Resumo: Our ancestors developed celebrations that responded to the cult of the stars in the need to acomplish with the ritual of their creed. With the arrival of the Spanish, the Church influenced the cultural repertoire of the towns, the Christian people, adapting them to these same festivities. Hence, the festivals, -some cases- are a product of the mixture between local beliefs and Spanish traditions based on faith. In this work, a theme related to social folklore, festivals and typical characters is exposed, starting from the study of the Mama Negra party, in Latacunga, Cotopaxi province; organized in honor of the Virgin of Mercy or the Most Holy Tragedy. The party takes place in the months of September and November, so it was essential to use descriptive and field research, firstly to characterize each character - define functions - and secondly, to confirm differences and similarities in both periods of celebration - direct observation. Bibliographic sources that included books, articles and other documents related to the subject were used, with the aim of analyzing and determining the folkloric fact of the festival, understanding it as a tourist attraction in Ecuador.

Con la llegada de los españoles, la Iglesia incluyó, en el repertorio cultural de los pueblos, lo cristiano, adaptándolo a estos mismos festejos. De allí, que las fiestas, -en algunos casos- son producto de la mixtura entre las creencias locales y las tradiciones españolas fundamentadas en la fe. En este trabajo se expone una temática relacionada con el folklore social, las fiestas y personajes típicos, a partir del estudio de la fiesta de la Mama Negra, en Latacunga, provincia de Cotopaxi; organizada en honor a la virgen de la Merced o de la Santísima Tragedia. La fiesta se desarrolla en los meses de septiembre y noviembre, por lo que, fue indispensable utilizar la investigación descriptiva y de campo, en primera instancia para caracterizar a cada personaje - definir funciones- y en segunda, para confirmar diferencias y semejanzas en ambos periodos de celebración -observación directa-. Se utilizaron fuentes bibliográficas que incluyeron libros, artículos y otros documentos relacionados con el tema, con el objetivo de analizar y determinar el hecho folklórico de la fiesta, comprendiéndola como un atractivo turístico del Ecuador.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2020-06-05info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/67110.1590/SciELOPreprints.671spahttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/671/863Copyright (c) 2020 Sylvia Herrera, Nataly Cácereshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessHerrera, Sylvia Cáceres, Natalyreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2020-05-29T20:06:51Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/671Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2020-05-29T20:06:51SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
