“…These four paradigms and postures presented below in the Table 1 will underpin my analysis. Digital Performativity Douyère (2015) builds his conception of religion around the "communication and transmission of information, dogmatic and ritualistic, suggesting the presence of the divine" (p. 3). The epistemological basis adopted here is one of performativity.…”

“…Acts performed virtually are free from the territorial and temporal barriers (Douyère 2015) that characterize sacrament and traditional liturgical gesture. There are no borders stopping the bereaved person living in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, from performing this gesture at a funeral ritual held in person in Montreal for his or her deceased loved one.…”

“…The same is true for material "signs" that the bereaved in Dubai can make for their deceased loved one whose remains are in Montreal. This sign can be a hug-a virtual hug-but also an image or a text following Douyère's (2015) analysis, and it too is unrestricted by time or space and endlessly repeatable. Moreover, the performativity of this digital modality of ritual is multiplied tenfold insofar as the "disintermediation" leading to the abolition of all forms of authority that Douyère applies to DICT is also true in relation to ritual.…”

This article proposes to study the changing relationship between religion and the digital continent as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. To achieve this objective, the paper is divided into three parts. First, it offers an overview of the connection between religion and the digital environment, outlining four possible paradigms of the open relationship between these two worlds. Second, the article discusses the research project undertaken during the COVID-19 pandemic on behalf of the Corporation of Thanatologists of Quebec, focusing on the relationship between delayed funerals and delayed grief. In particular, this article deals with one of the solutions proposed to thanatologists, i.e., the development of a culture of bimodal ritual, both in person and remote, and therefore partly digital. Using this solution as a pointer, religion’s shift toward digital technology in the COVID-19 period is analyzed in the third part of the article. To this end, the four paradigms drawn from the overview are set against the research focus areas resulting from the solution proposed to the Corporation of Thanatologists.

“…Robert Glenn Howard poursuivra sur ses conclusions en étudiant le cas très particulier de la réalité numérique d'une communauté chrétienne fondamentaliste en tant que « virtual ekklesia » formant ainsi le « corps virtuel du Christ » (Howard, 2011). D'autres chercheurs (Mayer, 2008 ;Jonveaux, 2013 ;Douyère, 2015) investissent la question, considérant désormais le numérique comme un facteur majeur de transformation du rapport des croyants et des communautés aux savoirs religieux (sa diffusion, son interprétation et son accessibilité...). En francophonie, l'ouvrage Le religieux sur Internet (Duteil-Ogata et al, 2015) en témoigne de ces efforts en regroupant certains de ces travaux.…”

For the most part, studies on the relationship between religion and digital can be grouped under the theme Digital Religion. Without being totally foreign to it, the phenomenon we are interested in here seems to be of a different order. Rather than ‘digitized religion’, we are confronted with what we might understand as a quest for digital meaning. Some authors who have described this technological religiosity argue that it serves to legitimize the belief in a new society. The study of what we have called ‘digitization’ would therefore be based on the sacralization of a set of techno-values, of which the internet would be both the tool of broadcast and the main symbolic object. If we recognize that religion has something to do with society’s idea of itself, we can ask ourselves whether the digital revolution, by generating a new type of society, does not contain a religious dimension.

“…Dans une recherche subséquente, Campbell (2017) a affirmé que les Digital Religion Studies sont devenues un champ d'étude à part entière, à l'intersection des Internet Studies and Media et des Religion, and Culture Studies, qui offre aux chercheurs des cadres utiles pour réfléchir aux façons dont les individus et les institutions religieuses négocient leurs vies religieuses « en ligne » et « hors-ligne » et leurs pratiques médiatiques. Si ce courant s'est particulièrement développé dans le monde anglo-saxon, les chercheurs francophones ont tardé à porter attention aux manifestations numériques du religieux (Douyère, 2015 ;Duteil-Ogata et al, 2015). Penser les différentes formes de religiosité des acteurs africains tant sur le continent que dans les diasporas à l'ère d'Internet implique de s'intéresser aussi bien à ces interconnexions qu'à la complexité des changements sociaux et culturels qui en découlent au sein de ce que Capone (1999) voyait déjà comme une « communauté en réseau » ou que Campbell (2015) nommera « religion en réseaux ».…”
