Este artigo está focado nos diversos modos de articulação entre o Tambor de Mina – a religião afro-brasileira prevalecente entre a população afrodescendente de São Luís (a capital do estado do Maranhão) –, e as festas do Espírito Santo – uma festa católica que é a mais importante celebração pública nas casas de culto de Tambor de Mina. A minha ênfase é nos processos criativos associados a esses diversos modos de articulação. Argumento que esses processos estão ligados, por um lado, às políticas mais amplas de gestão das fronteiras entre gêneros religiosos que cada casa de culto adota e, por outro lado, a diferentes políticas de exibição e contenção centradas na (in)visibilidade do Tambor de Mina no espaço público. O artigo é uma contribuição tanto para os debates antropológicos sobre criatividade como para as discussões sobre processos de interface entre diferentes gêneros religiosos nas religiões afro-brasileiras.ABSTRACTThis paper is focused on the diverse modes of articulation between Tambor de Mina – the African-Brazilian religion prevalent among the Afro-descendent population of São Luís (the state capital of Maranhão, Brazil) – and Holy Ghost feasts – a Catholic feast that is the most important public celebration in Tambor de Mina cult houses. My emphasis is on the creative processes associated with these diverse modes of articulation. I argue that these processes are connected, on the one hand, to the wider politics of management of the boundaries between religious genres that each cult house adopts and, on the other hand, to different politics of display and containment centred on the (in)visibility of Tambor de Mina in the public space. The paper is both a contribution to recent anthropological debates on creativity and to recent discussions on processes of interface between different religious genres in African-Brazilian religions.

This article is centred on the diverse modes of articulation between Tambor de Mina – the African-Brazilian religion prevalent among the Black population of São Luís (the state capital of Maranhão, Brazil) – and Holy Ghost feasts – a Catholic feast that is the most important public celebration in Tambor de Mina cult houses. My focus is on the creative processes associated with these diverse modes of articulation. I argue that these processes are connected, on one hand, to the wider politics of boundary management between religious genres that each cult house adopts and, on the other hand, to different politics of display and containment centred on the visibility of Tambor de Mina in the public space.

On July 26, 1880, Benedito, the most notorious quilombola, or maroon, in São Mateus, the northern region of Espírito Santo province, Brazil, disappeared from the public prison in a flamboyant escape. After his drunken guards fell asleep, Benedito placed a cleaning bucket on top of his cot and employed it as a stepping-stone in tandem with a rope made from his bedsheet to scale the back wall enclosing the cell. He leapt to the other side, opened the back door, and slipped out noiselessly. Rendering the situation even more preposterous to those who discovered him gone were the handcuffs that lay on the floor smeared with sheep fat, which he had used to slip his hands out without forcing the locks.

O Espírito Santo engendra uma dinâmica comunional na Igreja, mediante os carismas, que instauram uma estrutura permanente carismático-ministerial-alterativa, que é comum às diversas comunidades neotestamentárias, não obstante modelos organizacionais diferentes. Isso permite superar a dicotomia clero/laicato, sem prejuízo para o ministério ordenado e, ao mesmo tempo, fundamentando o protagonismo dos leigos na missão e sua co-participação nas decisões da Igreja. Abstract: Through the Charismas, the Holy Spirit engenders a dynamic communion in the Church which establishes a permanent and articulate structure between charisma and ministries, which is usual to the diverse New Testament communities, though with dijferent organizaiional models. This fact overcomes the dichotomy clergy-laity, without damage to the ordained ministry, and at the same time laying the foundation for the lead of the lay people in the mission and its co-participation in the decisions of the church.

Resumen: Distintas intervenciones desde prácticas activistas y culturales en torno al VIH escenifican poéticas y políticas del resto corporal en las que se juegan, por un lado, una reorganización de los modos en que se dramatiza en umbral entre lo vivo y lo muerto en lo público –redefiniendo así el tejido mismo de lo que llamamos “comunidad”—; y por otro, indican los modos en que estos activismos impulsan una disputa sobre los “marcos de temporalización” desde los cuales lo viviente se vuelve reconocible políticamente y donde la noción de supervivencia adquiere una centralidad decisiva. Combinando materiales heterogéneos el artículo busca iluminar los modos en que los activismos y las culturas en torno al VIH configuran un terreno decisivo para pensar políticas de la supervivencia del presente. Palabras clave: VIH, ACT-UP, Supervivencia, Temporalidades, Biopolítica. Abstract: Different interventions from activist and cultural practices around HIV staged poetics and politics of the body remmant. They implie, on the one hand, a reorganitzation of the dramatization of the threshold between the living and the dead in the public space; and on the other, they indicate the ways in which these activisms mobilize a dispute over the “frames of temporalization” from which the living becomes politically recognizable and where the notion of survival acquires a decisive centrality. Combining heterogeneous materials, the article seeks to illuminate the ways in which activism and cultures on HIV constitute a decisive ground for thinking about the present policies of survival. Keywords: IHV, ACT-UP, Survival, Biopolitics.

