Resumo:
The present work is a study on popular Catholicism stands in Belém - Pará, it is an exercise of analyzing elements of the social imaginary of the devotees of the Virgin of Nazaré from the elements observed in the narratives of miracles that take the form of testimonies, of which are takes a hermeneutical approach. The research field, that is, the Casa de Plácido, was built around actions that characterizes the dynamics of the testimonies, that is, narratives of pilgrimages, healings, graces and miracles. The assumption is that testimonies of miracles are part of a social process, of a religious view of the world that helps to configure and understand the local culture. For this reason, the theoretical instrument chosen for this analysis is the hermeneutics of Paul Ricoeur's testimony, which is a theory to interpret as the testimony of a religious nature and its social meanings expressed in the testimonial narratives of the devotees.
