Resumo: The theme that permeates through the Psalms of Pilgrimage, a series of psalms that goes from Psalms 120 to 134, is one of oppression and resistance. What makes it unique is the varied ways in which these categories are presented. This series of psalms is impressive for saying what they have to communicate simply, directly, yet profoundly. From our criticism, we observe that oppression and resistance become present in varied forms. However, in no way does this mean that the reference to oppression and resistance is merely made in a general way. Rather they involve different forms and facets that interweave in such a way that they relate to one another in terms of gender, social class and race/ethnia. The objective of this thesis is to prove that with the movements of the body, its dialogues and its memories, it is possible to single out ways of social, economic, political and religious relations, marked by categories of gender, race/ethnia, social class, that are not linked to the interests of institutional systems. On the contrary, they spring up from the interaction between experiences of oppression and resistance, and present themselves as alternatives of life. Each psalm contributes characteristics to form a very particular context, which added to the particularities of the next, reveals a unique given broader context and in that way makes possible the unity of the series. Through the structures, the literary forms and the content, these psalms point toward the centrality of the body as the hermeneutic active factor which, with its movement, its manner of speaking and its memories, reveals oppression and looks for pleasure. The literary study and its content determine the structure of this series of psalms, divided in three main parts (Ps. 120-122; 123-129 and 130-1349), as well as the themes developed throughout the psalms, as well as the credibility of the historical proposal of oppression and resistance presented. It can be seen that the life of piety appears to be integrated to the social and political life, which constitutes one aspect since there is more than one religious experience interrelated. These experiences show that the visits to the temple of Jerusalem were not only to fulfill the religious customs of the times, but especially for the interests that pilgrims had with regards to the day to day aspects of their lives, their work and their needs. The pilgrims were able to make the connection between the festive and the daily living. In this way, this series of psalms becomes a reference point for the dialogue that reveals other voices and other ways to identify oppression and resistance. It is done not with the idea of trying to escape from it or to accommodate oneself to it, but rather to recognize the oppression and overcome it with creativity and hope. The study is developed in four chapters. In the first chapter, the emphasis placed on these texts is between theology and literature, specifically in being poetic texts. From there the actual state of the study about this series of psalms is raised, and the historical context to which these psalms are related is brought out. In the second chapter, a criticism of the poetic structures is made so that it is clear that the series of psalms is related as a unit. In the third and fourth chapters, as a consequence of the results of the second, the principal themes are emphasized so as to bring us, in an indicative way, to demonstrate the hypothesis.(AU)
