RESUMO
Resumo Com base nos relatos de caráter hagiográfico elaborados sobre frei Fabiano de Cristo e em testemunhos deixados por fiéis após a morte do religioso, o artigo analisa as representações em torno da morte do servo de Deus e estuda as conexões existentes entre o culto aos santos e a cura de doenças no Rio de Janeiro em meados do século XVIII. Nesse contexto era marcada a indistinção entre saberes médicos e crenças religiosas. Partindo desse pressuposto, o zeloso desempenho do religioso franciscano, durante décadas, da função de enfermeiro do Convento de Santo Antônio do Rio de Janeiro permitiu que alguns fiéis o identificassem como santo após a sua morte.
ABSTRACT
Abstract Based on accounts of a hagiographic nature on brother Fabian of Christ and witness reports by the faithful after his death, this article analyzes the representations surrounding the death of the servant of god and studies the connections between the veneration of saints and healing practices in Rio de Janeiro in the mid-eighteenth century. At this time, there was a notable lack of distinction between medical knowledge and religious belief. As such, the zealous acts of the Franciscan friar over a period of decades in his work as infermarian at the Convent of Saint Anthony of Rio de Janeiro led some of the faithful to identify him as a saint after his death.