<p>Dentre as cultivares de aveia-preta, optou-se pela cultivar Embrapa 29 (Garoa) por ser uma espécie de boa produção de massa e adaptada às condições da região Sudeste. Mas, não há estudo do cultivo da aveia-preta para a região norte do Espírito Santo. Portanto, avaliar o crescimento e desenvolvimento da Avena strigosa cultivar Embrapa 29 (Garoa) nas condições edafoclimáticas do norte do ES, torna-se de suma importância para região, visto que essa propicia várias melhorias na qualidade do solo. A área onde foi instalado o experimento, pertence à Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, Centro Universitário Norte do Espírito Santo-CEUNES, câmpus de São Mateus – ES. A semeadura foi realizada com uma máquina de plantio direto em sulcos espaçados de 0,30 m. Não realizou a correção da acidez do solo e nem aplicações de adubos minerais e orgânicos. Mesmo com o plantio tardio, a aveia-preta teve um bom desenvolvimento nas condições edafoclimáticas da região norte do ES. Este, possivelmente, foi beneficiado pela textura, visto que não há nenhum impedimento para o sistema radicular da planta. A aveia-preta desenvolve bem nas condições edafoclimáticas da região de São Mateus-ES, principalmente, sobre um Argiloso Amarelo de textura do tipo areia-franca.</p><p align="center"><strong><em>Oat planting in the region of São Mateus in the State of Espirito Santo, Brazil</em></strong></p><p><strong>Abstract</strong><strong>: </strong>Among the cultivars of oat, it was decided to Embrapa 29 (Garoa) to be a good kind of mass production and adapted to the conditions in the Southeast. But there is no study of the cultivation of oat to the northern region of the Holy Spirit. Therefore, assessing the growth and development of <em>Avena strigosa</em> Embrapa 29 (Garoa) at conditions of northern ES, it is of paramount importance for the region, since this provides a number of improvements in soil quality. The area where the experiment was conducted, belongs to the Federal University of Espirito Santo, University Center North-CEUNES Holy Spirit campus of St. Matthew - ES. Sowing was carried out with a tillage machine in spaced grooves of 0.30 m. Did not make the correct soil acidity and, mineral and organic fertilizers applications. Even with the late planting, oat had a good development in the environmental conditions of the northern region ES. This possibly benefited from the texture, since there is no impediment to the root system of the plant. The black oats grow well in soil and climatic conditions of São Mateus-ES region, mainly on a Yellow Argillaceous type of texture sand-franca.</p>

Iniciando o nº 1333, o Catecismo da Igreja Católica afirma que o pão e o vinho se tornam o corpo e o sangue de Cristo “pelas palavras de Cristo e pela invocação do Espírito Santo”. Esta afirmação constitui um progresso teológico e uma volta à grande tradição, superando a tese vigente na Igreja latina da eficácia exclusiva das palavras da instituição, identificadas como “palavras da consagração”. Esse progresso foi possibilitado pela redescoberta da unidade literária e teológica da anáfora ou oração eucarística que não permite isolar as “palavras da consagração” do contexto oracional em que se inserem. A concepção presente no citado texto do Catecismo volta à tradição conservada durante todo o primeiro milênio do cristianismo, cujos resquícios se podem encontrar inclusive nos inícios da Escolástica. Documentos ecumênicos recentes mostram que a importância da ação do Espírito Santo na eucaristia é patrimônio comum das Igrejas cristãs.Abstract: At the beginning of number 1333, the Catechism of the Catholic Church affirms that the bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ “by the words of Christ and the invocation of the Holy Spirit.” This statement is a theological progress and a return to the great tradition, surpassing the thesis prevailing in the Latin Church that affirms the exclusive efficiency of the words of the institution, identified as “words of consecration”. This progress was made possible by the rediscovery of the literary and theological unity of the anaphora or Eucharistic prayer which does not allow the extraction of the “words of consecration” from the clausal context into which they are inserted. The conception prevailing in the Catechism text quoted returns to the tradition maintained throughout the first millennium of Christianity, traces of which can be found even in the beginnings of Scholasticism. Recent ecumenical documents show that the importance of the action of the Holy Spirit in the Eucharist is the common heritage of the Christian Churches.

