Temporalidades liminares e liminoides. Música e semiotical blues nos bailes da saudade de Belém

Abstract

This article summarizes the results of an ethnography carried out at the “bailes da saudade” in Belém, Pará. It seeks to reflect on the musical sensitivity and the devices and devices for the production of temporality in the urban culture of that city. We relate ethnography and phenomenology in an attempt to understand cultural phenomena related to this sensitivity, identifying its nostalgic components through an analytical category: the semiotical blues. In the perspective of this perspective, an attempt is made to understand the relationship between music, temporality and emotion using Heidegger's (2012) reflections on daily temporality, Derrida (1972; 1994) on the question of the “metaphysics of presence” Schutz (1967; 2012 ), on the intersubjective processes that make up culture.
