Abstract:

Religion has a spiritual message embedded, as its purpose is to establish a relationship between the seen and the unseen worlds. However, to allow people to understand its spiritual message, it uses symbolism in such a way that the physical person would try to comprehend the inner meanings of the spiritual message that lies therein. This study is not about ‘how' the Hajj rituals are to be performed, because the answer to that question is trivial and have been thoroughly studied throughout centuries. This study is an attempt to answer the question ‘why.' Why is the Hajj to be performed in a certain way? This study delves into what must be a deeper meaning. Its methodology is through the etymological usage of the terminologies textually and intertextually between Scriptures, including the Qur'an and the Bible. It attempts to explore the polysemous nature of the root words and to resurrect the inner meanings that can be ascertained from the root. This study introduces a new methodology for Scriptural hermeneutics, while comparing the methods used by Biblical and Qur'anic scholars. Once the methodology is established, it is applied to increase understanding of the inner meanings of the Hajj rituals portraying the journey of a dead soul from death, sacrifice of the ego, resurrection into life, and spreading the seeds and Water of Life to other dead souls trying to fight their egos and, likewise, resurrect them into life.

Abstract:

This thesis spotlights a social group pilgrimage site staff heretofore neglected in anthropological research. The main subjects are the Resident Group ('ressies') working at the lona Community's guest centres. Based on an accumulative 16-month fieldwork, the ethnographic evidence challenges the assumptions that pilgrims' 'sacred' encounters are unmediated, that site staff passively acquiesce with the dominant ideology, and that the production of pilgrimage experience is unproblematic. Building on existing paradigms of pilgrimage as 'contested', 'movement'-oriented, and a form of'practice', the Turners' classic view of pilgrimage as rite de passage is deployed to show that 'place' and 'landscape' are key themes in people's understanding of and engagement with this ancient pilgrimage isle today. Part I lays the theoretical and methodological groundwork and introduces the research locale, locating it within recent Celtic revivalisms. It also addresses how the lona Community (ressies' employers) situate their religio-political vision within the wider sociological and theological contexts of contemporary British Christianity. Part II recounts the historical and contemporary formulations of lona pilgrimage and tourism. A Heideggerian perspective of 'dwelling' illuminates how devotees appropriate lona's 'sacred' geography as a resource for personal revelation and self- transformation. Ethnographic accounts of visitors' 'Iona experience' are provided as a comparative foil to the site staff who enable this distinctive pilgrimage encounter. Part III explores ressies' motivations, discourses, and experiences at lona as a locus of 'holistic' work (and worship). It elucidates their complex relationship with the lona Community and how ressies contest their idealised corporate identity. Van Gennep's concept of 'liminality' and Ardener's 'paradox of remote places' emerge as central themes in analysing ressies' 'betwixt and between' 'selves'. An investigation of the social and ideological structures of the Resident Group setup as a 'total institution' further reveals the impact of the 'leaving lona' rhetoric and reality upon ressies' post-Iona lives.

Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Technology: Tourism and Hospitality Management in the Faculty of Business at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology 2013
This thesis is concerned with the service delivery received by pilgrims based in South Africa, especially with regards to services and amenities that were paid for and promised in the contract, but which may not have materialized. The focus on Hajj travelling can be viewed as an aspect of religious tourism (so to speak). Currently there is a dearth of research on this particular spiritual journey in South Africa. For this reason, this research aims to elucidate the service delivery components, processes and challenges. The researcher finds it necessary to research this topic because pilgrimage constitutes part of religious tourism and the policies governing the Hajj industry, as well as the operational aspects of the Hajj industry are unclear. Problems such as poor service standards, lack of business ethics and malpractice exist in the Hajj industry. The main challenges in the South African Hajj industry are: a) Lack of mainstream travel and tourism practices in the South African Hajj industry. b) Absence of a service and quality driven industry. c) Difficulty in acquisition of travel documentation for pilgrims. d) Lack of business ethics and malpractice by service providers. e) Limitations on travel through the newly introduced quota system by the Hajj Ministry of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). In 1994 the South African Government formed the South African Hajj and Umrah Council, (SAHUC) and is a nationally based constituted organisation. This organisation is officially recognised by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as the official structure responsible and accountable for facilitating the affairs of the South African pilgrims within South Africa and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (SAHUC, 2005). The researcher intends on addressing the above-mentioned challenges through developing a service delivery framework that will help alleviate the problems in the industry between South African Hajj role players. The framework is aimed at identifying current gaps between supply and demand in the Hajj industry as well as providing recommendations for the future.

