LEITE, Roberta Vasconcelos  y  MAHFOUD, Miguel. Elaborating traditions in contemporaneity: Ausier and the preservation of chorinho. Rev. abordagem gestalt. [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.2, pp.145-156. ISSN 1809-6867.  https://doi.org/10.18065/RAG.2018v24n2.3.

We aim to investigate how the tradition is elaborated by a contemporary guardian of memories: Ausier dos Santos, founder of the musical bar Pedacinhos do Céu (Belo Horizonte - MG). We conducted a semi-structured interview, analyzed phenomenologically. Responding to the call to constitute a work of preservation, he elaborates the past and otherness as presences from what he realizes his own being. Accepting sacrifices to dedicate oneself to what comes from another means that he is faithful to his own experience, opening the way for the update of the tradition in a personal process of seeking to contribute to the constitution of the world. We conclude that to give continuity in his own way what has been transmitted to him, Ausier reaffirms the centrality of the values that converge in an ideal that tradition provokes in itself. Realizing that his ideal was given to him and overcomes himself, he lives his work as gratitude and given himself to something that gives a place in the world and realizes his own self.

Palabras clave : Tradition; Guardians of memories; Phenomenology.
