Open-access The Macuxis Laugh with the Jabuti or from Trickery to Questioning by Laughter

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

    ABSTRACT

    Based mainly on a sequence of eight narratives interconnected by a laughter of the Jabuti (tortoise), told by the indigenous Macuxi Caetano Raposo, laughter and its unfoldings are discussed in the context of these narratives. In addition, possible interpretations for laughter are sought in the social organization of the Macuxi indigenous people, such as laughter as questioning and resistance in face of oppression.
