As ORIGENS HISTÓRICAS DO LAZER NO SEIO DE UMA SOCIEDADE DE NATUREZA ESCRAVOCRATA
do Brasil colônia a Getúlio Vargas
Abstract
This theoretical essay seeks to offer a possible interpretation of the historical origins of leisure in Brazilian society. Starting from the indications of Marxist thought, and unlike a-historical and phenomenological interpretations of the phenomenon, we seek to demonstrate that leisure, as a manifestation of cultural industries, is the result of an expropriation of popular entertainment. In the specific case of the investigation, it is maintained that the repression that has befallen the playful-religious universe of the black man since colonial times was not only a form of social control, but also a primitive accumulation necessary for the further transformation of the free time on a commodity. Which, certainly, in this society of a slave nature, has particularized the process in racial terms. For this, the investigation uses bibliographic, documentary and literary sources.
