Among the questions that emerge in the current pandemic, it is emphasized that it is possible to research, from an ethnographic point of view, facing the restrictions of various orders to face-to-face social interactions, given the necessary care to avoid the transmission of Covid -19. The present cycle of seminars seeks to dialogue with this reality, with an emphasis on the ongoing changes in urban life, through the approach on ongoing research by members of GEAC (in speech with other researchers), whose impacts resulting from the pandemic have led to both changes contextual, regarding the need for new investigative strategies.

Death continues to pursue the humanities, as a certain future - expected, feared, or postponed -, also disturbing the social sciences and anthropology. In addition to its reflective aspect, which offers us questions about the meaning of existence, through death ethical, political, religious and socioeconomic problems are outlined, associated with health, public security, health policy, geopolitics and biosafety.

Like any art, the routing of death, of the dead and their remnants, whether at the Medical-Legal Institute of Rio de Janeiro, among the Yanomami Indians, or at the Working Group on the Clandestine Ditch of the Perus Cemetery, is always supported by certain ethical principles, specialized procedures, specific rites and meets certain collective values ​​and objectives - to guarantee the transition between life and death, to reaffirm social collectivities and to ensure the continuity of the presence and, at times, to clarify the history.

with Denise Pimenta (PPGAS / USP) and João Felipe Gonçalves (USP)

Due to events related to the Covid-19 pandemic, the event has been postponed and a new date will be announced soon.

Featuring audios and videos recorded in several states, the activity is a trip through Brazil through our popular traditions today, their masters, communities and artists. Discussing issues such as memory linked to composition, the creative tools of oral transmission, complementarity and dilution in the creator / consumer relationship, functionality of formal construction, authorship x recreation and others, these traditions are revealed as contemporary and timeless art.