Abstract:

This research investigates the phenomenon of pilgrimage, seeking to better understand the dimensions of space and power of place as it pertains to the individual pilgrim's relationship to a foreign environment while emphasizing the humanistic, experiential and physical aspects embedded within the process of pilgrimage. An examination of the concept of pilgrimage through the experience of an architect, pilgrimage as a vehicle for finding self, exploration of the phenomenology of place, and investigation of the fundamentals or anthropology of experience, will also be included.For an architect this unique and relatively untouched area of research has great importance. Architects are constantly searching for an understanding of the relationship between environments and people. The profession, as a whole, is trained to be especially sensitive to aesthetic and cultural aspects of the built environment. Furthermore, the study of pilgrimage, to date, lacks scholarly research conducted by architects, whose unique perception of three-dimensional space and knowledge of the language necessary to build unique places could potentially add insight into many aspects of the pilgrimage phenomenon. These aspects emphasize the role environment plays in pilgrimage and the spatial behavior of pilgrim's relationship to environment.

Abstract:

The present dissertation has as object of study the pilgrimage to the Shrine of the Divina Pastora, which happens in the city with name similar to the Saint, located in the state of Sergipe. Had as goal analyze, through ethnographic study, the ritualistic and symbolic dimensions of this religious event, observing it as a ritual process, highlighting certain aspects of the system of representations, beliefs, values and ideas expressed not only through words but mainly through ritual actions performed by pilgrims. During the fieldwork, the achievement of direct observation and interviews allowed to reach an insertion densest at the practices and representations experienced by pilgrims. Thus, was possible to understand the motivations that prompted the devotees to leave in walk to meet their patron saint and the meanings attributed to their devotional act. For analysis of the rituals was used as reference the studies of Victor Turner.

Abstract:

As a large-scale international cultural phenomenon, the Jerusalem pilgrimage must be approached comparatively. This project compares the pilgrimage accounts of two Germans and two Englishmen who travelled to Jerusalem in the second half of the long fifteenth century. The texts are those of William Wey, (written c.1470), Bernhard von Breydenbach (printed 1486), Arnold von Harff (written 1499) and the 'Pylgrymage of Sir Richard Guylforde', composed by his anonymous chaplain (printed 1511). Each chapter focuses on a pilgrim, and one of four thematic topics: genre, the religious other, curiosity and print. This project treats these works as literary texts which can be approached from the perspective of cultural history, rather than as historical sources. The project, therefore, is more a consideration of how the pilgrimage is represented than it is about the events of each pilgrimage, and so it looks at the pilgrimages created in writing. Pilgrimage writings tend to focus on Jerusalem's spiritual significance, rather than its worldly position. In this sense, textual representations of travel to Jerusalem represent something of a disconnect with travel to other physical destinations, and the conceptual space of pilgrimage will be of key significance to this thesis. This has implications for practice as well as writing, and therefore the thesis will address how the writers consider their journeys, as well as the idea of virtual pilgrimage. The thesis engages with questions of identity, and how it is presented, as well as the authors' relationship with their audiences. This necessitates analysing collective identity, as well as the different audiences for printed and manuscript texts. The most important research question, bringing together these issues, considers whether the authors' different geographical origins affect their self-presentation and understanding of pilgrimage. This leads to my central contention: that pilgrimage must be portrayed as a single, unified experience.

