Abstract
No contexto de uma série de encontros entre pessoas zo'é e tiriyó na região da fronteira Brasil-Suriname, o presente artigo aborda a experiência de Kita, jovem zo’é que em 2010 viajou com alguns chefes e pastores tiriyó e permaneceu na aldeia Kwamalasamutu, no sul do Suriname, por alguns meses. A partir de dois relatos de Kita, procuro seguir as múltiplas conexões por ele mobilizadas e articulá-las a problemas relevantes da etnologia das Guianas. Seguindo a proposta metodológica de S. Oakdale (2007) no sentido de ancorar a “economia simbólica da alteridade” em autobiografias ameríndias, o objetivo é imbricar a crônica de acontecimentos recentes e a etnografia de conceitos e relações ameríndias.
Translated Abstract
In the context of a series of encounters between Zo’é and Tiriyó people in the Brazil–Suriname border region, this article addresses the experience of Kita, a young Zo’é who, in 2010, traveled with some Tiriyó chiefs and pastors and stayed in the village of Kwamalasamutu, in southern Suriname, for a few months. Drawing on two accounts by Kita, I seek to follow the multiple connections he mobilized and link them to relevant issues in the ethnology of the Guianas. Following S. Oakdale’s (2007) methodological proposal of anchoring the “symbolic economy of otherness” in Amerindian autobiographies, the aim is to intertwine the chronicle of recent events with the ethnography of Amerindian concepts and relations.
