Afro-Brazilian Religions in Japan: The Flux and Re-territorialization of People, Spirits, and Materialities
Wednesday, May 22nd, 18:00
Speaker: Daniela Calvo
The spread of Afro-Brazilian religions—especially Umbanda and, to a lesser extent, Candomblé—has followed the flux of the migrations of Brazilians (mostly of Japanese descent) looking for work and better living conditions in Japan. This presentation will
show some preliminary results on how religious experiences are entangled with migration, the search for healing, life plans, the possibility of people and objects to circulate between Japan and Brazil, and the complex relationship with Japanese society,
nature, and spirits.
Daniela Calvo is a JSPS Postdoctoral Fellow at the Gradu-ate School of Human and Environmental Studies, Kyoto Uni-versity, and is cur-rently working on a project on Umbanda in contemporar y Japan. She holds a PhD in Social Scienc-es (State University of Rio de Janeiro) and a PhD in Mathe-matics (University of Pisa).
This hybrid lecture will be held on site (email required in advance) and via Zoom (no registration required).
