RESUMO

The aim of this work is to investigate a subtle passage from the oral to the body memory within the Congado ritual of the Arturos community, situated in the city of Contagem, near Belo Horizonte, in the State of Minas Gerais. The main characteristic of the community is that it has succeeded in keeping its traditions which have been transmitted from one generation to another. The teachings have been passed down from the elder to the younger members orally, through the chants, the dance and by reviving the sacred ritual. By holding the feast of Liberty in May, which celebrates the abolition of slavery, and the feast of Nossa Senhora do Rosário in October, which celebrates the day of her birth, the Arturos are rewriting their history, sharing the social memory of their historical past and aiming at new meanings in the present.
