Resumo:
One of the most important scholar of folklore knowledge in Brazil was Luis da Camara
Cascudo. Around to 1930-1960 the intellectual began to publish his folk research and start to
interact with the Brazilian Folkloric Movement (MFB). This movement that was composed of
intellectuals and since the end of the XIX promoted a dialogue around the folk studies,
seeking the institutionalization of this knowledge in the country. At the moment the Cascudo's
product is fabricated, other intellectuals are also do the same. Not being isolated in this
scenario of folk composition, Cascudo sought to establish intellectual and institutional
connections. In order that, the objective of this work is to problematize the participation of
Cascudo in the Brazilian Folkloric Movement (1939-1963), analyzing how their relations of
knowledge and power were being instituted and developed at the scope of the Movement.
Therefore, was used sources as a consequence: bibliographical and institutional, produced by
Cascudo, Renato Almeida, Edison Carneiro and Rossini Tavares de Lima; depositions; letters
from Ludovicus – Instituto Câmara Cascudo (ICC); periodicals from the Biblioteca Nacional
(BN), the Centro de Documentação Cultural Eloy de Sousa (CEDOC) and sources of Centro
Nacional de Folclore e Cultura Popular (CNFCP). In theoretical terms, the work was concepts
of Intellectual, Sociability Network, Institution and Power-knowledge, respectively outlined
by, Jean-François Sirinelli and Michel Foucault, and operationalized through the methodology
of speech analysis of the latter.
