The confusing religious landscape in Brazil -- Flattening power structure (We have been being preached to) -- Conquer or hide -- Profane space does not exist -- Religious infrastructure -- Temple, street, home, and nature -- Interlude. Religion and music (Daniel's story) -- Beyond space (lessons from the pandemic) -- Conclusions. Demolishing the babel."This book delves into the complex relationship between religious imaginaries and the perception of space among followers of Candomblé and Pentecostal churches in Belo Horizonte, Brazil's third-largest urban agglomeration. It adopts a dual perspective, examining the broader political, economic, and social dimensions of these religious communities' urbanisation and spatial distribution and their members' individual beliefs and behaviours. Through this approach, the book aims to provide a nuanced and insider's view of these religious positions, challenging our preconceived notions of urban spaces and contributing to the larger discussion of decolonial urban theory and spatialised post-secular thought. This transdisciplinary book will appeal to a broad range of researchers, particularly those interested in urban and religious studies. Its strong spatial perspective makes it attractive to architects and urban designers. It will be of interest to those in human geography, urban planning, design, architecture, political science, religious studies and culture studies"--Provided by publisher.City churchesBrazilBelo HorizonteChurch architectureBrazilBelo HorizonteCity planningReligious aspectsCity planningBrazilBelo HorizonteBelo Horizonte (Brazil)Religious life and customsCity churchesChurch architectureCity planningReligious aspects.City planning278.1/51Medeiros de Freitas Daniel1382159Soares Lima Carolina Maria1382160Nawratek Krzysztof1970-1433941Miranda Pataro Bernardo1382161MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910735577503321Epistemic ambivalence3584995UNINA
