Negation, Not-knowing, and the Dark in Brazilian and Cuban Creole Forms of Religion

Negation, Not-knowing, and the Dark in Brazilian and Cuban Creole Forms of Religion

Diana Espírito Santo is associate professor of social anthropology at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. In this lecture, she examined the ambiguous, dark spaces of paradox from the point of view of two distinct ethnographic sites: Brazil and Cuba, with Umbanda and creole espiritismo respectively. In exploring the various vignettes—of a self that must forget itself in order to retain its mode of conscious trance in Brazil, of the impossibility of knowing one’s spirits in a multiplying metamorphic cosmos in Cuba, both signaling the general breakdown of reality and its knowability—she thought through an interstitial, in-between, impossible logic, and called out the gaps in scholarly approach premised on the notion that knowledge is there to be grasped, with the right techniques. This event took place on February 16, 2022. Learn more: https://cswr.hds.harvard.edu/transcendence-and-transformation
