Palavras sagradas, rimas e experiências: uma tentativa de compreensão sobre cristianismo pentecostal, rap e Antropologia

Abstract

Based in research developed on the subject of rap gospel in the city of Belém, Sate of Pará, Brazil, I could obtain empirical data which gave me information to reflect upon general questions of anthropology. In that way, I organized the dissertation in the perspective of a compilation of essays, which deal with the question of as the use of the subjectivity is possible in the construction of the ethnographic text. This subjectivity, in the field work between researcher, intermediate, interlocutors e informers. For the exposition of the analysis in it, I used the analogy with the composition, production and recording of a CD. In fact, it is as if each essay contained here constitutes a band of a CD entitled sacred Words, rhymes and experiences: A thematic of the understanding on Pentecostal Christianism, rap and anthropology, by the MC and anthropologist Bruno “B.O.” Borda, with a bonus track, also. The Christian Rap provided reflections to me on religion, youth and racial relations, on one hand, and epistemology, methodology and art, on the other, making that I presented this work with a purpose much more of incitation to the questioning and the doubt. All this in a kind of philosophical style, keeping the rhyme and the poetry, to at least propitiate a mixing reading, in order to reach partners anthropologists and allied hip hoppers.