Abstract:

The global increase in the number of mass gatherings and crowded events has brought with it new emergencies and unintended consequences for public administrators and first responders. Crowd managers attempt to overcome these challenges by enhancing operations, alleviating financial losses, keeping event organizers safe from liability and, most importantly, keeping the attendees safe. Effective communication among and between officials and guests has been identified as a key element in this process. However, there is a lack of risk communication studies, especially about heterogeneous crowds that congregate at religious events. With this gap in mind, this research aims to investigate the use of major communication channels available and/or preferred by Muslim pilgrims in Makkah, Saudi Arabia during Hajj to gauge their effectiveness in communicating risk information. This annual religious pilgrimage was chosen because it attracts over 2 million pilgrims from more than 140 countries, most of whom speak different languages and belong to different cultures but perform the same rituals at the same time. This dissertation seeks to answer three broad research questions: “what are the most popular communication channels used by pilgrims,” “what are the weaknesses of the current communication strategies,” and “what can be done to improve risk communication among pilgrims, and between pilgrims and authorities to enhance crowd control and crowd management strategies.” The protective action decision model (PADM) is used as the theoretical framework to understand the influence of six factors (environmental cues, social cues, information sources, channel access and preferences, warning messages, and receiver characteristics) on risk communication. In collaboration with the Transportation and Crowd Management Center of Research Excellence (TCMCORE) of Saudi Arabia, a convenience sampling strategy was employed to interview 348 pilgrims in the Prophet’s Mosque area, during the Hajj of 2013. The surveys were conducted in Arabic and English and included pilgrims from different backgrounds and countries. Data analysis included an evaluation of the correlation between the use of risk communication channels and receiver characteristics, message content, and information sources. Findings highlight low percentages in the overall use of communication channels. It also demonstrated an over-dependence on channels that foster the passive top-down communication strategy (such as TV stations, messages at mosques, billboard, text messages, and pamphlets), while marginalizing channels that foster the horizontal and bottom-up strategies (such as bilingual staff outreach and social media). The findings also show the differences in risk communication channels used by pilgrims from different socio-demographic groups. The study concludes that adopting bottom-up and horizontal strategies is key to effective risk communication. Additionally, crowd managers must recognize the importance of social media and use this medium more proactively. They can also work towards increasing the overall effectiveness of risk communication channels by addressing the impact of information sources, channel access, and receiver characteristics to better suit the needs of pilgrims. Finally, the study states the limitations and future research directions.

Abstract:

The thesis "Tuba: an African eschatology in Islam" adopts afrocentric hypotheses for the study of Islam. First, the thesis demonstrates how certain phenomena specific to Islam in Africa, those usually qualified as products of religious syncretism, are on the contrary indicative of the ongoing process of synthesis and enrichment within Islam, and, secondly, that African spiritual tradition continues today as in the past to participate along with others in this constructive process. In order to demonstrate this hypothesis the spiritual significance of the modern Islamic holy city of Touba in Senegal will be analyzed.
Touba is named for the Tree of Paradise (Tuba) of Islamic tradition and the holy city has been constructed around the singular arboreal image. The spiritual meaning imparted by Touba, a deliberate creation, is expressed in the topography of the holy city, in its geographic configuration. The thesis adapts the methodologies of spatial analysis, and specifically the semiotic reading of landscape, to the study of a religious phenomenon, i.e., the creation of a holy city.
in order to explain the significance of this holy city for Islamic eschatology, the meanings which three distinct religious traditions (Islam, West Africa, Ancient Egypt) have attached to the image of the cosmic tree are inventoried. The tree as archetype here serves to establish the continuity of African religious thought from pharaonic Egypt to modern Muslim Senegal.

Abstract:

