CAMPOS, Roberta Bivar C.. Telling “histories” (“causos”) and negotiation of meaning and truth among The Ave de Jesus, Juazeiro do Norte - CE. []. , 13, 1, pp.31-47. ISSN 0873-6561.

This article is based on the ethnographic case of the Ave de Jesus, a group of penitents in Northeastern Brazil. It focuses on the debate about the negotiation of meaning and truth between the researcher and his/her object. The classic anthropological subject of beliefs and rationality is approached but the discussion is widened to include the particular interlocutory space generated in the relationship between researcher and subject, as it contributes to the definition of the situational context for the construction of meaning.

: narratives; negotiation of meaning and truth; interlocution; dialogue.
