Resumo
This study sought to understand how the finding myth of Santa do Rosário constitutes the
Congadas of Catalão in its reaffirmation in the annual rituals and festivities of Nossa Senhora
do Rosário’s Festival in this city, from the studies by Brandão (1985). The material of our
investigation was made up of narratives and oral songs about this festivity, related to history,
life and experiences of members from this cultural and religious manifestation. The narratives
were enunciated by ten (10) participants, recorded in field, which were transcribed and
analyzed. Thereby, this study becomes relevant, because aims to reach the community of
‘dançadores’, the trading population and researchers by showing the myth’s dynamics in the
festival, as culture and religious manifestation in the city. The material of our analysis to
identify, describe and analyze the myth as a historical reinforcement had as study perspective
the interrelationship between language and culture in the understanding of the linguistic and
cultural elements of the founding and legitimizing myth of this practice of religion and
popular culture in central Brazil, sitting the research in the bias of Anthropological
Linguistics. For this purpose, we used the studies by Coelho (2006), Fiorin (2003), Platão
(2001), Saussure (2012), Sapir (1969), Bakhtin (1987), Bosi (1987; 1992), Machado (2002),
among others, which has guided us. The research is of mixed qualitative nature, because it
involved study in laboratory and field. Our results confirmed the hypothesis that in various
forms of language of ‘congadeiros’ (in our case, narratives and songs), we can understand the
configurations of Nossa Senhora do Rosário’s Festival, because in these forms the mythical
plot of the finding of Santa do Rosário was reaffirmed in an uncontested way, recreating
historical and linguistic memories of this community.