Esta dissertação trata da História do Padre Cícero, que viveu entre 1844 e 1934 no Ceará. Juazeiro foi o lugarejo para onde foi como Padre, permanecendo aí até a sua morte. Apesar de ter construído a Igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora das Dores nunca foi seu vigário. Sua presença teria sido a de um pastor dedicado ao rebanho, justamente naquilo que a Igreja lhe pedia, não fosse o Milagre da hóstia ensangüentada na boca da beata Maria de Araújo. Este fato haveria de transtornar a vida de Padre Cícero e em conseqüência disso transformou Juazeiro na Cidade Santa, que atrai multidões de Romeiros vindos de toda parte. Padre Cícero viu-se então envolvido em muitos conflitos. Sempre alvo de muitas incompreensões, foi tido como anátema pela Igreja. Na prática, foi excomungado, apesar de não ter tomado conhecimento do documento de excomunhão chegado para ele. Defendido e condenado ao mesmo tempo por muitos, foram, no entanto, os romeiros que sustentaram essa história de Padre Cícero e do Juazeiro com muita fidelidade e resistência pacífica. O desejo de reabilitação histórica, pastoral e eclesial cresceu dentro da própria Igreja Católica. De forma oficial, a pedido do Vaticano e coordenado pelo seu Bispo diocesano, Dom Fernando Panico, abre-se o processo de reabilitação histórica de Padre Cícero. Buscar as razões que proporcionaram a mudança do anátema ao acolhimento pastoral foi o grande objetivo de nossa pesquisa
This dissertation treats of Father Cícero's History, who lived between 1844 and 1934, in Ceará. Juazeiro was the village where he was a Priest, staying there until his your death. He built the church of Our Lady of the Pains, without, however, being the pastor. His presence would have been the one of a shepherd dedicated to the flock, exactly what the Church asked him, don't root the "Miracle" of the Host bloody in the bigot's mouth of the pious Maria de Araújo. This fact would transform Father Ciceros life and subsequently make Juazeiro, into the Holly City, that attracts crowds of Pilgrims, who came from everywhere. Father Cícero saw himself, then, involved in many conflicts. Always missunderstood he was seen as a curse by the Church. In practice, he was "excommunicated ", however, he was not aware of any formal excommunication. Simultaneously protected and condemned by many, it was the pilgrims however, who sustained the favoravle reputation of Father Cícero and Juazeiro, by fidelity and peaceful resistance. The desire of historical rehabilitation, both pastoral and ecclesiastical grew inside the Catholic Church. In an official way, the Vaticans request, coordinated by the diocesan Bishop, Dom Fernando Panico, started the process of historical rehabilitation of Father Cícero. Looking for the reasons that reasons that motivated the change of the "curse into the pastoral reception, was the major objective of our research

Resumo: Aparecida/SP é uma cidade-santuário conhecida por sediar a Basílica de Nossa Senhora Aparecida, e por ser um centro comercial. A Imagem Aparecida, em todos os casos, é o seu grande referencial. Etnograficamente ela não pode ser definida apenas pela religião, pela economia ou pela política porque as três categorias lhes são insuficientes. Aparecida é um nome polivalente e essa dissertação tem por objetivo explorar as potências antropológicas de seus espaços, suas imagens e seus sentidos
Abstract: Located in the state of São Paulo ¿ Brazil, the city of Aparecida is famous not only for its catholic Basilic of Our Lady Aparecida, but also for its great commercial importance. In any case, the main reference to the city remains the "Aparecida Image" ¿ a famous clay sculpture found in a river. On an ethnographic point of view, it is insufficient to define it based only on Religion, Economics or Politics. Aparecida has a multivalent name, and therefore this dissertation has the objective to explore all the anthropological potencies of this spaces, images and meanings

Abstract:

Um dos maiores santos de devoção popular no Brasil – principalmente no Nordeste -, Padre Cícero Romão Batista foi e continua sendo um personagem capaz de suscitar muitas polêmicas dentro da Igreja Católica e no meio acadêmico brasileiro. É objeto de diversas pesquisas e sua vida suscita as mais diferentes interpretações. Inserindo-nos dentro do universo de estudos e debates acadêmicos que tem Pe. Cícero e sua devoção como temática, neste trabalho procuramos analisar sua vida e trajetória social, assim como o processo através do qual ele se converteu num importante líder religioso e, subsequentemente, num santo de devoção popular. O trabalho se inicia com uma análise de sua trajetória e vida social desde sua infância, passando por sua formação sacerdotal, sua ordenação, sua decisão de tornar-se capelão de Juazeiro do Norte e seus primeiros dezoito anos de capelania naquele povoado. Num segundo momento abordamos como o evento conhecido como o “milagre de 1889” influenciou e teve conseqüências para sua vida e a do Juazeiro, transformando esse lugar num importante centro de peregrinação no Nordeste e Pe. Cícero num grande líder religioso no Brasil das primeiras décadas do século XX.Interessa-nos também compreender como se desenvolveu a relação de Padre Cícero com seus seguidores – usualmente conhecidos como romeiros ou afilhados – pelos quais passou a ser tratado como o Padrinho Cícero. Por fim analisamos como se desenvolveu após sua morte o culto a sua santidade, notadamente em torno do Juazeiro sagrado e de suas romarias.

