Abstract

This work discusses like the discourses are appropriate and selected in order to legitimize and behaviors, such as the problem of female Ordination in Catholic scope in the twentieth century and after the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), that became the starting point for debates among feminist theologians and the 'conservative' of the Catholic Church. Thus, the question of ordination passes, by both groups, for a Christian appropriation of the past, its origins in the corpus paulinum became a starting point for debate and arguments today. It was from these origins that the work the second moment, focused to address the context of this world Pauline century, where values like honor and shame were worked in the Pauline communities and reflect the corpus paulinum. The issue of ordination is the initial point of the thesis, because this research focuses as Paul was appropriated and used by both groups in contemporary writings as a post-Pauline, where the figure of Paul was used to legitimize and endorse behaviors and attitudes, and a process of institutionalization of the Church. In short, this work suggests some ideas for different concepts such as male and female, analyzed from a gender perspective. It emerges, of that analysis, another look at the social-sex role in Pauline communities of first century CE, which allows a comparison of this reading with academic discourses on the subject (AU)
