Identity and Ethnicity View of the czech ethnocultural diversity in Rio Grande do Sul
Santos, Anežka ; Halbich, Marek (advisor) ; Ezzeddine, Petra (referee)
The aim of this work is to reconstruct the history of the life of the Bo?mios living in the Brazilian state Rio Grande do Sul. This will be done through identifying the importance they ascribe to their tradition, history and memory, as well as, their activity on the Rio Grande social, economic and political scene. Also, it will be necessary to map out their symbolical world - regenerate their collective memory in relationship to important circumstances that led to their immigration to Brazil and their subsequent arrival to Rio Grande do Sul. This research brings description and analysis of the cultural aspects of the Bo?mios in Rio Grande do Sul. For this purpose, the paper draws on the foundations of the life stories of the important representatives of this culture. Recently they showed a great interest in getting to know their real origins, something we could call the search for ethnic identity as a subject of the history of immigration. They founded compatriotic groups, started learning Czech language that has never been their mother tongue and attempted to renew contacts with the Czech Republic. All these circumstances served as an impulse for this research.
