Mapa aberto para uma ecologia científico-poética

Abstract

Sciences are human constructions ordered from different cognitive models such as the scientific knowledge and the traditional knowledge. In essence, this knowledge result from processes that fragment and dissociate the picture into small parts, built from partial conceptions of the world. Despite this fragmentation is a necessary mechanism to knowledge building, it is necessary to invest an exercise of reconnecting what is known in both knowledge construction models. This dialogue opens possibilities to understand ecology from a diversity and dynamics point of view that is not limited on the species, but also on the knowledge. This research aimed to constellate some possibilities to operate this dialogue between scientific knowledge and traditional knowledge, weaving points to an open map of a Brazilian‟s northeastern semi-arid ecology. In order to do this, we used two approaches: 1) books and scientific articles, representing the narrative of an analytical science; and 2) song fragments of Luiz Gonzaga‟s lyrics, representing a more sensitive logic of the environment. This second approach was designed in the frameworks of a cartography, considering only copyrighted compositions and songs related to ecological dynamics. Using these filters was sampled 19 songs, released between 1947 and 1989, from which I proceeded a lexical analysis (Bardin, 2011). This dialogue between the musical narratives of Luiz Gonzaga and the references of a standard view of Sciences has shown possible ways of dialogue between scientific culture and traditional knowledge to woven discussions about the ecological dynamics.
