Resumo: This work aims to give visibility to Jongo, an expression of black immaterial culture, by means of an ethnographic research carried out in Bananal-SP, a city located in the Paraíba do Sul River Historical Valley,nowadays comprised of around 11 thousand inhabitants. The synchronic description of the daily life of this small city, built from the ethnographic observation and field notes, enabled the researchers to retrieve memories of captivity and life histories of black families, who still hold important accounts for understanding our colonial past. The synchronicity of the ethnographic account was questioned by the diachronic nature of the historical facts concerning the process of settlement of the region, profoundly changed by the development of coffee plantations in the Paraíba Valley, in the state of São Paulo, during the early nineteenth century. This work is the result of a doctoral thesis entitled “A Divorce between School and Community? Bananal-SP, an ‘open-air laboratory’ in the Historic Valley of the Paraíba do Sul River”. Beyond the walls of the local school, there were memories, songs and dances that are characteristic of the black populations brought by the African diaspora, such as the chorus in Jongo songs, which reveal their cultural heritage. This thesis arguments that the high rates of black families, historiographically confirmed, enabled the maintenance of the individual and collective memory of Africans and AfroBrazilians in the locality. These subaltern memories unveil a worldview, as well as black cultural manifestations that resisted the passages of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, up until the beginning of the twenty-first. The cosmogony present to this day in the city gives historical particularity to the identity of the local population, as well as demonstrates the cultural diversity in the State of São Paulo.

A descrição sincrônica da vida cotidiana desta pequena cidade, construída a partir da observação etnográfica e do caderno de campo, possibilitou aos pesquisadores resgatar memórias do cativeiro e histórias de vida de algumas famílias negras, que guardam relatos importantes sobre nosso passado colonial. A sincronia do relato etnográfico foi questionada pela diacronia dos fatos históricos referentes ao povoamento da região, transformado pelo desenvolvimento das lavouras de café no Vale do Paraíba paulista, no início do Novecentos. Este trabalho é fruto da tese de doutorado “Um Divórcio entre Escola e Comunidade? Bananal-SP, um ‘laboratório a céu aberto’ no Vale Histórico do Rio Paraíba do Sul”. Para além dos muros da escola local, havia memórias, músicas e danças característicos das populações negras trazidas pela diáspora africana, tal como a antifonia do canto no Jongo, que revela sua herança cultural. Argumentamos que foram as altas taxas de famílias negras, historiograficamente confirmadas, que possibilitaram a manutenção da memória individual e coletiva dos africanos e afro-brasileiros na localidade. Essas memórias subalternas desvelam uma visão de mundo, além de manifestações culturais negras que resistiram às passagens dos séculos XIX, XX até o início do XXI. A cosmogonia, presente até hoje na cidade, dá particularidade histórica à identidade da população local e demonstra a diversidade cultural no estado de São PauloRede de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2019-01-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/37710.19092/reed.v5i3.377Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal Studies; Vol. 5 No. 3 (2018): Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal StudiesRevista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito; v. 5 n. 3 (2018): Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2319-081710.19092/reed.v5i3reponame:Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinstname:Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)instacron:RPEDporhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/377/pdfCopyright (c) 2019 Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessda Costa Vitorino, DiegoAndreatta Whitaker, Dulce Consuelo2020-07-05T16:40:50Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/377Revistahttps://reedrevista.org/reedONGhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/oaimvchein@gmail.com||reed.revista@gmail.com2319-08172319-0817opendoar:2020-07-05T16:40:50Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito - Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)false
