Synopsis

"Amazonian Mythology - Men, Monsters and Gods," by Carujo, delves into the depths of the Brazilian imagination, exploring the rich tapestry of myths and legends that inhabit the Amazon. The work unravels the intricate relationship between myth and legend, revealing how reality is transformed into narrative and how our indigenous ancestors populated the exuberant nature with mythical beings, weaving a unique worldview.

The book investigates how this ancestral tradition intertwined with the European and African cultures, brought by colonizers and enslaved people, respectively. This cultural miscegenation enriched the popular imagination, resulting in a complex and fascinating tapestry of stories that reflect the diversity and richness of Brazilian identity.

Through an engaging narrative, Carujo invites us to explore a magical universe where men, monsters, and gods meet, revealing the power of oral tradition and the importance of preserving Brazil's intangible cultural heritage.
