Descrição
This book presents the culture, games and legends of the Curupira, Jurupari and Poronominare, as told by the Baré ethnic communities, located near the towns of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro and São Gabriel da Cachoeira, by banks of Rio Negro in Amazonasstate. The project includes a region with a strong social disruption, which has undergone numerous pressures from the arrival of Europeans to the most recent invasion of miners, and calls attention to the dramatic rate of suicides among its young population. The devastating acculturation process implies the loss of traditional knowledge, oral tradition and artistic techniques of great value, leading indigenous people to feel devalued and to deny their indigenous identity.
