Resumo: |
The New Age movement, primarily an urban phenomenon accepted by groups with an effervescent intellectual stance, made possible the reinvention of paganism. The cosmopolitan and globalized city of SãoPaulo is home to a variety of neo-pagan practices. The objective of this study is to verify how one group of contemporary druids, members of the BDO/Druidnetwork, experience their daily lives and spacialize a religiosity that is informed by the imaginary of the ancient Celts. An initial hypothesis was that practitioners initially became acquainted with Neo-druidism due to the massive spread, since the 1980s in Brazil, of literary and cinematic works about the Arthurian period. Fieldwork and analysis of interviews showed that this religious path is not directly related to such products but rather to an imminent need for a spirituality that comprehends human being/human nature and that breaks with the institutional character of traditional religions. Anxious for this reconnection, contemporary druids sacralize the landscape by adapting it to their immediate needs and expressing their concern with the natural world daily and discretely. They exchange experiences and lessons, in physical, mental and virtual spaces, confident in the emergence of a more just and harmonious society in the future |
