Abstract

"Revisiting Vieira in the 21st Century is a unique and necessary work, consisting of a fundamental set of reflections around ten nuclei, which allow us to visit the master in order to know him better in the light of modern times. And so we find, at each step, the demonstration of the geniality of the speaker and of the man of culture, as well as a constant appeal, which current events cannot forget, regarding the consecration of human dignity. The ten nuclei have a strong analytical and pedagogical sense, allowing us to know and understand a unique source in Portuguese culture: biography, historiography and reception - to integrate ourselves in the life path of the genial author; epistolography and interlocutors - to understand the importance of his intervention; theology and spirituality - to understand the fundamentals of what he tells us; visions of the future: prophetic work - to consider his capacity for anticipation; politics and society - to understand the importance of political commitment, in a time full of uncertainties and threats; sacred oratory and rhetoric: arts, uses and senses - to take care of the creation workshop of the unique artist; literature and art - to continue to scrutinize the enchanting capacity of the craftsman; polemic writings and the vision of the other - to deal with the courage and determination of the intellectual; science and nature - to realize the genuine attraction that he had for knowledge; and pedagogy and didactics - to put ourselves in the position of those who wish to learn the most from Vieira's lesson. ”

Abstract

"If we revisit Father António Vieira in the 21st century, we inevitably recognize in him the plurality of approaches [...]: first of all, he was (and is) a thinker of our culture and of the politics of his time, developing themes that demarcate what we call his actuality; and it is certainly not banal to trace a sense of actuality evident in those who lived, thought, preached and wrote over three centuries ago. That is so, but it is not just about that. The legacy of Father Antonio Vieira is also projected, until today, in our language, in the imaginary of his great cultists, in the arts and in his presence in the educational system. The texts we can read here attest well to what is said: the image of Vieira in our historiography, the epistolography and his cult, the prophetic work and the questions to which he invites, the audacity of theological thought, the path of life (a path that made this great figure almost a character of fiction, as the cinema confirmed), the political intervention to which he did not dodge, the unparalleled contribution he gave to sacred oratory".
