| Sumario: | Language is one of the main symbols of a culture. Without language it is impossible to define identities and motherlands, to analyse working relationships, processes of integration and segregation of a people, and, mainly, communication between different populations. Despite the current tendency towards the overcoming of national borders, due to the increased communications brought about by globalisation, this overcoming occurs in different ways, depending on social class. The rich have access to the internet, to good movies, books, songs, newspapers, documentaries, photographs, in dialogues regulated by codes based in the native language and, in some cases, in a second language. All that is left to the poor is the language of waters, rivers, of the kenês, and an oral tradition charged with metaphors and puns. This article is an extended version of my master’s dissertation and aims at analysing the backgrounds and identities of rural workers migrated into Acre from Central and Southern Brazil. These backgrounds and identities are in turn revealed by metaphors, in a way to reinforce the literary and linguistic value of those for the preservation of memory and identity. This work is based on cultural studies as described by Raymond Williams (1979) and Thompson (1998). |
