Resumo: | Monastic orders represent a particular social group in the LatinAmerican religious field highly influenced by the Catholic Church. This articlefocuses on monks belonging to the Benedictine Order. It was established in thesixteenth century in Brazil and later, in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, inArgentine and other countries of Hispanic America like Chile, Uruguay, andParaguay. In this study I both review the history of these monastic communitiesand their specific lifestyle marked by a strong ascetic character. I argue that it is thedaily exercise of such a practice that transforms monks in collective agents in anongoing state of liminality, and their monasteries in symbolic spaces for cultactivity. |

Esta se instaló durante el siglo XVI en Brasil y más tardíamente, en los siglos XIX y XX, en la Argentina y otros países de la América Hispana tales como Chile, Uruguay y Paraguay. Aquí repaso la historicidad de estas comunidades monacales y enfatizo la especificidad de su forma de vida signada por un carácter ascético. En este sentido, sostengo que es el ejercicio cotidiano de esta práctica que transforma a los monjes en agentes colectivos en estado de liminalidad permanente y a sus monasterios en espacios simbólicos de culto.Las órdenes monásticas representan un espacio social particular dentro del campo religioso de América Latina influenciado por el catolicismo.
