SUMMARY:

This study corresponds to a trajectory of research in dance that started during the graduation
period and ended up in this master's thesis. Anchored in the methodologies: Autoetinography
(SANTOS, 2017) and “Game of Poetic Construction” (MACHADO, 2020), the research is
developed from the understanding of the body that inhabits the boundaries between the Oral
Tradition and the Performing Arts, and that when move tells stories and announces ancestry,
which we call here “Corpo Griot”. The term Griot, in the West African region, refers to the
figure of a guardian and orator of the cultural knowledge of his community whose function is to
pass on knowledge from generation to generation, based on orality (BÂ, 1982). In investigating
this body, we are interested in understanding how it organizes itself and creates strategies when
in the process of creation or scenic situation. From narratives of ancestral memories, both from
my maternal family and from Capoeira Angola, a web of personal and political questions about
the body and its history is formed in the web of this study, reflecting ethnic-racial issues in life
and in performing arts, linked to my trajectory. This plot, turning to research into dance,
engenders an internal dramaturgy, the Tramaturgy, a methodological process that has been developed during this research, the way in which it woven meanings between: memories, narratives, writings and the creation of the soil “Urucum'go”.
