Abstract

The notions of “body”and “soul,” within the dual universe of the Marubo from southwestern Amazonia, intersect other contributions to this volume: first, in view of the present concern, from a universalizing perspective, on epistemological issues in Amazonia; and second, in view of a now ever-present relevance of indigenous ontology (here more as the “presentation,” rather than the “investigation” or “account” of the origins of the cosmos and all forms of being therein) vis-à-vis the knowledge, with a particularizing tenor, of the performance of a cognitive ethos.

As noções de “corpo” e “alma,” dentro do universo dual dos Marubo do Sudoeste da Amazônia, se achegam a outras contribuições a este volume em vista, primeiro, da presente preocupação, em perspectiva universalizante, com questões epistemológicas na Amazônia; segundo, duma relevância, ora bem perene, da ontologia indígena (aqui mais enquanto “presentificação” que “investigação” ou “relato” das origens do cosmos e de todas as formas de ser que nele se dá) para com o conhecimento, de tendência particularizante, da performance dum ethos cognitivo.
