Congada da Lapa and Afro-Brazilian religiosity in Paraná: - Popular culture, history and memory

Religiosity, as a cultural aspect, arises in different ways according to the environment in which it is inserted, its conditioning factors delimited by historical-geographical characteristics, covered by social reasons. The congada is no different, and viewing it with the care of a non-material heritage preserves a memory and allows the concepts of sustainability to be applied, in other words, guaranteeing future generations access to the goods we enjoy. This study is based on the consolidation of a popular system of expression, which in general presents the views of those who produce and observe it, thus allowing the maintenance of a cycle that guarantees access to local history.
