Resumo: This paper analyses the Curupira myth configuration in the oral narratives of the interior of the Amazon rainforest, through which it is possible to obtain a portrait of this supernatural being who, according to Cascudo (2010), is the most vivid god of the tropical forests.  We focus on analysing the representation of the myth, observing the way in which its image is preserved in the popular tradition of the inhabitants of the forest. The stories also invite us to reflect on the role played by the tutelary genius of the forest in the everyday life of the so-called povos da floresta (forest peoples), especially in the rural setting of the riverine interior. Curupira's mission is evident in the protection and defence of the forest, an element common to all the stories studied.

Nos centramos en analizar la representación de la mencionada entidad, observando la manera cómo se preserva su imagen en la tradición popular de los habitantes de la floresta, a bordo de la canoa que lleva a las entrañas de la enigmática y fascinante Amazonia. Los relatos, además, nos invitan a reflexionar sobre el papel que juega el genio tutelar de la floresta en la cotidianidad de los llamados povos da floresta (pueblos de la selva), especialmente en el marco rural del interior ribereño. La misión de Curupira es evidente en lo que concierne a la protección y a la defensa de la selva, elemento común a todos los relatos estudiados.Nepan Editora2023-07-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufac.br/index.php/mui/article/view/634310.29327/210932.11.1-8Muiraquitã: Revista de Letras e Humanidades; v. 11 n. 1 (2023): Muiraquitã: Revista de Letras e Humanidades2525-59241807-185610.29327/210932.11.1reponame:Muiraquitã (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Acre (UFAC)instacron:UFACporhttps://periodicos.ufac.br/index.php/mui/article/view/6343/4220 Araújo, Gracineia dos Santosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-08-04T00:33:47Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/6343Revistahttps://periodicos.ufac.br/revista/index.php/mui/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufac.br/revista/index.php/mui/oaimuiraquita.ppgli@ufac.br2525-59241807-1856opendoar:2023-08-04T00:33:47Muiraquitã (Online) - Universidade Federal do Acre (UFAC)false
