A mistagogia como palavra e gestos na obra de São Cirilo de Jerusalém: o ato de construir o imaginário religioso

Abstract

The author dared to present the theology of St. Cyril from the concepts of communication. Showed that St. Cyril of Jerusalem created a style and symbolic gestures create the content of the Word of God from the sacred space and simultaneously, enabled his listeners to dream of religious imagery as a map of reality to be followed. Thus, re-managed communication as mystagogy mean that, say, to lead the recipient to a “virtualization of the body” experience as a language rather than text, produces a lifestyle that remakes the second time and learning possible spaces, steeped in the mystery of God.
