摘要

本章考察了拉丁裔/非裔基督徒实践的各种治疗传统。因为治愈从一开始就是基督教固有的一部分,所以拉丁美洲人/美洲人同样依靠基督教上帝和上帝代表的治愈力量来治疗他们的痛苦,治愈他们的疾病,恢复破碎的身体和关系的完整性也就不足为奇了。这一章追溯了拉丁裔/非裔经历如何塑造了这种治愈方式的特殊性。西班牙对土著居民的殖民和传福音,以及随之而来的暴行和混乱,需要一种包括治愈在内的信仰。一种医学和宗教传统的发展,既借鉴了伊比利亚天主教,也借鉴了本土医学和对人体的理解。Curanderismo和其他综合治疗方法创造性地有效地解决了许多拉丁美洲人和拉丁美洲人的健康需要。在上个世纪,基督教的魅力形式在拉丁美洲/美洲社区迅速发展,通常是因为他们专门从事神奇的治疗。宗教治疗一直是,并承诺将继续是拉丁美洲/基督教的基本要素。在这个领域有很多未来学习的机会。随着拉丁裔人口的不断增长和多样性,更好地了解来自不同民族的宗教治疗传统如何在美国相互作用甚至结合起来将是很重要的。

Latinos/as, Healing, and Christianity
This chapter examines the varieties of healing traditions practiced by Latino/a Christians. Because healing has been an intrinsic part of Christianity from its inception, it is little wonder that Latinos/as have likewise relied on the healing power of the Christian God and God’s representatives to treat their suffering, cure their diseases, and to restore wholeness to broken bodies and relationships. This chapter traces the particularities of how the Latino/a experience has shaped how this healing takes form. Spanish colonization and evangelization of indigenous populations, and the accompanying brutality and dislocation, necessitated a faith that included healing. A medicinal and religious tradition developed that drew as much on Iberian Catholicism as it did on indigenous medicines and understandings of the human body. Curanderismo and other combinatory healing practices have creatively and effectively addressed the health needs of many Latin Americans and Latinos/as. In the last century, charismatic forms of Christianity have grown rapidly in Latino/a communities, often because they specialize in miraculous healing. Religious healing has been and promises to remain an essential element of Latino/a Christianities. There are many opportunities for future study in this area. As the Latino/a population continues to grow and diversity, it will be important to understand better how religious healing traditions from different national origins come to interact and even combine in the United States.
