Abstract

This study aims at investigating the constitution of the identity of quilombola communities in Brazil through their body practices by identifying in the production of knowledge specific themes, research approaches, theories and concepts that have been mobilized. It was about a theoretical research of bibliographic type, characterized as a narrative review. The literature survey was carried out based on databases by means of keywords that led us to 77 indexed articles. After the operation of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 11 articles were analyzed. The authors supported themselves in theoretical discussions, which involve concepts or categories about memory, hybridity, ethnogenesis, body techniques, ethnicity, popular culture, identity and cultural heritage. As a result, through the investigated body practices we were able to observe 10 different manifestations that are characterized as collective community and regional practices. Thus, the quilombola identity introduces itself in plural aspects, through the inexistence of a quilombola identity and the prevalence of quilombola identities in the plural.
