Resumo: Using Brazilian popular songs as its research basis, this paper intended to investigate how, throughout the history of the country’s music, the image and aspects of the Iemanjá orisha where taken from the ceremonial yards and incorporated as Brazilian cultural elements, becoming present in song lyrics as something common, usual. For this, we used the Thematic Content Analysis technique. A total of 193 songs were submitted to the analysis.  In general, it is possible to claim that the descriptions of Iemanjá in the analyzed songs were distanced from a religious and mythological cosmovision. The variation occurred between 1933 and 2014 contributed to the popularization of Iemanjá in the popular music and, at the same time, to her representation as an autonomous figure in relation to the Afro-Brazilian religions.

Para tanto, utilizamos a técnica da análise temática de conteúdo. Um total de 193 músicas foi submetido à análise. Em geral, é possível afirmar que as descrições de Iemanjá nas músicas analisadas se distanciaram da cosmovisão religiosa e da mitologia. As variações ocorridas entre 1933 e 2014 contribuíram para a popularização de Iemanjá na canção popular, e, ao mesmo tempo, para sua reapresentação enquanto figura autônoma em relação às religiões afro-brasileiras.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2019-06-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/article/view/684510.35699/1676-1669.2019.6845Memorandum: Memory and History in Psychology ; Vol. 36 (2019); 1-21Memorandum: Memória e História em Psicologia; v. 36 (2019); 1-211676-1669reponame:Memorandum (Belo Horizonte)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/article/view/6845/10744Copyright (c) 2019 Memorandum: Memória e História em Psicologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessQueiroga, Luanda do CarmoNascimento, Adriano Roberto Afonso do2023-07-17T14:47:14Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/6845Revistahttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/memorandum/oaidecae@fae.ufmg.br1676-16691676-1669opendoar:2023-07-17T14:47:14Memorandum (Belo Horizonte) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
