Orixality in Africas-Brazils: Outlining an Aesthetic-Epistemological Perspective in Brazilian Popular Philosophy
Abstract
This chapter outlines the initial theoretical contours of an aesthetic-epistemological imaginative space referred to as Orixality. It also introduces the foundations of the Africas-Brazil category. The analysis considers a range of aesthetic, cultural and ethical codes rooted in Brazilian culture, more specifically those situated in Afro-diasporic religiosities and popular thought. In dialogue with Brazilian popular philosophy (Haddock-Lobo, 2020) intersecting with various fields of knowledge, the article proposes an ethical perspective shaped by multiple artistic languages. What is meant by Orixality becomes a central element in the process of construction of identities and cultural assemblages in contemporary contexts.
