MANIFESTAÇÕES CAMPONESAS EM GOIÁS: PERSPECTIVAS PARA UMA PESQUISA HISTÓRICO-CULTURAL

Abstract

Starting from the confirmation that the peasant and his culture are treated by marginal means, specially by historiographers, the article makes some reflexions on the cultural history and on the concepts of culture and peasant. It emphasizes the necessity of the study of the peasant culture as the culture of a subordinated class, that suffers a capitalist exploration, but has its own desires, its practices and conditions of resistence. At last, the article indicates some elements for a cultural-historica cresearch of the peasant manifestations in Goiás.

Key-words: Rural; Peasant Manifestations; Cultural Practices.
