CUNHA, Ana Stela de Almeida e ARAUJO, Paulo Jeferson Pilar de. Resizing Congo: Iberian frontiers of devotion. Anál. Social [online]. 2011, n.199, pp.329-346. ISSN 0003-2573.
We present an ethnographic comparison of two rural communities that are devotees of Saint Anthony - one in Brazil and the other in Cuba - both referring to themselves as congas.Issues examined include the borders of the Congo as influenced by the Iberian Diaspora, and the extension of the conga identity to Latin America in its geographic, political, religious, and social dimensions.We focus especially on the evolution of tradition evidenced in the religious music employed in these communities.
Palavras-chave : identity; Afro-Brazilian and Cuban religiosity; religious songs.
