TRAJES TÍPICOS
VAQUEIRO; Vestido de couro da cabeça aos pés, o vaqueiro enfrenta a natureza jnóspita do cerrado e do sertão, em seu trabalho ao ar livre. 0 chapéu protege sua cabeça do sol, gibão e perneiras evitam que seu corpo se fira d urante as carreiras a cavalo, ajuntando e conduzindo bois. Desde os primórdios da colonização, a criação de gado contribui para a ocupação das regiões interioranas, corn terras menos favoráveis às monoculturas estabelecidas no litoral. 0 historiador Capistrano de Abreu falou de uma "civilização do couro" na qual tudo, da casa à alimentação, girava em torno do boi e das tecnologias de processamento de sua carne, couro e chifres. Longe da disciplina rigida do trabalho vigiado nas grandes plantações, a pecuária institui um outro modo de vida, no qual o trabalhador comum tinha relativa autono mia. Talvez por isso, o vaqueiro veio a simbolizar, para os brasileiros, a independência e grande resistência fisica e moral. ELIZABETH TRAVASSOS Coordenação de Folclore e Cultura Popular — FUNARTE |
