HERÓIS EM CENA: A CONSTRUÇÃO PARADIGMÁTICA CONTRACULTUAL DA MESOCRISTOLOGIA JOANINA

Abstract

GUERRA, Danilo Dourado. Heroes on the scene: the paradigmatic countercultual construction of mesochristology Johannine. Thesis (PostGraduate Program in Religious Studies) - Pontifical Catholic University of Goias, 2018. This investigation has as object of research the hero incarnation homologesis (confession), in Jo 1,14. Using a diachronic-synchronic analytical methodological referential of pendular type, the objective is to carry out the exegetical-reconstitutive tracing of the Christological content implicit in Jo 1,14 and its interface with the socioreligious context experienced by the Johannine groups. In response to this demand, the hypothesis to be demonstrated is that the discourse of the Johannine hero's incarnation, structured within a prologue sequential poetic, echoes the Christological saga of the community and reveals the genetic-noematic configuration of the Johannine mesochristology. It is a protocristological model that is made heterotopic and theo-political construction in relation to the Roman apotheosis, and, therefore, establishes itself as Christolatric, Christocentric and paradigmatic construct in relation to the imperial cult and the theatercratic structures engendered in it. The main objective of the thesis is to explain that the original Johannine Christianity establishes itself as a Christological-cultual prototype, which kerygmatize and claims a devotional praxis centered on Jesus. In this sense, the mesochristological gens, implicit in the Johannine hero incarnational discourse, was implanted like a paradigmatic homologetic construct in relation to any divinizing and cultual praxis, theatrercratically forged under non-Christocentric hermeneutic devices throughout history.
