Abstract

PINTO, Muriel; NOGUEIRA, Carmen Regina Dorneles  and  COLVERO, Ronaldo Bernardino. Cultural Markers, Sacred Spaces and Missionary Identiary Representations in Silver. Latinoamérica [online]. 2020, n.71, pp.63-91.  Epub Jan 22, 2021. ISSN 2448-6914.  https://doi.org/10.22201/cialc.24486914e.2020.71.57205.

The border cities of São Borja-Brasil and Santo Tomé-Argentina began their territorial formation from the implementation of the Jesuit-Guarani Reductions (17th century). This period took root in ways of life, knowledge, beliefs and architectural markers in the region. To this end, the study aimed to carry out an identity reflection in a historical region of Prata, questioning how social representations and missionary cultural markers end up reproducing regional identity narratives. As partial results, it is argued that the regional missionary identity, no matter how much it has suffered from stagnant alterities, still maintains traditional practices experienced, based on rituals, sacred and mythical beliefs, and through the discursive and symbolic affirmation of missionary musicality.

Keywords : Mission Identity: Sacred spaces; Social representations; Territorial markers; Brazil-Argentina border.
