de Estudos de Teologia e Ciências da Religião; vol. 13, n. 39, jul./set. 2015 - Dossiê: Relações de Gênero e Religião; 1706-1708HORIZONTE - Journal of Studies in Theology and Religious Sciences; Vol. 13, no. 39, July/Sept. 2015 - Dossier: Gender and Religion; 1706-17082175-5841reponame:Horizonte - Revista de Estudos de Teologia e Ciências da Religiãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas)instacron:PUC_MINSporhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/horizonte/article/view/P.2175-5841.2015v13n39p1706/8656Costa, Matheus Oliva dainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2018-06-11T15:01:38Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/10559Revistahttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/horizonteONGhttp://periodicos.pucminas.br/index.php/horizonte/oaihorizonte.pucminas@gmail.com2175-58411679-9615opendoar:2018-06-11T15:01:38Horizonte - Revista de Estudos de Teologia e Ciências da Religião - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Minas Gerais (PUC Minas)false |
