Description
Summary:Crucial moments in collective history invest the sphere of the religious and the spiritual, becoming catalysts of imaginary productions and, at the same time, of new or readapted practices. The investigation presented here starts from a specific circuit of production of meaning around Covid-19, that of heterodox spiritualities, which flourish beyond the institutional forms of the religious.
