Description
Summary:This article seeks to address the expansion of the Church in Colonial Brazil, his effort to set up territories and spatial diffusion from the use of processions, and how these manifestations, from its consequences, became the impetus for the construction of a popular religious and culturally typical Brazilian. Another point to be considered is the close relationship between the church and the Portuguese Monarchy during the colonization of Brazil and the "double ordering" of these religious manifestations. As an example of this double sorting using the Corpus Christi procession, first procession on earth "discovery" that served both the spiritual and the temporal. Jumping to a period where the notion of religious and secular are present "distinctly" and, assuming these devotional practices still persist, leads us to think about its implications on society as a form of sacralization, use and appropriation of space.
