Rezando, Cantando e Dançando: na espetacularidade do estandarte da Irmandade de Carimbó de São Benedito em Santarém Novo-PA

Abstract

Based on Ethnocenology as the ethnoscience of studies of Organized Spectacular Human Practices and Behaviors - PCHEO - (Pradier, 1996), the research has its most sensitive look at the banner of the Brotherhood of Carimbó de São Benedito in Santarém Novo – PA. Thus, the process of construction of this work goes through the universe of popular religiosity, from sacredness to the profane, as both of them sometimes move without creating borders, (Brígida. 2016), articulate and connect in the manifestations, religiosity being the guiding thread in this cultural process, revealed in the Brotherhoods of Black Saints, in their beliefs, syncretisms and cultural absorptions in the poetic and imaginary environment of the Amazonian man. In the construction of the epistemological and conceptual structure of the research, I maintained a constant dialogue with Armindo Bião (2007) and Jean-Marie Pradier (1996), observing how spectacularity, based on ethnocenology as an ethnoscience, seeks to understand the phenomenon in the face of different areas of transdisciplinarity ; with Miguel Santa Brígida (2015), I experienced the methodological practice based on the concept of the artist-researcherparticipant, and immerse myself in the universe of religious syncretism and hybridizations and cultural identities with Massimo Cavenacci, Nestor Canclinni (2003), Stuart Wall (2003 ) and Michael Pollack (1992), still connecting me to the procession of social memories, individual and collective, inserted in the phenomenon; in Jean Chevalier (1997), Mircea Elíade (1991) and Gilbert Durand (1993), I identified that images and symbols are essays of a magical-religious symbolism that crosses the hierophany of a people that preserves their African-descendant matrices and identifications, in which Vicente Salles (1971) and Célia Maria Borges (2005) and Napoleão Figueredo (1966) clearly describe the cultural heritage of the Brotherhoods of the Rosary of Blacks; with Paes Loureiro (2005), I immersed myself in the enchantments of a magical reality, which emerge to the surface of rivers and daydreams, in the Amazonian poetic imagination; Anne Cauquelin (2005), Lúcia Santaella (1983) and Luigi Pareyson (1993) helped me to understand artistic making / thinking and its aesthetic senses that reveal, sometimes in hidden ways, the interpretation of art. In this way, the research seeks to collaborate with the understanding of an Amazonian culture that is invigorated, updated in its memories and we fall in love with each new look.
