Abstract

ABREU, Marilande Martins. Fieldwork and its perspectives: anthropological encounters between researcher and priest in Mina’s Drum (Tambor de Mina). Etnográfica [online]. 2021, vol.25, n.3, pp.611-631.  Epub Nov 25, 2021. ISSN 0873-6561.  https://doi.org/10.4000/etnografica.10704.

The present article proposes to reflect on the fieldwork and the relations between the religious and afro-maranhense fields from two texts about the Maranhão Mine Drum (Tambor de Mina do Maranhão). It is intended to understand how these two writings indicate a possibility of changes of positions, in so far as the anthropologist’s text can be interpreted from the religious discourse, and the Mina priest’s text from the anthropological position.

Keywords : mine drum; intellectual field; religious field; truth.