This thesis analyzes his life and his social trajectory, as well as the process through he turned into an important religious leader and, subsequently, into a popular devotion saint. The introduce of this work is an analysis of his life and his social trajectory from a child to his priestly standing, his ordination, his decision to become Juazeiro do Norte´s priest and his first eighteen years of chaplainship there. Afterwards, it is studied how the well known happening “miracle of 1889” affected and brought consequences to his and Juazeiro´s life, changing this place into an important pilgrimage center in the northeast side of the country and Pe. Cícero into a religious leader in Brazil in the first decades of century XX.It´s interesting to comprehend how the relationship between Padre Cícero and his followers has grown – usually known as pilgrims or godsons – who call him Padrinho Cícero. In conclusion, the development of the worship to his sanctity after his death is examined, around sacred Juazeiro and its pilgrimages.

Abstract:

This paper is an exploration of the theme of pilgrimage in the following three works: Gan&dotbelow;d&dotbelow;vyuha, Journey to the West and The Life of Marpa the Translator.
Through an examination of the narrative structure of the texts, I derive a pattern which is consistent throughout these three Mahayana works. This pattern is then compared to the Mahayana doctrine of Two Truths, which is shown to be expressed by the literary pilgrimage. Finally, by exploring the ways in which these texts 'work' on the reader---both by seeing the protagonist go through the stages of Buddhist practice and through the reader's interaction with the text---I show how reading these stories can act as a transformative Buddhist practice.

Abstract:

This thesis addresses Constantine's developments of the Roman province of Palaestina. It analyzes two important Christian bishops, Eusebius of Caesarea and Cyril of Jerusalem, and one nameless Christian traveler, the Bordeaux pilgrim, to illuminate how fourth-century Christians understood these developments. This study examines the surviving writings of these Christian authors: the Bordeaux Itinerary, Cyril's Catechetical Lectures, and Eusebius's Ecclesiastical History, Onomasticon, Preparation of the Gospel, Proof of the Gospel, and the Life of Constantine, and the archaeological remains of several Constantinian basilicas to interpret their views of the imperial attentions that were being poured into the land. Together these accounts provide views of fourth-century Palaestina and Jerusalem that when combined more fully illuminate how Christians understood Constantine's Holy Land policy. This study focuses on Constantine's developments of the city of Jerusalem, primarily the so-called Triad of Churches (The church of the Nativity, the Eleona, and the Holy Sepulchre) built in and around the city. It likewise considers the countryside of Palaestina outside of Jerusalem. While some Christians were resistant to the developments of Jerusalem, our sources reveal how many Christians supported, or at least desired to experience, the newly developing Christian Holy Land. This thesis argues that most of the discrepancies over the city of Jerusalem between our sources, especially Eusebius and Cyril, developed from long-standing political tensions between the cities of Caesarea and Jerusalem. The Bordeaux pilgrim, on the other hand, traveled across the Roman Empire to see and experience the developing sites throughout the land with no interest in local political debates. With this added perspective we can see how Christians, separated from the positions of church fathers, experienced the developing Holy Land.

