Resumo: |
This work consists of research on the cultural-religious meeting held between Shamanism and Catholicism, focusing on Brazil, between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, involving more directly European missionaries, especially the Jesuits, and Tupinambás shamans, known as pajés. This meeting resulted in a rivalry that, for large similarities in the relations of alterity, was inserted in a broader field, between different indigenous groups in South America, as the Guarani, and other Europeans of different nationalities, religious orders and lay people such as travelers and chroniclers, reaching up to the following centuries. By reading the European written sources, we can find descriptive elements of the Tupi-Guarani shamanism and also of the point of view of European alterity, through many commonalities among the various accounts. From the European point of view, we identify the condemnation of pajés and their association with witchcraft, that although discrediting their practices, they have served to them for their catechetical actions. About tupinambá shamanism, reports realize various practices such as medicinal cures, rituals, speeches and gestural actions, and spiritual intermediary through sacred symbols, such as the maraca, so it is possible to draw a profile of this shamanism. For the methodology of reading these sources, we start from the assumption that it is possible to withdraw relevant information, if not the voice of the Indians, at least the European alterity and processes and facts of meeting and dispute. This is not only to deepen the history of catechesis and of shamanism, but also the elements that constituted the cultural exchange and its consequences |
