Resumo
O presente trabalho descreve e analisa o pensamento teológico-político de D. Adauto Aurélio de Miranda Henriques (1855-1935), bispo da Paraíba (1894-1935), visando o entendimento da forma como operou o pensamento sociológico-organicista de Louis Gabriel Ambroise, visconde de Bonald, o providencialismo histórico de Joseph de Maistre e o organicismo jurídico de Friedrich Julius Stahl, a fim de fundamentar o seu discurso e a sua ação política no movimento de oposição católica à ordem jurídica instaurada pela Primeira República. A sua ação política teve por objetivo a volta de direitos de interesse da Igreja suprimidos pela Constituição brasileira de 1891 e, foi marcada, em tese, pela obsessão pela lei. A proposta de reformar a Constituição visava o balizamento simbólico da religião na maior referência legislativa da nação. A axiologia católica deveria adentrar ao plano positivo da lei por meio da inscrição do nome de Deus na Carta Magna brasileira. O aspecto simbólico do nome de Deus na Constituição vinculava diretamente o nome de uma Instituição – a Igreja católica –, sobretudo pelo fato da maioria dos brasileiros professarem o catolicismo. A lei constitucional passa a ser a mola mestra do interesse da Igreja, com o propósito de fazer convergir uma hegemonia católica no interior da sociedade brasileira. A hegemonia católica foi historicamente exercida diretamente sobre os governantes, em razão da prevalência do princípio da soberania divina, todavia na modernidade a lei passa a se constituir no limite do poder político, sob o fundamento democrático da soberania popular. A Igreja se arma de pessoas preparadas intelectualmente para enfrentar o desafio de lutar pela lei e mudar a Constituição pela via democrática. A obra teológico-política de D. Adauto tem no seu núcleo uma intensa argumentação de combate à modernidade, a fim de fornecer elementos discursivos para a formação de um capital sócio-político-religioso, no intuito de oferecer subsídios para direcionar o católico e o catolicismo para a luta por direitos constitucionais na Carta Política brasileira.
This doctoral thesis describes and analyzes the theological-political thought of D. Adauto Aurelio de Miranda Henriques (1855-1935), bishop of Paraíba (1894-1935), aimed at understanding the way it operated the sociological and organismic thought of Louis Gabriel Ambroise, Viscount de Bonald, the historic providentialism of Joseph de Maistre and legal organicism of Friedrich Julius Stahl in order to substantiate his speech and his political action in the movement of Catholic opposition to the law established by the First Republic. Its political action aimed at the return of Church interest rights suppressed by the Brazilian Constitution of 1891, and was marked, in theory, by the obsession by law. The proposal to reform the constitution aimed at the symbolic marking of religion in the nation's largest legislative reference. The Catholic axiology should come into the positive side of the law through the application of God's name in the Brazilian Constitution. The symbolic aspect of God's name in the Constitution directly linked the name of an institution - the Catholic Church - especially because most Brazilians profess Catholicism. The constitutional law becomes the mainspring of the Church's interest in order to converge a Catholic hegemony within the Brazilian society. The Catholic hegemony has historically exerted directly on the rulers because of the prevalence of the principle of divine sovereignty, but in modern times the law shall be constituted on the edge of political power under the democratic basis of popular sovereignty. The Church arming people intellectually prepared to face the challenge of fighting for law and change the constitution through democratic means. The theological-political work of D. Adauto has at its core a strong argument to fight modernity in order to provide discursive elements for the formation of a socio-religious-political capital in order to offer subsidies to target the Catholic and Catholicism in the struggle for constitutional rights in the Charter Brazilian Policy.
