RESUMO

This thesis is a study of the ecology and cosmology of the Enawene-Nawe, people of the Aruak language, inhabitants of the southern Amazon, in the transitional region between the savanna and the tropical forest. The study explores the interface culture/nature and, based upon ethnographic material, examines the hypothesis that culture is a generic and primary condition and nature a particular moment and secondary, the result of a process of cultural differentiation – a concept diametrically opposed to the theory of evolution, typical of modern scientific thinking.
