Old age, rural world and modern societies: intinerary tensions

Assuming that the city and the country are spaces marked by traditions and values, this work deals with the specificity of elderliness in rural areas.

description Assuming that the city and the country are spaces marked by traditions and values, this work deals with the specificity of elderliness in rural areas. We seek to understand, from an anthropological perspective, how social life is produced and reproduced by the elderly in these areas. Our interest is to look to the society where they are inscribed, as well as to how they are referred to by this society. The proposed analysis has its focus on Portuguese rural areas and, in a comparative perspective, instigates us to explore the practices and representations of old age in Brazil rural areas.

Este trabalho trata da velhice no meio rural e tem por pressuposto que o viver na cidade e no campo apresenta aspectos peculiares enquanto espaço marcado por tradições e valores. Assume-se aqui a perspectiva da antropologia, a fim de compreender como a vida social é produzida e reproduzida por idosos no campo. É importante olhar a sociedade onde eles estão inseridos e o como ela se refere a esses sujeitos. A interpretação dos processos de vida contempla a velhice no meio rural português e num pensar comparativo instiga-nos a explorar as práticas e representações da velhice no contexto rural brasileiro.
