A indumentária tradicional masculina na Ilha de Taquile, Puno/Peru: uma análise etnográfica

Abstract

The work analyzed the male clothing on the island of Taquile, Puno/Peru, establishing a relationship between this type of traditional Andean clothing and the tourist exhibition, seeking to show that such visibility constitutes a way of cultural resistance, understanding culture as a symbolic system, in which social actors give meaning to the webs of meaning they have spun. In order to carry out the investigation, there was a need for a bibliographic review allied to an ethnographic research in which what was observed was converted into writing. The research concludes that Taquilenha men's clothing maintains an affinity between tourist exhibition and cultural resistance, insofar as tourism, as the main source of income on the Island, reinforces artisanal production, as a commercial product, while preserving the ancestral Taquileño textile tradition, as an intangible heritage of humanity.