This chapter shows how developments outlined in previous chapters informed Gregory’s later works, focusing especially on On the Deity of the Son and the Holy Spirit and the Catechetical Oration. In particular, it demonstrates connections between To Ablabius and On the Deity, as well as links between Epistle 3 and the anti-Apollinarian works on the one hand and the Catechetical Oration on the other. It shows how the economic theology developed there reflects Gregory’s sense of liturgical time and examines the Catechetical Oration’s two Trinitarian sections. One of these treats the doctrine under the topic of the baptismal mystery, while the other detaches it from this context, offering an analogy for the Trinitarian unity meant to persuade Greek and Jewish interlocutors, but in fact treating them as stand-ins for Christian heresies. Thus the chapter claims that Gregory’s notion of Trinitarian orthodoxy is strongest when framed as an account of baptism.

This chapter considers mystical theology as a resource for theology of the Trinity today. It consists of two parts. The first part draws mainly on the Trinitarian theology of St Bonaventure to demonstrate that participation in the life of the Trinity is essential to begin to engage in theology of the Trinity: vision implies participation. The second part provides an example of how the writings of mystical theological authors, such as Hadewijch or Ruusbroec, can assist us in solving systematic theological problems. More particularly, we argue that Ruusbroec’s notion of regyratio (i.e. the Holy Spirit as the principle of the return of the divine Person into their shared unity) can circumvent the problem of ‘Trinitarian inversion’ (which refers to the problematic tension between accounts of the immanent processions, on the one hand, and the sequence of historical missions of the Son and Holy Spirit in the economic Trinity, on the other).

Síntese: O artigo trabalha, à luz dos escritos de Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955), uma possível articulação entre cristologia-pneumatologia e, consequentemente, uma aproximação ao mistério trinitário em sua interpretação mística da evolução cósmica. Indagamos: como compreender a articulação entre Cristo e o Espírito na cosmovisão teilhardiana? No bojo dessa reflexão é possível constatar a revelação de Deus como Trindade? Tendo em vista os objetos de nossa investigação, segue-se um percurso que tem início com o relato da concepção da presença universal de Cristo no cosmo e nossa visão acerca do movimento do Espírito Santo no coração da “Terra Mater”. Em seguida, apresentamos uma perspectiva da dinâmica trinitária no universo evolutivo. Ensejamos, enfim, encontrar intuições que brotam da pesquisa para um estilo de vida segundo o Espírito e seus desdobramentos em um contexto secularizado.Palavras-chave: Cristologia. Pneumatologia. Trindade. Cosmovisão teilhardiana.Abstract: This article examines, in the light of the writings of Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955), a possible Christological and pneumatological articulation and, consequently, the Mystery of the Trinity approach in his mystical interpretation of cosmic evolution. We asks: how to understand the relationship between Christ and the Spirit in Teilhardian worldview? At the centre this reflection it is possible to see God’s revelation as Trinity? In the center of our investigation, we follow the course which starts with a brief account of the universal presence of Christ in the cosmos and our vision of the movement of the Holy Spirit in the heart of the “Terra Mater”. In the following, we present an overview of the trinitarian dynamic in the evolutionary universe. Finally, we suggest some intuitions which arise in the research, to bring up a way to live according to the Spirit and its consequences in a secularized society.Keywords: Christology. Pneumatology. Trinity. Teilhardian Worldview.

Satan and his powers in the New Testament — especially as opposed to the Holy Spirit Growing tendencies towards "Satanism" on the one hand and extremes of "demon exorcism" on the other hand has in this century led to intensified theological reactions as to the reality of Satan and his demons. This article does not intend to be polemic. Notice has been taken of various theological viewpoints. However, the intent is to carefully and exegetically listen to the testimonies of New Testament Scriptures themselves with regard to: 1. the personal existence and work of Satan and his demons, known under various names; 2. the centrality of belief in the existence of Satan and his powers in their anti-God, anti-Christ works; 3. the interrelation of the existence and the works of Satan (and his powers) with that of the Holy Spirit.
