Entre o amém e o axé: O trânsito religioso de evangélicos rumo às religiões afro-brasileiras no ABCD paulista

Esta pesquisa analisa o trânsito religioso de pessoas que tiveram a sua biografia religiosa marcada pela participação/envolvimento em cultos evangélicos e que atualmente se declaram praticantes de ritos de candomblé e umbanda na região do ABCD paulista . Para a realização da mesma conduzimos entrevistas com líderes religiosos que nos ajudaram a compreender a organização dos terreiros de umbanda e candomblé na região; também aplicamos 80 questionários em oito terreiros espalhados pela região, compreendendo assim o perfil socioeconômico de seus frequentadores. Durante a análise dos questionários verificou-se a ocorrência do trânsito, de maneira ainda mais intensa entre praticantes da umbanda, e analisamos as motivações para esta movimentação religiosa, identificando ainda as motivações de gênero para esta movimentação, além das relações de trocas simbólicas estabelecidas entre os fiéis e as instituições religiosas. Verificamos os principais grupos evangélicos por onde estes sujeitos religiosos transitaram, observando possíveis semelhanças, bem como o distanciamento de suas práticas cúlticas e as práticas dos cultos afro-brasileiros.

Technology, ritual and Anglo-Saxon agrarian production: the biography of a seventh-century century plough coulter from Lyminge, Kent

The discovery of an unusual early medieval plough coulter in a well-dated Anglo-Saxon settlement context in Kent suggests that continentally derived technology was in use in this powerful kingdom centuries before heavy ploughs were first depicted in Late Saxon manuscripts. The substantial investment required to manufacture the coulter, the significant damage and wear that it sustained during use and the circumstances of its ultimate ritual deposition are explored. Investigative conservation, high-resolution recording and metallographic analysis illuminate the form, function and use-life of the coulter. An examination of the deposition contexts of plough-irons in early medieval northern Europe sheds important new light on the ritual actions of plough symbolism in an age of religious hybridity and transformation.

Religious Information Poverty in Australian State Schools

This paper introduces the concept of religious information poverty in Australian state schools from an information science perspective. Information scientists have been theorising about the global information society for some time, along with its increased provision of vital information for the good of the world. Australian state schools see themselves as preparing children for effective participation in the information society, yet Australian children are currently suffering a religious illiteracy that undermines this goal. Some reasons and theories are offered to explain the existence of religious information poverty in state schools, and suggestions for professional stakeholders are offered for its alleviation.
