Cultura fotográfica no Distrito Felizardo - CE (1930 - 2000).

Abstract

This study aims to understand the photographic culture in Felizardo District, Ipaumirim, Ceará, Brazil, between 1930-2000, discussing the relation between history and photography, seeking to understand photography inserted in a network of individual and social meanings. The study is based on the understanding that photography is a historical source, being valuable to the historian because it is a social and cultural product and, therefore, contains social and cultural meanings in the individual and collective spheres. To analyze photography in its cultural and subjective constructions in Felizardo District (1930-2000), this study is based on perspectives such as those of Kossoy (2001), Canabarro (2005), Turazzi (1998) among others relevant researchers in the historiographic field. From a methodological point of view, it became important to use Oral History from a set of interviews with residents of the district.
