dc.description.abstract | The ethinic Jiripankó natives, who live in the high Alagoano backwoods at the district of Pariconha form an ethinic group who live in a deep social interaction with the population around with them doing cultural exchanges. Their members, after a long anonymity and persecution period identify themselves and are identificated for their similarities as cultural diferent from the other residents from that geographic region. While as an ethnic group comes affirming themselves through their cultural interations. In which share knowledge, beliefs, habits, values, atitudes, moral codes and ethical necessary to it’s social organization. This group was formed from a diaspora process of the Pankararu people in the backwoods of Pernambuco around XIX century, in Alagoas comes developing an inherited religion from their ancestors remeaning according the imposed conditions over time in the territory where they live in, what gives them a singular identity. The goal of the search is to investigates the religion practices from the Jiripankó people as elements which define it’s identity and create a belong ethinic feeling. Theoretically we protect the analyze in three kinds of bibliographical sources, being the first one referenced to the study of Maurício Arruti (1996,2004 and 2006), Rosymeri Ribeiro (1992), Maximiliano Cunha (1999), Priscila da Matta (2005), Andreia Gilberti (2013) and Cláudia Mura (2013), about the pankararu’s trunk, the second analyze happened on the Fátima’s Brito Works (1992), Gilberto Ferreira (2009), Ivan Farias (2011), Anderson Silva ( 2013 to 2014), Cícero Pereira dos Santos (2015), Ana Cláudia Silva (2015), Adelson Peixoto and Lucas Gueiros (2016) about the vilagge formation, the recognition of the Jiripankó people and the payment of promises that are around it’s religion, the third analyze about the nets of relations and exchanges between the groups that came from the same trunk happened in the Works from Alexandre Herbetta (2006 and 2015), Juliana Barreto (2007,2008 and 2010) and Siloé Amorim (2010). The bibliographic research was the first step and needed to historicize about the process of creation of the vilagge and the ethinic recognition of those people. Parallel to this initiated the field research of qualitative explanatory and ethnographic character, with the achievement of fieldwork, starting with semistructured interviews with the main leaders and religious characters from the village besides accompanying some payment of promises rituals and religious parties in the community, where beyond interviews were produced ethinographics movies and photos. The field observations together with the bibliographic research analyses of the interviews develop a village where it’s inhabitants say their daily experience, the ritualistic expressions (promises, obligations, penances and interdictions) that characterize it’s religious unirvese and relates it with the feeling of ethinic belonging. Currently this group started around of a religion composed by traditional items in a deep harmony with new practices and this wheareas they bring them closer separate them of feeling that defines the Jiripankó, because it continues a branch of that trunk ritual, but is not dependent on it to exist. | eng |
