Boa Noite, Pra Quem É De Boa Noite

Umbanda is an Afro-Brazilian religion where the manifestation of spirits takes place through trances.During the dances, these energies are evoked through chants, denominated sung points, a sort of mantra, which are fundamental to the rites.Umbanda's cosmology possesses in its structures a variety of entities, most of them social types remarkably marginalized and derived from popular context.Among the archetypes is the trickster, known in Brazil as "malandro", an actor present in the voids of the margins, rooted in the formation of Brazilian society.Throughout the decades and changes in the arts, literature, historical and social contexts, parties and rites, the "malandro" welcomed various aesthetic, performative and psychological molds.However, the typical Rio de Janeiro representative of the 1920s and 1930s, wearing his white suit and Panama hat, crystallized himself as one of the symbols of a notion of Brazilian identity and, in the Umbanda, was incorporated and his dimensions of mischief resignified so that he could act.In the category of the so-called "malandros", Zé Pelintra, or "Seu Zé", is a well-known figure.During visitations to the Caboclo Arruda temple, in the Valqueire neighborhood, he narrates his relationship with the universe in which he is inserted and tries to clarify the new directions taken by other "malandros" who have left the carnal life and migrated to other paths.In order to guarantee the conservation of such character in memory, the present work aims to analyze, through the sung points of Umbanda, itself and its characteristic elements that determine it in the profane and sacred context
