Resumo: | Based on a field research conducted in the State of Maranhão (Brazil), we consider aspects of empowerment prompted by a traditional female leadership existent in several cities of that state. This headship was established in the context of the celebrations in honor of Holy Spirit and provides material which raise interesting questions, such as: Has the female leadership empowered women who play during this festivity? How do the women who participate evaluate their own role within the overall context of the ceremony? Did their headship contribute to undermining racial, social, and gender prejudices? Although our object of study belongs to the field of cultural studies, encompassing both performative and representational aspects of this widely spread Brazilian manifestation, in order to exemplify empowerment, these questions will be addressed having as a case study a group of women called Caixeiras do Divino [The Holy Spirit’s Drumers], who are the responsible for the general organization of the ceremony. |

Este liderazgo fue establecido en el contexto de las celebraciones del Divino Espíritu Santo y proporciona material para preguntas interesantes, tales como: ¿Empoderó este liderazgo femenino a las mujeres que juegan durante esta festividad? ¿Cómo evalúan estas mujeres su papel dentro del contexto general de la ceremonia? ¿Ha contribuido este liderazgo a minimizar los prejuicios raciales, sociales y de género? Aunque nuestro objeto de estudio pertenece al campo de estudio de la cultura, abarcando aspectos performáticos y representativos de esta manifestación ampliamente difundidos en todo Brasil, con el fin de ejemplificar el empoderamiento, estas cuestiones se llevarán a cabo teniendo como caso de estudio a las Caixeiras do Divino, grupo de mujeres responsables de la organización general de la ceremonia.Tendo por base uma pesquisa de campo realizada no Maranhão (Brasil), consideramos alguns aspectos do empoderamento engendrados por meio de uma tradicional liderança feminina presente em várias cidades deste estado.
