description This article considers the incorporation of categories from the Afro-American and indigenous worlds, by intellectuals who were diverse but equally influenced by primitivism in the fields of Latin American anthropology and art, between the 1920s and 1960s: the Brazilian Mário de Andrade, the Cuban Alejo Carpentier, the French (specialist in Afro-Brazilian religions) Roger Bastide and the Argentine Rodolfo Kusch. In particular, the work focuses on the questioning of synthetic dialectics, identity stability, and even Western rationalism as a whole, to some extent, by these authors, as a result of deep familiarity with central concepts in those popular grassroots cultures, especially in the areas of religiosity and mythical thinking. Indirectly, the article seeks to contribute to the rethinking of intellectual history, to attend to the influence not only of the ideas that come from the literate universes, but also of the basic cosmovisions (alien - at least partially - to Western rationalism), with which intellectuals can establish solid links to the point of formulating new categories, even questioning the Eurocentrism of the dominant theoretical models.

Este artículo considera la incorporación de categorías provenientes de los mundos afroamericanos e indígenas, por parte de intelectuales diversos pero igualmente influidos por el primitivismo en los campos de la antropología y del arte latinoamericanos, entre las década de 1920 y de 1960: el brasileño Mário de Andrade, el cubano Alejo Carpentier, el francés (especialista en religiosidades afrobrasileñas) Roger Bastide y el argentino Rodolfo Kusch. En particular, el trabajo se centra en el cuestionamiento de la dialéctica sintética, de la estabilidad identitaria, y hasta del racionalismo occidental en su conjunto, en alguna medida, por parte de estos autores, como resultado de la familiaridad profunda con conceptos centrales en esas culturas populares de base, especialmente en las áreas de la religiosidad y el pensamiento mítico. Indirectamente, el artículo busca contribuir a repensar la historia intelectual, para atender a la influencia no solo de las ideas que provienen de los universos letrados, sino también a las cosmovisiones de base (ajenas –al menos parcialmente– respecto del racionalismo occidental), con las cuales los intelectuales pueden establecer vínculos sólidos al punto de formular nuevas categorías, llegando a cuestionar el eurocentrismo de los modelos teóricos dominantes. Este artigo considera a incorporação de categorias provindas dos mundos afro-americanos e indígenas, por parte de intelectuais diversos mas igualmente influídos pelo primitivismo nos campos da antropologia e da arte latino-americanos, entre as décadas de 1920 e de 1960: o brasileiro Mário de Andrade, o cubano Alejo Carpentier, o francês (especialista em religiosidades afro-brasileiras) Roger Bastide e o argentino Rodolfo Kusch. Em particular, o trabalho centra-se na posta em questão da dialética sintética, da estabilidade identitária, e até do racionalismo ocidental em seu conjunto, em alguma medida, por parte desses autores, como resultado da familiaridade profunda com conceitos centrais nessas culturas populares de base, especialmente nas áreas da religiosidade e do pensamento mítico. Indiretamente, o artigo procura contribuir a repensar a história intelectual, para atender à influência não só das ideias que provêm dos universos letrados, mas também às cosmovisões de base (afastadas –pelo menos parcialmente– respeito do racionalismo ocidental), com as quais os intelectuais podem estabelecer vínculos sólidos até o ponto de formular novas categorias, chegando a por em questão o eurocentrismo dos modelos teóricos dominantes.
