Resumo

This Thesis of Master aims to contribute to the construction of analytical devices which allow the comprehension of the umbandista movement from an ethnographic and anthropological perspective, considering lived experience as preponderant factor in the theory’s horizon. The assumption is the theoretical openness to the native’s point of view (GEERTZ, 1997) and the attention to native concepts (STRATHERN, 2014), thereby configuring an epistemological humbleness, based on the ethnographic encounter in which researcher and researched share an intersubjective experience in and of the time – the exercise of coevalness, defined by Fabian (2013). Through fieldwork, interviews and conversation between august 2015 to august 2016 we could see that, for “filhos de Oxalá da Casa de Pai Joaquim”, Umbanda is Unified Knowledge whose origins date back to Lemuria and Atlantida. This text methodologically combines three aspects of umbandista knowlegde as it stands in “umbanda de Pai Joaquim”, namely, worldview, ritual and experience. We conclude that the native concept of Aumbandan has theoretical implications to the study of Umbanda, especially the serious need to take it as an epistemology.