Resumo: O objetivo dessa dissertação de mestrado foi analisar a metáfora da caminhada, a partir da leitura comparativa entre duas obras: Auto da Alma, de Gil Vicente, e Morte e Vida Severina - Auto de Natal Pernambucano, de João Cabral de Melo Neto. Procurei investigar como essas produções desenvolvem, a partir do trabalho com poesia e com o auto, a caminhada como imagem central de construção do texto: em ambos, são personagens em deslocamento espacial e temporal que protagonizam os poemas. Partindo da revisitação a textos da tradição cristã e a textos literários que trabalham com a tópica da peregrinatio, levantei alguns temas e imagens comuns relativos à peregrinação, que guiaram minha leitura comparativa. Além da própria metáfora de vida como caminho e/ou peregrinação, há a questão da ajuda divina para essa realização, bem como os perigos de desvio e do cansaço; as paradas para descanso (e os diferentes valores atribuídos ao parar); a questão do nome/singularidade (ou possibilidade de representação de outros personagens) do peregrino central; as vestimentas que o viajante porta, ou das quais se desfaz ao longo da caminhada; a questão do alimento recebido (ou da falta dele) ao caminhar; assim como o que, intrinsecamente, constitui esse tipo de viagem: a partida e a chegada, e as dificuldades ao longo do caminho. As diferenças de contexto da produção de cada auto foram retomadas e discutidas, a fim de entender as diferenças de significação no aproveitamento que João Cabral faz do gênero através do qual Gil Vicente tanto escreveu. Um dos objetivos finais da pesquisa foi procurar entender por que o poeta brasileiro usa uma matéria cristã-católica em um texto de explícita crítica social. Encerrei, então, discutindo as implicações da construção de um auto natalino dentro do auto: como a afirmação de outra vida severina vem ao final do poema para mostrar o comprometimento coletivo com a caminhada
Abstract: The purpose of this reserach was to analyze the metaphor of the walk, by a comparative reading of two works: ?Auto da Alma?, by Gil Vicente, and ?Morte e Vida Severina - Auto de Natal Pernambucano?, by João Cabral de Melo Neto. It sought to investigate how these productions developed the walk as the central image of the text construction, by working with poetry and auto: both texts have characters in spatial and temporal displacement which star in the poems. Starting from revisiting the texts of the Christian tradition and literary texts that work with peregrinatio, it was raised some common themes and images on the pilgrimage, which guided my comparative reading. Beyond the metaphor of life as way, as pilgrimage, there is the matter of divine aid to fulfillment as well as the dangers of diversion and fatigue; the rest stops (and the different values assigned to the stop); the question of the pilgrim's name/singularity (or the possibility to represent others; the traveler's dressing (or disposes of them along the way); the question of food received (or lack of it) when walking; as well as what is inherently in a journey: departure and arrival, and difficulties along the way. The differences in the context of production of each auto were discussed in order to understand the significance of the use of this genre in João Cabral's poem - in which Gil Vicente wrote so much. One of the ultimate goals of the research was to try to understand why the Brazilian poet uses a Catholic-Christian's subject in a text with explicit social criticism. Then, we discuss the implications of building a Christmas auto within the auto: the affirmation of another severina's life comes at the end of the poem to show the collective commitment to walk

Abstract:

Depuis le début des années quatre-vingt, la petite localité de Kibeho - un hameau particulièrement difficile d’accès situé aux confins d’une région rurale du sud-ouest du Rwanda, à environ deux cents kilomètres de Kigali - s’est muée en une destination de pèlerinage prisée par de nombreux Catholiques rwandais et, désormais, étrangers. L’origine de ce changement de nature du lieu se confond avec les apparitions de la Vierge (mais aussi du Christ et d’autres personnages du « panthéon » catholique) dont ont été favorisées plusieurs jeunes filles scolarisées au collège catholique local au début des années quatre-vingt, puis un certain nombre d’adolescents des environs. De spontanés et irréguliers qu’ils étaient dans les premières années du phénomène, encore liés aux performances publiques des voyants qui bénéficiaient des apparitions à heures fixes sur un podium surélevé, les déplacements d’individus se sont graduellement organisés. Aujourd’hui, à Kibeho, les apparitions publiques ont pris fin. Les pèlerins, qu’ils appartiennent à l’un ou l’autre mouvement d’Action catholique ou à un groupe de prière et de pèlerinage né des apparitions, se regroupent dans différents centres urbains du pays pour rejoindre le sanctuaire de Notre-Dame des Douleurs, érigé suite à la reconnaissance des apparitions par l’Eglise catholique en 2001 et en perpétuelle expansion depuis lors.

