Resumo: The main objective of this work was to analyze the sermon Heaven, a World of Love, by Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758), under the rhetorical echo of the Protestant Reform. This was the last one of the Charity and its fruits series, preached in 1738 and published only posthumously. It is an exegesis of 1 Corinthians 13 about the need of the manifestation of the Christian virtues, being charity or love the greatest of them, and therefore the only one that will remain in the heavenly universe in an improved and supreme way, when all the others cease. Meanwhile, we were able to understand the importance of literature in its elocutio. For this, we dealt, firstly, with rhetoric, making a historical overview on the subject. Then, we focused on the study of rhetoric within the scope of the Protestant Reform and how it echoed in Puritanism. Finally, we dedicated to the analyze the sermon focusing on dispositio, which refers to the ordering of the speech, and also on elocutio, which are the linguistic expressions of the thoughts formulated in the inventio. As a result, we found that the appropriation of aesthetic resources by Edwards was in order to promote the desired rhetorical effect in the public, the conversion, whether through emotion, fear or affection for beauty.

Este, foi o último da série Charity and its fruits, pregada em 1738 e publicada apenas postumamente. Trata-se uma exegese de 1 Coríntios 13 sobre a necessidade da manifestação das virtudes cristãs, sendo a caridade ou amor a maior delas, e, portanto, a única que permanecerá no universo celestial de forma aperfeiçoada e suprema, quando todas as demais cessarem. Entrementes, nos foi possível compreender a importância da literatura em sua elocutio. Para isso, tratamos, em primeiro lugar, acerca da retórica, fazendo um apanhado histórico sobre o tema. Em seguida, detivemo-nos ao estudo da retórica dentro do âmbito da Reforma Protestante e como esta veio a ecoar no Puritanismo. Por fim, dedicamo-nos à análise do sermão focando na dispositio, que se refere à ordenação do discurso, e também na elocutio, que são as expressões linguísticas dos pensamentos formulados na inventio. Como resultado, constatamos que a apropriação dos recursos estéticos por Edwards foi a fim de promover o efeito retórico desejado no público, a conversão, fosse pela razão, comoção, medo ou pelo afeiçoamento à beleza.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2022-05-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo avaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/5426610.23925/2236-9937.2022v26p307-333Teoliteraria - Journal of Literatures and Theologies (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 12 No. 26 (2022): Temas de Teologias e Literaturas; 307-333Teoliteraria - Revista de Literaturas y Teologías (On Line) ISSN 2236-9937; Vol. 12 Núm. 26 (2022): Temas de Teologias e Literaturas; 307-333TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologias; v. 12 n. 26 (2022): Temas de Teologias e Literaturas; 307-3332236-9937reponame:Teoliteráriainstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/54266/39682https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/teoliteraria/article/view/54266/40189Copyright (c) 2022 TEOLITERARIA - Revista de Literaturas e Teologiashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCorreia, Raynara Karenina Veríssimo2022-05-27T11:27:29Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/54266Revistahttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliterariaPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/teoliteraria/oaialex@teoliteraria.com||teoliteraria@teoliteraria.com2236-99372236-9937opendoar:2022-05-27T11:27:29Teoliterária - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
