Doctrinal pedagogical games: a new form of spiritist dissemination


Adail do Couto Diniz was born in Guaratinguetá (SP) and lives in Franca (SP), with a degree in Pedagogy from UNIFRAN and in History from UNESP, is our interviewee today. In the interview, which is one of the highlights of this edition, he tells us about the doctrinal and interactive pedagogical games that he has been producing and editing for several years, with the aim of facilitating and expanding the dissemination of Spiritism among children.


During the years of 1862 to 1863, Allan Kardec devoted significant attention to the so-called "possessions of Morzine", publishing in the Spiritist Magazine several articles about this true "obsessive epidemic". Examining the subject, the spiritist scholar Leonardo Marmo Moreira shows us in the Special of this edition how the occurrences of Morzine were important for a better understanding of the phenomenon of obsession and also of possession.