En 2001, la déclaration de reconnaissance mentionne, parmi les signes de crédibilité des apparitions, « la journée du 15 août 1982 qui fut marquée notamment, contre toute attente, par des visions effroyables, qui dans la suite se sont avérées prophétiques au vu des drames humains vécus au Rwanda et dans l’ensemble des pays de notre région des Grands Lacs ». Cette lecture officielle qui confère un horizon de sens aux événements, instituant la prophétie en des termes choisis permettant d’y entrevoir le génocide comme l’hécatombe du choléra dans les camps de réfugiés du Congo, est diversement négociée par les acteurs locaux, même si la conviction de la réalisation d’une prophétie est quasi-unanime. Du point de vue des pèlerins, les apparitions demeurent relativement problématiques. Elles exigent de chacun qu’il négocie sa position en fonction d’une représentation de l’orthodoxie constamment réévaluée dans les limites de ce qui est expérimenté et affirmé comme une identité catholique. Cette difficulté est notamment due à la multiplicité des individus qui ont revendiqué ou revendiquent encore des visions ou apparitions, alors que seules trois jeunes filles ont été reconnues par l’Eglise catholique en 2001.

Après avoir soigneusement défini le cadre socio-historique des apparitions rwandaises, en abordant la question depuis le point de vue de voyants non reconnus - dont l’une expatriée en Belgique - et de ceux qui leur sont proches, la thèse propose une analyse des discours par lesquels ceux-ci se définissent et négocient la légitimité de leur pratique religieuse. Une attention particulière a été portée aux outils stéréotypés de la critique (sexualité, politique, vénalité…), mobilisés dans le cadre des tensions et conflits qui opposent différents acteurs individuels et collectifs. Par ailleurs, les mécanismes qui président aux rhétoriques de la construction de soi ont été mis en lumière, notamment par le biais des récits de guerre qui fondent une identité de survivant liée à la conviction d’une intervention mariale. Ce processus se confond souvent avec ceux qui président à la construction du pouvoir de la Vierge, et donc des voyants. Finalement, au travers de l’analyse des représentations touchant notamment à la prophétie du génocide et de la guerre civile, les nouveaux rapports au national se font jour, les violences des années nonante étant intégrées dans un schéma biblique qui opère un basculement significatif :parce que le Rwanda serait touché de plein fouet par la Mal, il a été choisi par Dieu et par la Vierge comme noyau de la Nouvelle Evangélisation. À travers l’analyse du rapport au divin, à l’autorité, aux représentations de la modernité que les mots des acteurs reflètent, c’est le catholicisme vécu qui s’éclaire à l’ombre du sanctuaire et de son appareil médiatique foisonnant, ce catholicisme empirique dont la richesse se renouvelle à chaque « enculturation » comme au passage des générations successives et dont il importe, pour l’anthropologie comme pour l’histoire du christianisme, d’approcher l’infinie variété.

Abstract:

This study examines the unique pre-and post hajj traditions of the Cape Muslims in the 19th and 20th centuries. It explores the origin and historical development of these traditions and describes the changes in the mode of transport used to travel to Arabia for the performance of hajj and in the financial aspect of hajj since the 19th century. The study identifies the difficulties that hajjis experienced in the 19th and 20th centuries and explains the special status accorded to hajjis at the Cape, including its use as a status symbol. Much attention is given to the management of the hajj enterprise, including the role of hajj agents and operators. The study analyses the difference between the earlier and current system of managing the hajj, and provides an overview of the regulating body appointed by the South African government to oversee the hajj industry. Finally, it investigates the problems that the pilgrims have been experiencing over the many years.

Abstract:

Under the new Vision 2030 national transformation plan, the kingdom of Saudi Arabia seeks to increase number of annual pilgrims from eight million to thirty million. If oil has certain limits, then pilgrimage is framed as lasting “forever.” But this exuberant claim of “forever” belies a more subtle transformation unfolding at the level of knowledge, technology, and hospitality as Mecca and its crowds are made and re-made into a resource for a national economy. This dissertation examines the Saudi state’s efforts to manage, and ultimately intensify and optimize Mecca’s pilgrimage through new sciences and technologies of crowd management, logistics, and secular hospitality. I demonstrate how these new forms of knowledge production operate in tension with older and decidedly more Islamic ways of knowing, managing, and belonging in the holy city. Instead of approaching religious knowledge and secular knowledge as discrete spheres, my research explores their entanglements and aporias across a range of techno-political practices: navigation, hospitality, urban planning, systems thinking, crowd management, and optimization. Ultimately, I explore how in this moment of ritual intensity, the cosmopolitan logics of the holy city come to be blunted.
